We review only the best dating services available with proven track records and large networks of singles.
Our reviewers focus on the following criteria for each dating site:
- Match Compatibility
- Number of Singles
- Overall Features
- Free Trial
- Cost
We've designed a rating system around these points to be able to assign a fair overall rating score for each dating site making it easy for you to compare them at a quick glance.
Our reviewers award each criteria with a specific score. They then take the individual scores, apply the basic math, and come up with an overall score on 10 that you see next to each dating site. Here are more details on how each is rated:
Match Compatibillity
The most important factor for a dating site is to provide users with a way to find compatible matches. Most of them have systems in place which take into consideration your likes, dislikes, hobbies, habits, and what you are looking for in a match, providing you with compatible suggested matches.
High scores are awarded to dating services providing regular matches with the use of technology that goes in depth looking at numerous factors before presenting a match. Full details of how each site provides these matches can be found within their complete dating site reviews.
Number of Singles

Number of singles is more of a factor for those outside a major city as a larger network will increase the number of potential matches in your location. If you live in a major city, this rating is less of a factor as all of the dating services reviewed will have thousands of singles in your area.
Overall Features
High scores are awarded to dating sites that provide creative methods of communication with other singles, quality messaging / email systems, various ways to search for and find potential matches, along with how many ways the service provides you with matches while you sit back. Details for each site are provided within each dating site review.
Free Trial
Quality dating sites are usually maintained by subscriptions. Some however let you look through their database, create a profile, even try the full service free for a period of time. This rating represents the amount of free offers and promotions each dating site gives non members.
Cost
Considering the amount of singles, match compatibility, and overall features, we assign a rating from 1 to 5 stars to represent the value vs. cost of a subscription for each of these dating services.
