There is an e-matchmaker where you can see members who are highly compatible with you.

Searching section was a pleasure to use with basic search as the simplest search in which you can search by city, mother tongue, state, religion and age.

Apart from this you can make a smart search which is based on complexion, diet, smoking, drinking, special case, HIV positive, manglik (influence by some bad planet effect) etc. and you can also view the online personals by clicking on ‘Who is online’.

There is an astrology search in which you have to give your date of birth, time, country and city of birth and on the basis of this information, the site will create your horoscope and will search for partners that criteria. It’s hard to quantify the effectiveness of this search unless compared rigorously with the other search options.

Messaging

Messaging is not that great feature of this site and you can send messages and view the phone number of the person.

You can also make a chat with them but for using all these features you need to be a premium member of this site.

The site does not offer any free messaging service and features such as winks, gifts and the like are not available on this site which are common in many other dating sites.

Other Features

There is a photo password by which you can make your photo personals only viewable to premium members.

You can also get instant SMS notification and latest matches directly to your mobile.

The astrology search is somewhat interesting for the people who believe to make relations according to the stars.
