e Deal du Jour is a new French website that is trying to take the [daily deal concept](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/micro-deals) and inject a little romance into it. e Deal du Jour is a website for women (or gay men) that profiles one man a day. Ladies will be able to see the profiled man's picture, bio and what he is looking for in a woman all on one page.

The e Deal du Jour site also provides users with the option to sign up for a [paid membership](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dealio), which gives them access to archived and upcoming profiles. One feature that sets e Deal du Jour apart from other [Internet dating sites](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/accessible-online-dating) is the counter displayed next to the profile picture of each man. Since each man only gets one day of fame, interested women only have a limited amount of time in which to contact them. Another interesting tidbit is that a woman's version of e Deal du Jour may be making its way to the Internet sometime soon. Color me excited.
