San Francisco - Zoosk, an online social dating community, announced on Tuesday that it has raised $6 million in third round financing, led by previous backer Canaan Partners.

Founded in 2007, San Francisco-based Zoosk now claims more than 30 million users.

The company generates revenue from premium memberships, advertising, and the sale of virtual coins that can be used to purchase virtual gifts.

Zoosk, which says it is the top-ranked lifestyle application on Facebook, will use the funds to grow its worldwide market share, and for continued product development.
