One great feature that is particularly attractive is that Fling.com offers you 3 months completely free, provided you don’t find yourself a date in the first 3 months of joining! This is a nice touch, but hopefully you will be fortunate enough and get ‘lucky’ during that time! So what are your odds of getting an actual live date on Fling.com? The members database consists of over 2,500,000 active members, with some guaranteed to be in your area. So if you currently live in a major city, especially in the US, there shouldn’t be any problems with you hooking up with a ‘hot’ date. However, if you happen to live in the middle of nowhere.USA, then you may find a date for the night a bit more of a challenge. Although the database of members for Fling.com may pale in comparison a bit with our top-rated dating site of this type, AdultFriendFinder or Passion.com, which has a few more million members to choose from. However, Fling.com does offer the streaming videos thrown in for free! So it really depends on what really rocks your boat for that particular evening! One major gripe regarding Fling.com is that it currently doesn’t allow you as a ‘Free’ member to browse for potential dates living in your immediate area before you sign up, but then it’s free to join, so no worries there. Other adult dating sites by the way, don’t allow this either. So go ahead and click on the banner below to check out the fabulous Fling.com, and start performing a free search to see who’s hot and attractive online, in your immediate local area! Go On A Fling With Fling.com * An excellent search feature that will match you up by: sex, location, age, availability of photos, recently new members, and what that persons interests are The great thing about Fling.com is that it has a large number of long-standing members, that continue to be members. You can find them in large cities as well as small towns all around North America. Like any other site of this type, there are however more male members than women, which is common. Fling has a few unique features that other casual dating sites of this type don’t bother with. They include: a blackbook feature (a friends list), online real-time video chat, search in “safety” mode (which means not allowing viewing of explicit photos or video). The site also features you to show your profile in ‘discrete mode’, which means only the people in your ‘black-book’ can only view your pictures, videos and profile. Every members page also shows random live cam feeds posted by different users. Fling.com Memberships Available A Gold membership offers the same features as the ‘Silver’ membership, along with additional features and benefits such as: getting top-listed search results, allowing you to become a featured member, and allowing free members to email you at no extra cost. The ‘Featured members’ are shown up front and clearly visible on most pages, as well as on every search page. Now that’s a lot of exposure. Join For Free Now… |

Passion.com also shares the same great features as AdultFriendFinder, but by our accounts, the Passion.com layout is more preferred than the layout of AdultFriendFinder.com. But this is just personal preference as both sites are excellent and friendly to navigate. Go ahead and browse on both of the sites to see which one you like. Passion.com, just like AdultFriendFinder, has an enormous as well as a vast membership database of over 24+million active members. So that’s far more than any other online dating site of this kind, or any other dating site for that matter that we have reviewed.

Profiles that you post and are posted are reinforced by the “Confirm ID” feature, which verifies that users say who they say they are. This is a great and popular feature on the majority of the safety conscious adult dating sites, which goes a long way in allowing users to establish trust in the Passion.com site. The ‘Confirm ID’ feature is especially useful if you are a male using the Passion.com site and can improve your chances XXX fold. As Passion.com is reinforced by AdultFriendFinder, that also means the members can also have the confidence that comes with over 10 years of presence in the adult online dating industry as AdultFriendFinder has. Passion.com takes steps to make sure that all the members are genuine, and do their best that there are no “false” profiles created to specifically entice male users to sign up and pay the full membership subscription fee).

If you are interested in giving the adult online dating game a try, you could do a lot worse than joining Passion.com.

Highlights Of Passion.com : * Passion.com is powered by the mighty database of AdultFriendFinder |
The search function on Christian Mingle is one of the best features of the site, even at the ‘Free Standard Membership’ level. As all members are able to use the; “Advanced Search” option. This is of great help provided that you know exactly what you are looking for in an ideal date or partner. If you happen to be searching by location, you can get pretty specific, down exactly to your local neighborhood or borough, up to just a few blocks away. This is a lot better than Christian Mingles immediate competitors, which just offers searches based on specific cities. ChristianMingle.com also allows you to search for someone based on specific keywords as mentioned in their member profiles. This is an extremely useful tool to find compatible partners with specific similar hobbies you many share in common. The Christian community feel is excellent, as there are extensive friendly message boards, with sections divided into and devoted to everything from specific Bible studies, to daily devotional messages, to favorite foods, health issues, fitness, and hobbies. These boards are popular and are regularly used by all members, creating a safe and friendly social environment. The individual profiles on Christian Mingle are very well organized and extremely easy to input and view. The only setback may be that you are unable to contact other members unless you are a paid member. On the profiles themselves, there are a wide range of personal information that you are able to display. Info such as: basic personal profile information, your favorite music or musicians, and other information such as the importance of what being a good Christian means to you. These descriptive profiles are a great way to getting a fairly good idea of someone’s personality, before you contact them. There is also a feature called “Question Of The Week”, this is an excellent idea, great icebreaker and unique to Christian Mingle! ChristianMingle.com’s series of “COMPASS” quizzes is another excellent feature, which is only available and thus unique to Christian Mingle. When you take the quiz, you will find out how ready you are for an actual relationship (but don’t worry, no one else will see your results!). You will also be able to check how your compatibility profile, matches up with another member, based on their COMPASS results. What it does is it takes the final results from both of your quizzes and then sees how well of a match both you may be! Christian Mingle also has an unique “Organized Events” service, which is something you would not necessarily find on other online dating sites. This is a fantastic idea for meeting other members in person, in a controlled social setting. Most of these organized events and get togethers however, are primarily based in the United States. This is probably because the majority of the Christian Mingles members as of right now, seems to be living in the USA. So when you are using the message boards, or the chat function, and encounter someone of interest, you would assume that they are in the same country as you are. We recommend that when joining any online dating site, that you do extensive searches in your direct local area, before buying any type of paid membership, especially if you are from outside of the United States. This is to make sure there are single members in your area. The membership cost to join Christian Mingle is affordable and on par to its competitors of other Christian dating sites. So, if you are looking for a Free and simple, user friendly, easy-to-use and join Christian dating site, and you live in North America, ChristianMingle.com is the place for you! Sign up today with Christian Mingle and find your soul mate… Highlights Of ChristianMingle.com: * Ability to upload and view photos |
One of the things that you’ll first notice when you join AmericanSingles.com is its easy registration interface and process. To sign up as a member, either it be a free or paid membership, initially, all what’s required is for you to choose: a user name and a password, your e-mail address along with your date-of-birth. There is also 7 multiple choice questions about yourself that you are required to answer, as well as you writing a short one to two line introduction of yourself… and that’s it! After registration, you’ll be able to access the entire site and you can immediately begin searching for other members in your local area, ASAP! Among the various other online dating sites out there, AmericanSingles.com has to be one of the most user friendly and easiest registration process available. Once in, you will also notice how friendly it is to navigate inside the entire AmericanSingles.com site. There are no annoying banner ads or other types of advertisements. The layout is extremely clean and tidy, and the site is very newbie friendly. American Singles.com comes with a lot of useful and handy features to make life easier for you. One feature is the “Click” feature, which simply asks you if you would “click” with another members profile based just on his or her photos. If you choose ‘Yes’, and the other member is also interested in ‘clicking’ with you, then that could very well be the start of one beautiful friendship. There is also the “Flirt” feature, where you are able to send a pre-written one liner to a potential love match. You can say something like, “I was looking for love, and stumbled up on your photo. Ready to meet?” or something less direct! There are around 50 pre-written one liners for you to choose from, divided into different categories. Although, AmericanSingles.com offers all the premium features to be an excellent dating site, it doesn’t quite rank on top of our list based on the following reasons… While you are a free member, you can not respond to any e-mails that a registered premium member sends you. (But, most other sites don’t either). Your only available response is that you can ‘Flirt’ back with your admirer and send them one of those fabulous pre-written one-liners. Again, this is quite commons amongst other dating sites at the ‘Free Members’ level. Also, you won’t be able to tell, just by looking at the other member profiles, which ones are the free members or which ones are premium members. There is also no keyword search function available. Other online dating sites will allow you to search for member profiles based on any keywords that you choose. This is an excellent way of finding other members who may have the same interests as you do. But again, most other dating sites don’t have this feature either. One other thing that may be considered a nuisance is that if you click on another member’s profile, it will pop up in a new window. This new window popup showing the profile cannot be re-sized, so based on your monitor settings, you may not be able to fit the profile in the window of your screen, forcing you to scroll left to right or up and down to read the page. One final thing is that AmericanSingles.com does not presently offer an online web-ezine offering articles, tips or other member stories and experiences, that may be available on other dating sites. Whether this is a disadvantage or not will be totally dependent on your personal preferences, as there are some who love the social interaction, while others don’t really care. But all in all, AmericanSingles.com as mentioned has a great, easy to navigate layout. It has an massive and growing database of over 7.5 million members, and it’s price is very competitive. If you decide to sign-up for the 5-month (Premium) membership plan, you’ll not only get your membership for just $16.99 per month, you’ll also get the option to renew the membership at the same low rate while also qualifying for the AmericanSingles.com’s Five Month Promise… which is: American Singles will give you Five (5) additional months free if you don’t find someone during the initial first five months! Click the link below and use the fast registration process to sign-up for your Free membership to AmericanSingles.com and start dating today… Highlights of AmericanSingles.com: * Over 7.5 million registered members and growing |

The iFriends.com site was launched on February 14th, 1998, which of course is Valentine’s Day, basically as a video-chat, online dating and matchmaking service. This site also offers an online ‘real-time’ chat community feature for the web-cam enthusiasts crowd. iFriends.com has rapidly evolved into a huge substantial community who has diverse interests and niche content categories. The site currently has over twelve (12) million registered members and more than 200,000 registered video “chat-hosts”. The membership database is diverse as they come from over 100 different countries worldwide. Once you join for free and log on to the site, you can then use the search function if you are interested in finding a date who lives near by. As there is a lot of information on the page, look on the upper right hand corner and you will see the search area. Once you click on it, you can then begin to browse for live or archived cams of other guys or gals, or couples who are currently looking for someone who they can chat live with, or you can just watch them on their live webcam. They also have an ‘Adult’ area that you can join for a small fee, for what some may consider a bit of ‘risque’ browsing, which gives you two options of membership… the Elite Group or the Club VIP. When you join the Elite membership, you will be able to watch several cams at once. iFriends.com offers you detailed instructions on how you can be a chat-host, which basically works the same way if you are a member on any other online dating site, the only difference is that they don’t involve cameras. Here Is A Quote From The iFriends.com’s Site: iFriends.com offers a vast library of down-loadable, vivid streaming high quality HDTV movies, from the worlds largest, and most diverse collection of beautiful as well as entertaining web-cam stars on the planet. iFriends also offers you as a member the largest and the highest quality video library in the entire world, with more than 1 million hours of high quality, high end streaming video, which now include true 720p High Definition video that’s guaranteed to be three times more realistic and vivid than DVD-quality videos.

As with other dating sites, when you initially join MatchMaker, you will be required to complete a fairly extensive ‘personality profile’ questionnaire, which can take you up to an hour to complete, this depending on how much thought you put into the detailed questions. The questionnaire has a number of multiple choice questions along with 20 essay-type of questions as well. The essay questions are optional, but keep in mind that the more detail and thought that you put in your profile, the more interest and accuracy you’ll get from other members. So its recommended that you spend the additional time on the essay questions. This is your chance to make a great first impression after all! You are able to update your profile at any time upon joining. Once you decide to join MatchMaker.com, you’ll immediately be able to search for other members, view their profiles who live in your immediate area, as well as view the photos a member has posted or listen to their voice greeting as well. As a free member, you’ll be able to access every feature of the site, as well as replying to any emails you may receive. The email feature on a lot of other major dating sites is not available, as most require you to upgrade to paid membership status. This you will find is a great feature as if someone searches for and finds your profile, and you happen to have an eye-catching or a humorous profile, provided your admirer is a premium member, they can email you, which you can reply back for free! However, if that person is not a premium member, they will be required to upgrade to a premium member, just to make contact with you. So if you post your profile, which others find attractive, and particularly if you happen to be female, you could function as an active member of the MatchMaker.com community without upgrading to a premium membership! Another great feature offered by MatchMaker is the ability to perform detailed keyword searches on other members’ profiles. So say you are interested in dogs or horses, you can then do a keyword search on “dogs” or “horses” and see which member profiles contain these words. This can be an excellent way to get to know other members with similar hobbies or interests, and is not a feature available on most other dating sites. The majority of other sites just allows you to perform searches on other members based just on geographical location or age and gender. MatchMaker doesn’t allow you to do this, unless you sign up as a free member and register your email address. One way we have found how you can view other members who live in your area, however, is by looking at the MatchMakers ’sitemap’ on their homepage and click the “Site” link to a page that allows you to view other singles by state or province, (in the US and Canada). The “Map” link leads you to a page where you can view other singles by major cities! You can then filter their profiles by gender, but not by age. This will give you an idea of who’s online in your immediate area, all this even before you sign-up as a free member! MatchMaker has all the ‘bells and whistles’ that you’d expect from any other major dating site, as well as a few more features that you wouldn’t expect to find. It has an active diverse community of members, where you can communicate via email, (IM) instant messenger, or in one of the various chat rooms available. While MatchMakers 8 million plus members is impressive, and is one of the larger sites out there, it still pales into comparison with one of the largest, most established sites available, Match.com, who has a staggering 25 million plus members. A database of that size gives you a great chance of finding a date in your area, and you just need to find ‘one’ date right? So why not sign up as a member to both MatchMaker.com and Match.com, as both are free - and enhance your success? Click the link below to sign up with MatchMaker.com… Highlights of MatchMaker.com: * Has over 8+ million registered members |

So if you are a married male or female, and looking for a bit of extra curricular ‘hanky panky’, as well as the fun and excitement of doing the ‘horizontal dance’ on the side with someone you don’t know, then AshleyMadison.com may be the perfect site for you. For this reason, this site, although it may not have the largest membership database when compared to the other dating sites that we’ve reviewed, many of the users report a high success rate on hooking up, as the members are all looking for the same thing, which is a ‘quickie’. There is also great gender balance on this site as well, so it’s not male dominated as you would expect on this type of theme. Some of the member user reviews on their website are great, as discretion is obviously of key importance. Ashley Madison has carved of a deep yet unique niche in the online dating site arena, which is initially free to join to look around. The AshleyMadison.com site is also a bit unique in how it handles it’s premium payment system for members. The site has a “credits” based program, where there is no set expiration date on your membership. You are and remain a ‘Premium Member’, as long as you keep your ‘credits’ up to date. What happens is that you pay based on how much you use the site. For example: If you say “Instant Message’ (IM) others members for an hour a day, your credits of 1,000 points, which costs $249, won’t last very long (approximately around 20 days or so). eMailing other members however, is a lot more reasonable, at a cost of $5 per user for essentially unlimited mail. Another option is you can always exchange cellphone numbers (though of course given the nature of this site, this is not really that discreet!). Giving out racy “Ashley Gifts” can help in spicing up online conversations and also encourages another member to make your online potential acquaintance a reality, though these can get rather expensive, considering you lose credits for every action. Although there is no real support for the web-cam or audio chat, Ashley Madison does however uses less online erotic chat, but rather aims more at creating an opportunity to begin a genuine, physical affair. Other useful features include the ability to leave feedback on other members, so that other users viewing their profile can decide, based on the “reviews”, whether if they want to spend their ‘credits’ on striking up a conversation or not. There is also a “panic button” feature where members can simply click a button, so they will be instantly redirected to a innocent looking home improvement site! This is obviously a safety precaution feature, if anyone looks over your shoulder and for other prying eyes who may look at your screen. The site also offers a lot of advice that you can use regarding how to conduct and manage a “successful affair”, as well as how to remove all traces of AshleyMadison.com from your computer when your done! If you run across your significant other, who is also a member of the site, well then sorry, can’t help you there. Searching through the now over 3.5 million members on AshleyMadison.com, is made easy by an extensive search function, as there always seems to be a great number of local users online at any one time! The site works perfectly for its intended niche target audience, but for those singles who are looking for that long term relationship, perhaps should look elsewhere on some of the other dating sites. Its also a shame AshleyMadison doesn’t just throw in a few free credits as a bonus for new members, so they can try it out and test a few of the site’s features. Regardless, this unique site is perfect for those married folk who are seeking extra-marital affairs, and if that happens to be you, it’s well worth giving it a try. Click the link below to visit AshleyMadison.com, sign-up for free today… Highlights Of Ashley Madison: * Ashley Madison only caters to married men and women who are looking for an affair |
As mentioned, PerfectMatch is distinctive from almost every other online dating site, as it won’t allow you to search their members’ database. This is the case whether you are a free member or a paid member. Okay, well it’s not that unique as eHarmony.com and Chemistry.com both use a similar matchmaking system. PerfectMatch prefers to do the searching, as well as the matchmaking for you. When you first join PerfectMatch, you will be required to complete a rather lengthy personal profile questionnaire. This questionnaire is not your typical ‘quickie’… What is your favorite color? type of questionnaire that’s required from the other dating sites. This one happens to be long, well, very long! Depending on the amount of time and thought that you put into each question, this questionnaire can take you anywhere from 1 to 2 hours to complete, so grab a comfy chair, a cup of tea and make sure you answer the questions as accurately as possible. After all, your love life deserves it. Once you finish the questionnaire, you will then be able to read your personality profile online. Perfectmatch.com’s system will also immediately begin searching to find compatible love matches for you, using its ‘Compatibility Matching System.’ Initially, the system may return just a few matches or it may return 40+ or so, depending on your specific personality profile. Also, keep in mind that you may not even get any compatibility matches for a couple of days or even up to a few weeks. So to be safe, you shouldn’t be expecting multitudes of results right away. However, once you do get the matches, they should theoretically be as closely matched to your unique personality type as possible. Now once you do begin receiving your potential perfect matches, you can then start viewing the profiles of your love matches, and decide whether you want to initiate contact with them or not. If you do decide you want to contact them, you must then upgrade to be a paid-up member of PerfectMatch.com to proceed. The other person you are attempting to contact must also be a paid member as well. Contacting your potential mate can be done in one of two ways: you can use the ‘Guided Communication Process’ to initially break the ice, or jump straight to the ‘Fast Track’ system and just directly contact them right away. Perfectmatch recommends that you start with the ‘Guided Communication System,’ which is another set of Questions & Answer’s between you and your potential match, to determine your compatibility. Opting for the ‘Fast Track’ system allows you to just bypass the foreplay and contact them directly, ASAP. With all the Q and A’s, the “Guided Communication System”, PerfectMatch is obviously not for someone who is looking for a quickie date this Friday. Perfectmatch.com is designed for those ready to settle down and finding a compatible life partner, and not much else. Some may feel that all this scientific based approach to finding a partner, which involves hundreds of ‘who am I?, questions as well as the intense ‘3rd degree’ personality profiling is taking all the fun and mystique out of dating. For most, the best experience and enjoyment of that first date is discovering for yourself how the initial chemistry works out between yourselves. Because of this, most would prefer to do their own searching and matchmaking, rather than they relying on a computer algorithm to do it for them! On other dating sites, the fun is searching through 100’s of potential profiles who live in your immediate area, browsing through their photos, reading what they say about themselves or view them live on a video clip. You can do all this on most of the other dating sites, such as Match.com and numerous others. But PerfectMatch.com prefers to approach this a little differently, they replace first impressions with more of a in depth personality profile that determines your compatibility, which is based on 29 different criteria. PerfectMatch.com and its advanced matchmaking system make this site an excellent choice for anyone that’s serious enough about finding a long-term relationship, by completing the lengthy questionnaire process. As with eHarmony and Chemistry.com, PerfectMatch.com perhaps does not belong in the online dating category as it is more of a matchmaking site. Whatever your opinion is on PerfectMatch, this site is extremely popular for the love lorn crowd, and has had undeniable success at matching couples with each other. Who knows, you could be next, provided you are willing to be probed and prodded with the personality revealing questionnaire process, pay the membership fee of $59.95, and wait on pins and needles as a computer finds the perfect match for you. Click the link below to check out PerfectMatch for yourself, this site most definitely gives you quality instead of quantity regarding matches. Highlights of PerfectMatch.com: * Currently has over 15+ million registered members |
Friend Finder is just part of a much larger community of similar websites, (they all have the ‘Finder’ attached to them). The most famous and the most popular is the ‘Adult Friend Finder’ site, which is an adult dating site with an amazing 24 million active members! Some of the other sites that are part of the ‘Finder’ network include: Asian FriendFinder.com,German FriendFinder.com, French FriendFinder.com, Senior FriendFinder.com, Passion.com and many more related online dating sites targeted towards various specific niche markets. FriendFinder.com however is the original and the best they have to offer. FriendFinder gets our applaud for the great features the site offers, it has everything you’d expect and much more. A full list of their features are described below, so most will not be listed here. However, the best feature that they offer is allowing their free members to contact others by email - although this does require that you pay an additional monthly fee, but it’s definitely well worth it. Most other online dating sites allow you to email other site members only when you’ve upgraded to their premium membership package, but unless that member you’ve contacted is also a premium member, that person won’t be able to reply back to you. That potential love of your life will then be forced to either upgrade their membership in order to reply to you, or simply ignore your carefully worded love request email! FriendFinder allows you to pay just a small fee, which allows any free member to reply to all your emails. There are also a number of options available with your membership, such as allowing other free members to contact you, or high-lighting your personal profile so that it stands out of the crowd, and you can even include your profile in FriendFinder’s weekly online ezine for added exposure. FriendFinder also provides an personal accounts page which allows you to manage all of your subscriptions, upgrade your current membership, or add/remove these optional extras. You can also choose which options will be automatically renewed next month, and which won’t be renewed. This is just some examples of the well-thought out user interface once you decide to join FriendFinder.com. So because of all these fantastic ‘bells and whistles’ the site offers, FriendFinder.com is one of our top ranked dating sites. One noticeable setback however is that FriendFinder just has 3.5 million members worldwide. You’re probably saying so what? All you need is just one date, right? Well, while this still a very large number of members, it doesn’t really compare to the other highly ranked sites out there, such as perhaps the Number 1 ranked internet dating site by many, Match.com, who has a staggering 25 million members online and counting. It’s pretty obvious that for any site to be popular, it all depends on the number of members it has in it’s database, as the greater the number of members, the better the chance that you will find a date online. So just for this reason, FriendFinder.com, although great is not on our list as the Top dating site! But having said that, what’s really important is whether or not you find that someone special online, who lives in your area, and whom you find attractive. At the end of the day, that’s all that matters and Friendfinder may be the one. Everyone of the Top 10 online internet dating sites offer a free standard membership, so why not take advantage of that? Sign up with 6 or 8 or more of them for free and see who’s online in your area. Click the link below to visit FriendFinder.com, sign up and perform a free search for members who may just be your neighbor!
