The parent company for international gay dating site Gaydar.co.uk is seeking a ‘significant cash investment’ to fund its ‘ambition for global growth’.

Qsoft Consulting owns GaydarRadio and the Gaydar site, which was founded in 1999.

According to 2010 figures, Gaydar.co.uk said it accounted for 45 percent of UK gay and lesbian internet traffic, with six million registered users across more than 140 countries.

GaydarRadio station attracts more than three quarters of a million listeners each month.
