I have created a dating site for a niche community and am in final stages of adding functionality for account upgrade for paid users. I am wondering if anyone knows which payment strategy works best in these situations? Like: Should I charge members for sending emails or should I let the send for free but have them pay to read them? any other ideas?

you should charge members a fixed monthly fee and provide unlimited access to all parts and functionality of the website. just follow the match / singles model as they have made a killing. what is your niche ?

Try going through a pci compliant hosting company to provide security for your customers and peace of mind for yourself.  There are several sites available, just google it.
