Free Dating Service

With the success of plentyoffish.com (Marcus’s advertisements telling of his millions are everywhere!) there has been a proliferation of free dating sites. Before you choose an actual website, though, you need to think about which type of free dating site will suit you best. Today we look at the differences between the 4 main types of free dating sites.

All free, all the time – hetero-oriented

These represent around half of the free dating sites on the net. However, you’ll often find that free dating sites are a bit frustrating to use. People will often try them out by setting up a profile, then neglect to check their messages and winks. It is best to join several free dating sites, and check them often for newly added profiles – in the early days people are online more often. Cast your net wide on free dating sites.

Free dating on paid sites

Most paid sites actually let you set up a profile for free, but to contact anybody, you will need to pay. Here’s another situation where you’ll simply need to set up a killer profile, and wait for people to come looking for you.

‘Adult’ dating

If you aren’t looking for a relationship, add your profile to one of the adult-specific dating sites on the net. Many of these are free dating sites… and at least there is no confusion about what you want.

Sexuality-specific dating sites

You can spend a long time trawling through ordinary free dating sites for a suitable person if you are a gay man or woman. Sexuality specific free dating sites are a much better option.
