Phoenix-Mesa, AZ (1888PressRelease) November 07, 2008 - Fresh out of beta testing since March 2008, SingleMindedWomen.com (SMW), an online web community devoted exclusively to the needs of fabulously unattached women, has helped to dispel the spinster stereotype, welcoming 25,000 single gal visitors per month.

The site provides a place to support and honor a woman's single lifestyle choice within a trusted community where women share their views, find inspirational ideas and discover ways to enhance “single life” with topics ranging from travel, health, careers, dating, finances and parenting.

Founded by 20-year publishing veteran, Allison O’Connor, who had the same experiences many single women face today—cracking the “old boys” network at work, buying a house on her own, traveling solo both for fun and business, investing for her own retirement, and even having a baby as a single woman, the site seeks to inform as well as entertain, single women like her, and younger ones learning as they go.

“The picture painted about single women is that we’re either like Carrie Bradshaw or we’re spinsters, leading these bleak lives,” says O’Connor. “We’re not spinsters; we’re ‘singleistas.’ The truth is there is an estimated 54 million single women living in the U.S today. These women are empowered, both emotionally and financially. I wanted to create a portal so that this demographic can feel its needs are being served.”

Offering different channels, ranging from career to style along with a fully-developed community feature, SMW boasts a team of respected editors and advisors including John Gray and Dr. Keith Ablow.
