Dating Service Reviews – Which Site Is Best For You?

Which Dating Site Is Right For You?

Online dating websites have the potential to help a lonely bachelor improve his situation. However, do they actually work? Here are three dating service reviews to help you narrow down your choices.

Dating Service Reviews, #1: Match.com

This is a pay site, and it is not cheap. You may shudder at the idea of paying to get a date, especially when you already have to pay so much to keep a date. However, think of it this way: all those young 20 something girls that like to play with people’s hearts are unlikely to pay up. This means that the fees to use a site like Match.com act as a filter, eliminating the romance riff raff.

Match.com is not the expensive site, thankfully, though it will run you around $40 a month. The site takes itself seriously. Unlike some sites whose only goal is to get as many members as possible, and then string those members along by offering them dead-end “matches”, Match.com is a community of real singles looking for real mates. Match.com respects this and from the moment you sign up, you can tell that the site’s goal is seek out high-quality matches for you.

Match.com has the most powerful search tools in the industry. Instead of limiting you to some magic matching system that is only accessible to employees behind the scenes, you are allowed to search by location as well as several other factors that show how compatible you are with your potential mates.

The Match.com staff approves photos. Because of this, users on the site have high quality photos that are representative of who they actually are.

Dating Service Reviews #2, AreYouInterested.com

Are You Interested is a hybrid between “Hot or not?” and Valentine’s Day in elementary school. It poses as a free site, but actually charges rates that approach that of the high quality pay sites in order to actually hook up with a potential mate.

The service runs as an app on Facebook. The site feels like spam, with endless popup advertising “free gifts” for you to give away en masse to all the people you have clicked “Yes” to after seeing their picture for 2 seconds during the “Hot or Not” inspired part of the site.

The code base if chock full of bugs, and this is evident from the moment you sign up, even if you never actually pay for the service. Many of the buttons are not clickable on mobile phones. The site touts its ability to automatically read your interests, but do not be surprised it if makes a match between you and someone else based on the fact that you both like heavy metal polka, or some equally absurd assertion that has no basis in reality or anything you ever wrote in your Facebook profile.

You might think that this bug is something that the site maintainers would want to fix right away. However, the site is oriented around making as many bogus matches as possible. The goal is simply to get new users to sign up, and then tempt them with a large number of matches, many of whom are attractive. The site alerts you when someone else thinks you are attractive, and of course, this makes you want to contact this person and get a date set up. To do so, you will need to fork over considerable cash.

Most of these so-called matches are actually young girls (16-25 years old) who are not even single. They join the site without any respect for the notion that some of the people on the site are actually single and lonely. Their only goal is to boost their ego by seeing how many men click “Yes” on their photos.

Dating Service Reviews, #3: eHarmony.com

eHarmony prides itself on coming up with a complicated algorithm to make amazing matches between potential soul mates. As the most expensive of the sites, it would seem that this might actually be true. However, many ex-eHarmony users complain that the site does not actually work well in the real world. Matches seem to be random. In addition, a common complaint is that profiles are left up even after users end their contract with eHarmony. This is great for marketing, but results in real users feeling ignored when messaging potential mates that are not able to respond because they do not use the site any longer. The bottom line? Save your money. Successful dating requires actually going on dates. If you cannot get a date from the site, it is basically useless.
