Here's some more ideas: First, your website doesn't simply tell me what the site is about (although the flash after I click on more info is really great). Here's some ideas for explanation: Is your girlfriend pissed off for forgetting ALL (or most) of her important dates? The reason for that might not be what you expected...click here to find more. And then explain that the reason is because he doesn't have a good strategy for managing the dates and your website is that 'missing' strategy... OR... Simply connect it to a well known fact. You know, from that book "Made from Stick"...it's a great idea. So, let's find out. Girlfriend and boyfriend sometimes argue a lot >>> What is one of the top 3 reasons for arguing among gfs. and boyfrends...THE MISSING DATES... Also... What are the happiest moments in a relationship...THE IMPORTANT DATES. So your service can be something like "Bringing you happier relationships..." or "Eliminating over 20% of your relationship problems". Of course, giving always some interesting titles that break their guessting machines help sites go viral... Here's an example: "Eliminating over 20% of your relationship problems" is a good headline if you convert is to: "Find out how Get in Her Head" solves over 20% of your relationship problems...and at the end: Sign up for that and that. I don't understand this getting in the "dog house" metaphor (we don't say it that way in my country) but if you say "you got in the dog house" as a signal of getting a problem in a relationship...boy...the possibilities are FREAKING ENDLESS (and Dean described only A FEW). Here's some ideas of mine: Get a picture of a guy in a dog house alone...and a guy out of the dog house with a smoke hot girlfriend...and make your logo say: LEADING YOU FROM HERE (from the first pic) to HERE (the second pic). I have more ideas but these are just few...I'm really in sleep now. Also, would like to suggest on titles like: “10 Things I Know About Your Girlfriend That You Don’t” If after the numbers you insert a noun, in my experience I found this is a HUGE mistake. ALWAYS use intensifier...don't say 10 Things...say 10 SHOCKING/SECRET/MIND-BLOWING/SEXY (usually negative works better...you've seen the tabloid where they have SHOCKING, EYE OPENING, EXCLUSIVE and adjectives like that?) Things or 10 Things I know about your girlfriend that you don't and NEVER WILL (this is intensifier too). I guess the buzz stunt would still work but not for long...as people are realizing this viral tactic there's gonna be competition for some exceptional challenges so you can also use intensfiers here...I not only lived 48 hours but I had the pic of my girlfriend and wrote 30 lines of "I will not act like a jerk". Did that for an hour. The second hour..."I will be a better housband...". Then say if you don't change your behavior in 30 days and if your wife says you're the same you gonna turn your ENTIRE house into a dog house... Having a bone into your head makes you a loser (lol) so that's not a good idea. You can also create a Facebook app or a viral quiz named: How deep are you into the dog house? Then let him/or her give you some details as age and location (for ranking reasons) and then display him/her the results and rankings for how deep are people on their age/location into the dog house. Of course, cooperating with another websites on relationships (that's the niche, right?, also weddings...because you want the husband to remember the dates AT THE START of the marriage...you can even write an article...Why (or xx reasons or funny/shocking/mind-blowing) remember important dates immediately after a marriage and pitch your service :P<p class="top-comments">Current score: <span class="top-comments-karma" id="karma-156202">0</span> <small>(to vote for this comment, please visit the site)</small></p> Hm Dean and Barry you seem to have some similar thinking and creativity patterns as mine…maybe that’s the reason why we’re able to produce viral content and so great results.

Here’s some more ideas:

First, your website doesn’t simply tell me what the site is about (although the flash after I click on more info is really great). Here’s some ideas for explanation:

Is your girlfriend pissed off for forgetting ALL (or most) of her important dates? The reason for that might not be what you expected…click here to find more.

OR…

Simply connect it to a well known fact. You know, from that book “Made from Stick”…it’s a great idea.

So, let’s find out.

Girlfriend and boyfriend sometimes argue a lot >>> What is one of the top 3 reasons for arguing among gfs. and boyfrends…THE MISSING DATES…

Also…

What are the happiest moments in a relationship…THE IMPORTANT DATES. So your service can be something like “Bringing you happier relationships…” or “Eliminating over 20% of your relationship problems”. Of course, giving always some interesting titles that break their guessting machines help sites go viral…

Here’s an example:
“Eliminating over 20% of your relationship problems” is a good headline if you convert is to: “Find out how Get in Her Head” solves over 20% of your relationship problems…and at the end: Sign up for that and that.

All of the ideas, headlines, ect are all killer and I think that with the help of each aspect you mentioned, your site will be a global phenomenon in no time. Plus, its a great site :) If you're targeting males though, I'd suggest possibly rethinking the blue/pink combo as that is a color combo geared towards women more. Something maybe a bit more rustic or dark might work better to attract males when they open your site up.<p class="top-comments">Current score: <span class="top-comments-karma" id="karma-152589">0</span> <small>(to vote for this comment, please visit the site)</small></p> In my opinion, everything you mentioned should be put into action.
