Review - Match.com

Match.com is the largest of the mainstream general interest dating sites, with approximately 9 million members. Its broad appeal has much to do with the number of user-friendly special features. If you are new to on-line dating you will find the sign up procedures and the basic profile submission to be both quick and easy, taking only about a minute to complete. Since this is a mainstream dating site, profiles are kept free of suggestive or profane language. Match.com offers free limited access usage, which will give potential members a variety of, but not all, functions for an unlimited period of time. As an example, you may search the database but you cannot make the initial contact with other members. You must wait for them to read your free ad, and hope that they contact you first. After seeing all the interesting member photos, and profiles that you would like to contact, you will quickly discover that full membership is the way to go.

When you first enter Match.com, you will find the FAQ (frequently asked questions) very helpful. Be sure to take time to read some of the informative and interesting advice, information, and articles that you'll find in the online singles magazine, “MatchScene”. Also take a few minutes to fill out the “Personal Attraction Test”. You will be surprised by the feedback and contacts you will receive based on this little form.

With their large membership database, it makes finding romance close to home very easy. Who wants to find a great match on the other side of the world? With Match.com’s introduction of “Two-Way Matching” and their “Venus” programs, your search can be easily narrowed down to the most compatible matches. The “Keyword” search feature will allow you to locate that perfect prospect that enjoys both traveling, skiing, golf, and more "indoor" type sports. And please, don't be reluctant to write all about yourself. You will quickly discover that you are what you write in your profile. If you're not honest and complete, how will your perfect match find you?

Still reluctant to expose yourself to the whole world? Remember, with Match.com's excellent reputation to protect, Match.com has made every effort necessary to assure your privacy. Their various forms of communication such as IM/Chat (instant messenger), email, telephone contact, video, audio, etc. all have “anonymizer” functions built-in in order to provide you with a safe and
secure environment.

We highly recommend Match.com especially if you are new to the online dating world. But it's not just for newbies. Match.com has done everything right. Most members will find everything they could want in an online dating service, and will not need to join other sites to "see what else is out there".

The membership fees are in line with other similar services, and the overall member satisfaction lever is rated as Excellent. Match.com will not disappoint. To visit the site for more information, please click HERE
