Families looking to adopt turn to website

The founder of an online adoption website denied on Monday that he made a profit from the platform but admitted its services can be abused by human traffickers or illegal agencies.

The administrator of tz667.com, who goes by the screen name Lichou, said the website he created in 2007 has helped about 300,000 families with fertility issues adopt children.

The 26-year-old from Sichuan province said the website has more than 20,000 registered members and its forums attract around 3,000 visits on average every day.
