What Online Dating Site is Right for Me?

Picking a dating site that you feel comfortable with is not always easy. I’m going to review a few in this article and hopefully help you make an informed decision. I’m pretty sure if you are currently up to date and have a TV and internet connection, you know which ones are the most advertised. Most of the time I see either eHarmony.com or Match.com aiming for my attention.

I even see specialty sites such as Farmersonly.com only and EliteSingles.com advertised ...

What’s better a paid or unpaid dating site?

What’s better a paid or unpaid dating site?
I’ve recently moved from unpaid to a pay dating site. I can’t sit here and tell you that there are massive differences in how the services work. What I can say is that the people on the paid sites seem to be more invested. That’s not to say everyone that I encountered on an unpaid dating site was not invested but it felt harder.

Posted by:

I had heard that Match.com was going to try to introduce some more “traditional” dating opportunities through singles’ events. These events, call Stir Events, are basically parties/get-togethers organized by Match.com where they bring a bunch of singles together and see what happens.

Match.com Review

Posted by:

For some reason, I’ve never written a review of Match.com here…even after all the years that I’ve been running this website. I guess this is odd because I actually met the woman I married using Match.com!

At any rate, I felt like it was time to give my review of Match.com. I’ll admit, I have a bias for the service since I had success with it, but I would argue I have a favorable bias for a good ...

Earlier this week (July 21st to be exact) marked the last day that any user of Yahoo! Personals could switch to Match.com, the service that will be taking over all the accounts that previously existed within the Yahoo! service.

Yahoo! Personals is the first service I ever paid for when I started dating online. I never had success with this service and as I discuss in my online dating guide, I think it may have ...

According to a new Match.com commercial I’ve been seeing lately, 1 in 5 relationships are now started through online dating services. Still, even with that fact, there are a large number of singles who believe that online dating does not work, or at least not for them. With that in mind, I wanted to post a ...
