In the 3rd step you have to describe yourself and what you want to find in your chosen match. The 4th step is easy as you have to give your and your match area of interest and information like your favorite books, movies, video games and music artists etc.

In the 5th and final step you have to submit your photo and you are done and ready to start using the Gk2gk.com website.

Login & Customizing Profiles

After you have completed your registration you are automatically logged into the site. You will see a membership subscription level and what is accessible to you through that level. Limited access is given to the free and silver members.

Gold membership holders have access to the entire features and sections of the site.

The menu icons are kept very nicely on the top and to the left side of the homepage.

On the top you will see ‘My Tools’ from where you can view your profile, images, videos, matches, favorites, messages and winks, blocks made and your ratings of members.

On the left side you can see the options from where you can search for your match, chat, see the forum, blogs, videos, polls and surveys and the top rated profiles.

Customizing your profile on this site is easy as you can update your profile, add images and videos and manage your entire account.

Photo Profile Section

As mentioned earlier, the site allows you to share your profile with facebook and twitter users but you will disappointed to learn that no photo importing facility from these sites is available.

You have the option to upload the photos from your computer and add up to five photos including your primary profile photo. I wasn’t able to find any rules or guidelines in the photos you can upload, I am sure it’s somewhere in the user agreement.

Browse & Search Feature

Users can browse and search any section of the site but only if you have gold membership. For silver and free members only limited access is available.

If you are a free member then you can receive and read unlimited number of messages and can even send and receive unlimited winks. Free users can send messages to gold members and read their blogs.

Apart from this, silver members get a few more features and they can send unlimited messages, read and post messages on the message board and chat with other members, and they will also have their photo featured on the front page.

Gold members obviously get some more as they can receive and reply to unlimited number of messages from free members or paid members and also create and manage their own blogs as well as respond to the blogs. The gold member will also have priority placement of their profile on search/match pages.

Searching for your match here is easy and all you do is just click on ‘search for matches’ and the site will display a list of your matches along with their photos including the location and approximate distance from you is also displayed. You can go through their profiles and read their blogs. The advanced search has been set aside exclusively for gold members.

Messaging

Messaging is not very well featured for the new members. The site claims that free members can send messages to gold members but I could not found any such option from the message section.

The site offers chatting only to silver and gold members.

Unlike other dating sites this site does not have the facility for sending gifts, kisses, hugs and ’slaps’ to other users.

Other Features

The site hosts a featured geek goddess where you can submit questions about dating and relationships and answers will be posted on the dating site.

Ranking Statistics

The site has a good member base but it is not reflected in the traffic statistics where only 615 total visits and only 2 referring sites are sending traffic to the website. The site does not yet enjoy any web ranking.
