Best Online Dating Site - How to Find Yours
By Stephanie Constantina

If you want to join a dating service then naturally you want to join the best online dating site you can find. So how do you go about deciding which is best?

To begin with, you may be looking for an online dating site that serves your particular social or other group, in which case what follows in this article will apply once you have sorted out a list of potential sites to join within your specified area of interest.

Most people however, will want to join a general dating site that offers a larger number of potential dates, and will be looking for the best site on that basis.

So, let's look at some of the criteria you can apply to narrow down your choices in your search for the title of best online dating site.

The first one to mention, and of great importance, is that you want to use a site that will not sell your personal data or email address. Look in the FAQs, 'about' pages or privacy policies of sites you are considering to see if they specifically state that they will not sell your data. You could also search using your favorite search engine to see if you can find cases where they have not kept to their policy.

In keeping with this approach, you want a site that is as honest as possible in all aspects of its business. Did you know that some dating sites have been accused of creating fake profiles in order to get their free members to subscribe? So, how can you test this one? Again, look for explicit policy statements that rule this out, but also spend some time browsing the profiles to look for ones that could be faked. Duplicate pictures or unrealistic sounding text could possibly indicate this, however, sometimes real members make more than one post using the same picture but different details.

Another thing to watch out for in your search for the best dating site is that many sites will automatically bill your credit card each month. While you will have legally 'agreed' to this when signing up (look in the small print), it is a practice that worries some. So take note if this is something that concerns you, that there is at least one dating service that we at SingleDating.com have identified (and partnered with) that strictly does not follow this practice and so gives you much greater control over your membership.

Lastly you want a dating service that will allow you to reply to messages from people who are interested in you, even while you are still a free member. Not all dating sites will allow that one.

So, while most dating sites allow you to join for free, have large international memberships and so on, not many will satisfy all of the points of this article. However, at SingleDating.com we have found a good one that does. Follow the link below to a page at our site to find out which one.
