We have recently reviewed many dating websites targeting a niche market like punks, music lovers, gadget lovers, faith believers etc. Today we are going to review a website designed specifically for geeks. This is again a paid dating website and the requirements for the level of service in this category needs to be high.

The site also allows you to send mail through Gmail, Yahoo Mail, Hot Mail, AOL or any other mail services and it is refreshing not to be able to see banner advertisements.

Registration Process

Registration through this site is free and has a five step process.

The first step is to create your account by giving your username, password, state, country, zip code, gender and height and also for the person you are looking for.

Step 2 asks you for basic information about yourself and your match like ethnicity, education, relationship status, children, employment, smoking, drinking habits and religion. The website also asks you about your and your match, political views, body type, desired relationship, your sense of humor and relocation.

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.
