What Are The Top Online Dating Sites For Men?

Online dating can open up a whole new world of opportunities for you -- but what you need are some truthful dating service reviews to help you choose the right website. The first dating site I want to review is Match.com, which isn't for guys on a tight budget -- but I personally feel it's worth the cost. Also, the cost (around $40 a month) creates a barrier of entry. You may shudder at the idea of paying to get a date, especially when you already have to pay so much to keep a date. But look at it this way: all of the young, silly women who just want to play games with men are probably not going to pay up. The monthly fees that Match.com charges basically act as a filter, eliminating the romance riff raff . Generally, you will find that the men and women on Match.com are serious about finding someone to date or be in a relationship with. A lot of other internet dating sites (especially free ones) are only trying to sign up as many members as they can, and provide little help with actually meeting anyone. Match.com, on the other hand, is a "real" community of people that are genuinely interested in meeting cool people. From the moment you sign up with Match.com, you know that their goal is to help you find real, high-quality matches. Without question, this site boasts the most powerful search features in the online dating industry. You can search for girls not only based on location, but on many other factors that will show how compatible you are with them. The Match.com staff approves photos. Because of this, users on the site have high quality photos that are representative of who they actually are. The next site I'm going to review on my list of dating services is AreYouInterested.com, which borrows elements of the popular "Hot Or Not?" website. It seems at first like a free site, but actually charges rates that approach that of the high quality pay sites in order to actually hook up with a potential mate. You need to use this service with your Facebook account, which runs it as an application. The site has a "spammy" feel -- ads are constantly popping up when you click "Yes" on someone's picture, which is annoying and obtrusive. The code base if chock full of bugs, and this is evident from the moment you sign up, even if you never actually pay for the service. And you'll have a very hard time trying to use this website with a mobile phone, as many of the buttons will not be clickable. The site touts its ability to automatically read your interests, but do not be surprised it if makes a match between you and someone else based on the fact that you both like heavy metal polka, or some equally absurd assertion that has no basis in reality or anything you ever wrote in your Facebook profile. I'm surprised that the developers of the site haven't bothered to fix these bugs. However, the site is oriented around making as many bogus matches as possible. The goal is simply to get new users to sign up, and then tempt them with a large number of matches, many of whom are attractive. The site will also notify you when someone else thinks you are attractive, which will of course make you want to contact them. To do so, you will need to fork over considerable cash. Most of these so-called matches are actually young girls (16-25 years old) who are not even single. They join the site without any respect for the notion that some of the people on the site are actually single and lonely. The final site on my list of dating service reviews is eHarmony, which prides itself on coming up with a complicated algorithm to make amazing matches between potential soul mates. However, many ex-eHarmony users complain that the site does not actually work well in the real world. Matches seem to be random. In addition, a common complaint is that profiles are left up even after users end their contract with eHarmony. This is great for marketing, but results in real users feeling ignored when messaging potential mates that are not able to respond because they do not use the site any longer. I like some of eHarmony's features, but not enough to recommend this site. Spend your money on another dating service. Your goal with these sites is to get dates. If you cannot get a date from the site, it's pretty much useless.
