Free Dating Sites – A Click Away
Tuesday, March 13th, 2012
What’s the fuss with free dating sites these days? Everyone seems to be talking about it but some people are very skeptical about the whole affair. This got me thinking…
Pretty much today in our modern capitalistic society and what is considered the land of plenty, everything seems to come with a price. Why would free dating sites want to offer a service for free especially in a money driven society such as ours?
In the good old days when we did not sit in front of TVs all day long and we spent much of our time with other people. We supported each other in times of need both financially and mentally and everyone felt a strong kinship in behaving that way. We all propped each other up and supported everyone in our endeavors. Whereas today everyone seems to become an independent unit all by itself and the need for other people diminishes and hence the dependency. There are few amongst us who lean away from this materialistic outlook in life and look at other people and the plight of people first before money. One should be thankful to all those hard working individuals and thinkers who go out of their way to provide you with something free just like free dating sites.

There is absolutely nothing in you signing up to any of these free dating sites and don’t expect something less or inferior to a paid dating site just because it’s free. These people are not driven by money alone but the ambition to provide a service that will appeal to many while at the same time seeking growth and taking care of essential business costs. The service maybe just as good as the paid dating sites because these crops of people may and usually do come from highly technological backgrounds empowering them with the ability to build something unique on the internet.
Those days when famous brands sprouted from humble backdoor garages are still abound and not quite forgotten. Brand names such as Apple, HP, and Microsoft are just to name a few and who have all had their humble beginnings with an idea and a strong vision. Before you sign up to one of the big paid dating sites remember also the free dating sites as they are just a click away.

Still Using Robots to Find Dates…Is it the Only Way?
Sunday, March 11th, 2012
Do you wait for free online dating sites to send you the best matches and then you go about contacting them for a date? There is nothing wrong in doing this, but this shows that you are not so keen in finding your dating partner and would rather have a robotic match that only matches you by age, location and a few other interests.
Top dating sites like eHarmony, Match.com and a few others charge online singles for their dating profile as they work on a complex matching system, however leading free online dating sites like PlentyOfFish (pof), Datehookup, Jumpdates and others give online singles the power to choose their dating partner according to their own individual needs.
This is not to discourage you from joining any paid dating sites, but robotic matches has its limitation and you should be aware of this. It will only perform for you what it was programmed to do based on a few rules of matching criteria found in the profiles. Just to give you an example, there may be a profile that you come across that doesn’t fit the normal criteria that you have stated in your profile, in which case the matching robot would have missed that profile altogether. This is why it is very important for you to do some of the searching yourself and decide what criteria work best for you.
Free online dating sites provides you with these kind of choices and their searching features help you to set the kind of match you are looking and give you the flexibility and scope to widen your search for pinpointing that ideal partner you are looking for.

Internet Penetration - Inversely proportional to Growth of Free Internet Dating Sites in USA
Saturday, March 10th, 2012
Today 11 March 2012 we celebrate the 136th anniversary when the first bi-directional phone call was made in what would be classed as the biggest invention of the 19th century. ARPANET (Project in U.S. Defense) in 1960 used this invention to create the communication medium for computers that ultimately evolved as the internet that we know today.
This makes online dating singles think that being the first nation of the internet, it is also the fastest in the U.S. Not true!!
USA is ranked as the 15th nation worldwide in terms of the speed of internet available to the public. Hard to believe, yet it’s true, but popularity of free internet dating sites that depends on this very public network has USA claiming the no. 1 spot as compared to other developed countries.
In terms of penetration of the internet, if we look at the three years data, in 2007 almost 8.5 million people opted for broadband connection which saw a downfall in 2008 where 5.4 million new users were added. In 2009, this figure dropped again by 1%. This was the time when USA was going through a major financial recession and the same time when free dating sites saw a rise in the user base by 1%. Exactly the opposite!
This inverse proportion of internet and free internet dating sites will be a good topic for pundits of research companies. But, for free dating sites it is a good sign which shows that this business is clearly recession proof.

Caution!! Don’t Write an Autobiography on free dating sites 2012
Saturday, March 10th, 2012
Writing a well descriptive online dating profile attracts singles towards you, but at the same time you should not write an autobiography on free dating sites that others will be to bored and uninterested. Here are top reasons to write compelling short and sweet online dating profiles –
• Writing long and boring profile can quickly kill interest of online singles as no one wants to read a life’s history unless of course you are superstar or a famous celebrity.

• The “about me” section is also not the place to write your autobiography either. Describe in a short sentence that tells others right away of what kind of a person you are and something that is unique to you as an individual. For example “I love social gathering, since I like to know about people’s cultures and their way of thinking”.
• Free dating sites give you the opportunity to express yourself in the kind of matches you are looking for. No one is perfect, so asking for all the best traits in the other person can be a big turn off for your profile.
Certainly we don’t want to discourage you from opening yourself up and writing your online dating profile on free dating sites. On the other hand you do not want to write too little as this will convey to someone that he/she is too busy in life and would also have no time for you. Try to strike a good balance of answering all the questions but keeping it short and to the point. Make use of line breaks between each point so it reads better and do not use all CAPS when writing sentences.
