eHarmony is running an unusually long free trial weekend this week, starting tonight, Wednesday, January 13th and running all the way through the end of the day on Tuesday, January 19th. This event is for everyone in the US and Canada. As far as free trials go, this is longer than most and is a great opportunity to try the service and get a feel for how it works over several days.
Normally when signing up for a free account, eHarmony will send you some matches and you can review them but not send them any messages. During the free trial you can. This may give you a better feel of how the service could work for you than you can with the normal free service.
As Stephanie talked about in our last piece, New Year’s to Valentine’s Day is the peak dating season, when many people with new ambitions and plans decide to try things they’ve been previously putting off or considering. This adds a lot of new people to the online dating field, people eager to see who else is out there and see what these services are all about. If this is you, or if you’re already using eHarmony, Match.com, or others, it means now is the time to get out there and meet some new people. There will be all manners of backgrounds and personalities trying the service for the first time, and this helps your odds of finding someone that will be a good match for you.
If you’re thinking about diving in, be sure to check out our Free Online Dating Guide for tons of advice and tips on creating your profile, sending messages, and getting the most out of the service. Good luck and have fun!
