Login & Customizing Profiles

The site requires your email and password for login and the site will automatically keep you logged in immediately after registration.

You can see the whole page full of featured members and the user menu is placed nicely on the left side while messaging options are placed at the top.

Regarding customization, you can manage and edit your account information and edit your profile details.

Photo Profile Section
You can upload photos directly from your computer and the site does not allow taking picture from webcam as offered by few senior dating sites that we have seen previously.

There are some ‘dos and don’ts’ for photo upload and the photo should be recent and must include you in the picture.

The site does not permit pictures that include children and even if they are with adults or parents.

Photos should be in jpg format and have a size of less than 5.0 MB.

The file name should not contain spaces or non-alphabetical/numeric characters, however, you can rename a photo file name by right clicking on it just before uploading.

Browse & Search Feature

Browsing throughout the site is entirely free and you can search for your partner by the different search options that have been provided by the site.

Here you can make searches by,

Postcode search: As the name suggests, the site will display all the matches that are in your post code. You can also change and search for people from another postal code.

City search: City search is the option from where you can search by city name. The site displays all the alphabets of the first character of the city where you can select the city of your choice. If you type N then the site will display all the matches that live in the city which have first letter N in its name and you can select the appropriate city and do the the search.

Username search: Here you can search for the specific username, simply enter the username that you want and the site will give you all the matches with that username.

I’m Feeling Lucky: In this section you can see all the matches that suit your profile with all their details and you can click on the next button to have another ‘feeling lucky’ match delivered.

Messaging

Messaging feature is not designed very well and here you can send mails to the other members.

The site does not allow sending of gifts, kisses and winks to the other members.

You can have chat with the members online and who is chatting now can also be seen.

The site needs to think seriously on further development of the messaging feature.

How Much It Costs

The site has some premium plans for their members but it will only be visible to you when your profile has been approved.

The site, however, does not specify how long it will take for profile approval.

Member Base

As I have gone through all the searches and I found that the site has a very strong member base. Users will be disappointed to know that the site is only for users from UK and Ireland. You will find members above 50.

Longevity

It will be unfair to decide the longevity of this site after spending only few hours on it.
I intend to spend more time to give a better assessment of this category.

Ranking Statistics

From the ranking statistics it is clear that the site does not enjoy a good flow of visitors. It has got its highest members in July 2010, where the visitor count was 2,155. The site had only 1,059 unique visitors in the month of Feb 2011 and the the site does not enjoy any Google ranking yet.
