Fancy a date at Match.com ? The site wasn't originally met with a great deal of enthusiasm
here at TheOnlineDatingShop.com . Its greatest claim to fame seemed to be buying
up smaller sites and putting them under one enormous, and seemingly dull
umbrella. I for one have a natural antipathy towards that
sort of trend, so I
was in no particular hurry to go discover the delights of Match.com. That had to
change when we started TheOnlineDatingShop.com -
we realised that all dating
bases had to be covered, so someone had to dive in...and how glad I am we did!
At first glance, although pretty, the Match.com site appears to be nothing
special, but it's really the best all-round site we've seen, offering a variety
of different ways to meet people. This is a site that seems serious about you
finding someone.
From the site;
"Match.com offers adults worldwide a fun, private and secure
environment
for meeting other singles. Singles are most likely to MEET, MATCH
and
CONNECT from browsing Match.com's database of more than 2 million active
profiles. Match.com registers more than 300,000 new members each month, and
touts more than 1,100 marriages have resulted from Match.com pairings!"
Special Features?
2-way
Match to make sure that the people you're interested are likely
to be interested in you.
Geo-targetting in landing page and search, so
that you can choose the precise location of people to correspond with.
Anonymous
e-mail which can be sent directly to your e-mail browser, but stops
other users being able to locate your private mail address.
Dating
ideas - ideas to make the occasion perfect.
Local
Events - news of occasional Match.com social events taking place close to you.
Highs?
-
Other
sites may do individual stuff better, but nobody does it like
Match.com, so great is their range! And that's important, because if
you're serious about meeting someone
see "Online
Dating-What is
it?",
it's probably better adopt more than one method of doing it,
since different activities attract different groups of people.
Essentially, the way Match.com works, you increase your chances of meeting
someone who feels right.
-
As we said
above, Match.com seem very serious about their
members actually finding partners, with membership essentially
being limited to those who are genuinely seeking someone for a
1:1 relationship. There are strict rules about site content - you'd
aren't allowed to add any "adult" content to stuff you post - no
heavy inneundo, no dodgy photos, no seeking multiple or additional
partners. to. Although these rules may make Match.com appear
a little stiff to some, they effectively act to drive those who want
to fool around on the internet to other, more salacious sites.
Lows?
-
This is a
very good site to use if you're seriously looking to meet someone.
However, if you're looking for lots of "suggestive" fun, Match.com
probably isn't what you're looking for; your better trying
IwantU
or
iFriends).
No instant chat.
