True

true.com online dating website

It’s time to review True.com. True came on to the online dating scene a few years ago. You used to see a lot of advertisements for their site on places like Myspace, but they have slowed down with their banners it seems. Now they rank very high on google for “online dating” and pay to be a featured search result most times. Lets take a closer look at the site, and what they have to offer their members or surfers who are considering making a dating profile.

As usual, when checking out a dating site I like to go throught the process of creating a free profile. If you are more interested in seeing what features are offered and traffic rankings, jump down a few paragraphs. When you click “Join Now” they want you to search first, and see all the results that come up for your specific location. Once you get the results page, a pop-up will ask you to create your profile. The first page is not bad at all. Very standard fields to fill out. To keep you motivated to fill out all 5 pages, in the top right corner, they’ll tell you how many matches they have found so far based on your profile. Mine said they found over 30,000 so far. Must be a large site.

By the second page, I had lost 4,000 matches. The next page goes over your physical appearence and what your ideal matches physical appearence. Again, pretty basic questions that you would expect to answer on every dating site you encounter. After filling out the second page, I had lost 6,000 more matches and I wasn’t being too particular. The next page goes into your nationality and religion and what your matches should be. Again, I wan’t too particular, but did somehow lose 16,000 matches which brings me down to 4,000. Some people must be pretty particular about nationality and religion.

The next page is about your education, career, income, and social habits. At first, 5 pages for an online dating ad seemed to be on the high side, but each page pretty much only has 2 questions on it about you and then corresponding questions for the person you are looking for. After that last page, I was down to 865 matches. Now we are to the last of the 5 pages. The only questions on this page are if you have ever been married, do you have kids, and do you want kids.

Now the profile we just setup is free. After creating it, you are prompted to enter your credit card information to be able to start your full free 7 day trial. This means that without entering your credit care, you are unable to email and chat with other members. You can still read mail that you may get, but you cannot reply. The only things you can do without entering your credit card are view other profiles, and send winks. Now since the first 7 days are free, you really dont have anything to lose if you do try it out. But you have to remeber to cancel if you are unsatisfied and do not want to be charged monthly for using True.com. Read more »

IwantU

iwantu.com adult dating website

Iwantu.com has another great feature that I haven’t heard much about. That feature is their online magazine. IwantU allows any internet sufer access to their articles without having to signup for their dating site. If you want to leave comments or chat about the articles you’ve read, you’ll need to join.

I recently checked out some of the articles and thought they were pretty good. There are a lot of helpful tips for adult dating internet users. Here are some of the article titles.Planning a night long sex session

  • Planning a Night Long Sex Session
  • Is it Love of Lust?
  • The 10 Best Bedroom Tricks Know to Man

As a non-member you only get access to the 3 front page articles. You can look at a section called “Aphrodite Advice” without joining. Here members of IwantU get to ask relationship, sex, or any kind of questions and get great feedback for free.

The only other feature you’ll get access to without joining is the daily horoscopes. I personally do not believe in them but they can be fun to read and talk about. IwantU’s Online Magazine has some pretty cool stuff on there even if you get limited access. Joining for free might be worth it if you like the magazine and would like to read more.

Fling

Fling Adult and Cam Dating is doing well as usual. Just thought it was time to check back up on this site and see how things are going. One thing is for sure, they are very good at getting your attention with provocative banners. I think they have some of the best banners and promotional material of all adult dating sites. But that’s always been true. What about site changes?

With the speed of internet and computers getting faster every day, webcams are beginning to be more feasible for online daters and internet users everywhere. And what a better way to “interview” someone online than by seeing them live of camera.

In the old days of online dating, you had to trust that the pictures someone was sending you or had on their profile was current. Most likely, they have a really good photo from who knows when that they like to pass on as themself. Not anymore. With Fling’s awesome webcam services, you can get an in-depth, up-close preview of what someone is all about. You can have a lot more fun this way also.

So for all of you doing the adult dating thing online, Fling should be at least one place you check out. And if you have a webcam you should go there directly after reading this. Oh yeah, one more thing. Fling offers free webcam shows all the time to free members. You won’t find features like that at very many sites.

Perfect Match

perfectmatch.com online dating

Interested in making personal dating profile on PerfectMatch?

I had heard a little about it so I made one. Here is a little info on the sing up process…….

Not a ton about your physical appearance besides the normal questions. That’s pretty much all there is to the first page. On the second page, you are asked to go over a lot of true/false questions about yourself. Followed by some basic personality charateristics that highlight your pros and cons. Perfect Match goes through your religious practices and beliefs a tab more in-depth than most online dating sites.

After you fill out what you are all about, you select traits and geographical characteristics that are appealing to you when looking for in your ideal match. Even after those pages there are more true/false to come. The next set is geared towards your life and livestyle. This goes into intimate encounters, family and friends, jealousy, punctuality, children, music, hobbies, social habits, financial habits, etc.

After you have filled out the first main 4 sections, the last and most significant is still ahead. This is what they call the “Duet Analysis.” This includes 8 pages of questions geared at finding out as much about you as possible so that Perfect Match can find the perfect person for you. The categories of questions in this section are:

  • Romantic Impulsivity
  • Personal Energy
  • Outlook
  • Predictibility
  • Flexibility
  • Decision Making Style
  • Emotionality
  • Self-nurturing

After all the questions are filled out, you get an online dating personality profile. Here is what mine was(some questions answered without reading). Read more »

Webs Cutest

webscutest.com cam dating website

This is a review of WebsCutest.com. This is an adult site for sure. On their initial signup screen, their terms and conditions are tied to “Free Porn-Adult Movies” which should tell you something right off the bat.

You really do have a 1 step post to make your ad. Your ad is created within about 1 minute. If you want to uploada picture, or add more content, you have to do that after your initial setup. This site feels like adultspace.com but is not the same. They have the same thing going on though. It’s very much like an attempt to create an adult myspace. There are tons of things to do on this dating site though. To list a few.

  • Gallery
  • Browse Personals
  • Blogs/Forums
  • Rate Pics
  • Join Groups
  • Post Classifieds
  • Adult Webcams
  • Free Video Chat
  • Buy Toys/Videos

There are lots of areas on this dating site that ask you to buy porn movies. At times, this site definitely feels as if its main goal is to promote several porn sites and a few adult dating site. The adult dating sites they tend to promote are Fling, Amateur Match, and Adult Friend Finder. You can find a lot of links to those sites here.

The best way to put it I guess would be to say that its an adult community with an adult dating option. This site has a lot more going on than just adult dating and it looks to be a little bit low in their product line.

As always I like to look at their traffic rankings on Alexa. Here is a short traffic breakdown of WebsCutest.

  • Global: 61,899
  • US: 12,475

Not the best out there, but not terrible as well.

American Singles

americansingles.com online dating website

AmericanSingles.com has been a little quiet lately so I wanted to check it out and see what they have to offer the online dating community. As their title would suggest, they are pretty much just an American dating website. They have personal ads from other countries, but not of any real signifigance. AmericanSingles has done some TV advertisements but I haven’t seen any too recently. They are not advertised as a 100% free dating site. They do however allow you to make a free profile. So I made one.

From their homepage, you just select “make a free profile” and follow the easy steps. You choose your own username and password which I like much better than being given one from the dating site. The first page in the signup process goes a little bit deeper in their questioning than other sites such as JustSayHi , or HookUp . They ask you your first and last name, which I’m sure doesn’t have to be correct. You enter your personal description at this point. Usually you don’t fill that in until you get a little further, but it really doesn’t matter.

After the first page of your personal ad, you are asked to complete your profile further, all though you do not have to. American Singles displayed over 10,000 other members online at this point, which is at about 5 pm on a Saturday. That’s a pretty large number. There are about 4 pages of information to fully complete your profile. The pages are,

  • Personal Info
  • Basic
  • More About You
  • Interests
  • Photos

One cool feature of this site is that they find matches for you and make it very easy to accept or reject their suggestions. When browsing other members personal ads, you can select, Yes, No, or Maybe. Once you have decided that you would like to contact a member you have several choices as well. One option that is unigque to AmericanSingles is sending an “e-card.” You can send cheesy pickup lines, birthday cards, friendship or flirting cards. I personally like that feature. You can also add them to your “hotlist.” That’s as far as it goes for a free member. You CANNOT send messages to other users without becoming a premium member. Here is a little bit of info on their 3 premium membership options. Read more »

Horny Matches

HornyMatches.com comes up right away when you search sex personals or adult dating. This is a very large adult dating website. Let me emphasize that it’s strictly for adults. After seeing how well they ranked on search engines I decided to make a profile to see how the site is. As a male, you are able to to make a free profile with limited access to all features. The majority of the users here are from the United States. After you complete your profile you need to verify your email address and get your login information. After that your ad should be activated and ready for your final touches.

Once my ad was complete and I was in the dating area, I noticed that there were over 150,000 members online! That’s a ton of people. If that is true, this site is much larger than I anticipated. You can take personality surveys, post pictures, write about your ideal person, get an astrological sign review, and more. There is a compatability score you can compare to others to see how you match up. It seems like HornyMatches is doing a bit more than adult dating. They offer match making features similar to some of the larger, cleaner, dating sites. Here are some of the specific features as a free member.

  • send a wink
  • post pictures
  • refer a friend
  • add members to hot list
  • invite people to your network
  • block emails
  • cupid match system

The main feature that is completely necessary on a dating website is sending emails. As a free member you are not allowed. You’ll have signup for one of their paying membership plans to get the most out of the site. Their paying dating membership options are as follows. Read more »

Play Naughty

PlayNaughty.com has seen some great results in the UK and expanded their adult dating site to the US. I created a US dating profile on PlayNaughty to check it out. There aren’t as many members in the US but the site definitley has potential. Here is part of their welcome email……

“After a highly successful UK launch I thought it would be fun to open the site up to the USA and let you see what makes the site so hot in the UK.

For now, you will find that it’s 100% free to chat and mail other US members. If you want to chat to people around the world, you may need to pay but membership starts at just $6 for a day pass and you can join for life for just $75. These are introductory rates for the US only. ”

Play Naughty’s traffic statistics (number of visitors) are not too great overall. When you break it down by country the site looks much more attractive depending upon where you live. Here is the breakdown:

  • Global: 94,244
  • United Kingdom: 4,029
  • United States: 125,726

Hopefully their new US push will grow their presence here and they can start to compete.

Naughty Connect

NaughtyConnect has recently shown up on the adult dating scene. I noticed that they are ranking extremely high when searching adult dating on Google so I wanted to take a closer look. This is an adult site so expect some graphic pictures and profiles. When I first went to NaughtyConnect, I noticed that the page felt very similar to AdultFriendFinder. Espcecially their slogan at the top that says, “Welcome to the Worlds Largest, Naughtiest. Adult Dating & Sex Personals.” It is a very similar slogan to AFF.

I made a free profile to snoop around a little more. After filling out the profile, the site seemed less and less like AFF. So I’m confident that this isn’t another front like Passion.com for AFF. Your personal profile can be as indepth or simple as you want. Pretty standard fields to fill out. Nothing out of the ordinary. You CANNOT get very far here as a free member. You must pay in order to contact others on this site. You are able to send winks without paying but you are limited to 10 per day so chose wisely who you would like to contact. This adult dating site is very limited to non-paying members. You are able to receive messages from paying members which is limited to 10 in your inbox at any time. If you want more, you’ll have to delete the ones you have to get more. Your free profile is valid for up to one year.

As a paying member you obviously get a lot more features. A lot of these features are free on other adult dating sites. Paying members get the following features that free members do not have access to.

  • Messaging Members
  • Instant Messaging
  • Upload up to 20 pictures
  • Private Albums
  • Manage buddy/hot list
  • Full Signup
  • Even Management

There is only one premium membership option and that is the Gold package. The Gold Package costs $29.95/month. You credit card is processed by netcash and will automatically rebill you on the same day of the month until you cancel your membership. Read more »

OkCupid

OkCupid is a relatively new dating site. It is not an adult site by any means. It also is not your traditional singles community. It feels similar to a Myspace/Friendster with the main focus in online dating and match making. This dating site has many features that are fun to play around with. One being their tests and questions you answer for points. Once you get to 500 points you are able to create your own question and have other members answer it. The point of these questions is to get an idea of who you are and what other members have similar beliefs and characteristics for matching purposes.

The questions serve as a matchmaking system. When answering questions, you select your answer and what you would want in your partner. After you have answered a certain amount of these questions, they start to develop a match profile and can fit you with other singles on the dating site. I answered a few questions and still didn’t get a very good “percentage” complete. For them to have a good understanding of your personality, you would probably have to answer over 100 questions. If you use the personals site often that really wouldn’t be too hard.

OkCupid is completely free and at no point that I noticed are you asked to signup or pay for anything while on their site. The overall profile is pretty in-depth and could take a little while to create. You are allowed to post pictures obviously. They want them to be of your face only which is a little different. After you upload the picture, they ask you to crop the picture so it’s pretty much just your face. They will delete innapproriate pictures so I would make sure and read what is acceptable for your personal ad.

Their traffic rankings are pretty solid. According to Alexa, their Global traffic raking is 3,519. Their US rank is 726 with 56% of their overall traffic coming from the United States! That’s a pretty good rank which means this dating site should have a lot of members searching for singles.
