Conclusion
The zoosk.com website looks very pleasing to the eye and is attractive and a has a quick registration process.
No audio/video chatting and uploading are available so the lack of such features brings the overall rating down a bit.
In this site you can send one mail only to other people with the free coin (credit) that you are given when registering but to use it without limitations, you need to become a premium member.
There is no built-in IM feature and you must download the zoosk IM application. You can use zoosk from your web supported device and also upload profile photos from your device.
You can also import other activities and hobbies from your facebook profile.
Sending gifts to potential partners requires you to be a premium user or you must buy the zoosk coins.
You can also share your link with some social site like facebook, twitter, myspace. There are many features available to the premium account holder only and the site is good for serious daters looking to find their ideal partners.

Dating Sites Review – Datingtorelating.net
Searching through google for more free dating sites, I came across another site called datingtorelating.net which is not entirely a 100% free dating site.
Look and Feel
Look and feel of this site is average and the top section of the home page displays some ugly advertising banners. Color combination of site is white and blue.
Registration Process
Registration to this site is fairly easy and quick. The site claims a registration process within 3 minutes. In the registration process itself, username, password, email, date of birth, city, zip code, about you and type of person you want are added. After this process the site will ask some basic details like your personality detail such as height, body type, your interests/activities, occupation/student, earning details and age group you are searching for and more.

Once you are registered you don’t get any confirmation mail and you are pretty much able to login into the site and play around. Registration to this site you must be above 17 years or over.
Logging & Customizing Profiles
You login to the site using your userid and password. After logging in, you can see your profile menus placed vertically at right side of the website looking unusually nice. The menus offered include Profile, Quick search, Detail search, Save list, Favorite list, Black list, View, Note, IM, Emotions, Chat 1, Chat2, Forum, Blog, Radio and many types of feature related to your profile.
In the customizing part of your profile, you can change your userid, email, date of birth, city, zip code, address, personality details- height, body shape, your activities, occupation, studying and earning.
Privacy features of this site are very good.

Photo Profile Section
In the photo section you can upload up to 1 Mb size per photo only and in jpeg/jpg format only. If you have any other format like – bmp, gif, png or any other you wont be able to upload to the site as they will likely to be too big. You can also set your photos as a primary photo and profile photo(s).
Browse & Search Feature
On top of the the web site pages you can find menus – Home, Free Join, Profile, Gallery, Photo, Video, Rate me, Chat room, Blogs, Forum , Radio, Classifieds.
After logging into your profile section, you will find menus where you can search for a match using Quick search and the Detail Search. In quick search you can search your date by filling some details like- which kind of person you are searching for, username, age criteria, location, state, city, zip code and you can also save your Quick search.

Quick search is not all that user friendly because most of my search results led me to a message ‘No records Found’. You need to be fairly specific in the search criteria to find any useful results. Part of their improvement programme should include a revisit to this section and making the generic search a lot better than what it is.
For using the detailed search facility of this site you must have premium dating account which means a paid subscription.
Messaging
Messaging is also a very important feature of this site like all other dating sites. You can send email, emotions, pc to pc call, and IM.
You can also use the chat room for global chats with every online persons like the Yahoo Chat Room and use feature like smiles and video chat. Again, these features are for premium dating account holders only.
