Browse & Search Feature

Browsing is easy and categorized separately with the help of menus placed at the top.

You can view new members, online members, members who are celebrating their birthdays today and the featured members.

The site also displays all these types of members on your homepage.

Following are the ways to search:

Screen name: This search is for the users who already know the screen names of the persons they are searching for and for the members who wish to search for a specific person with that screen name.

Quick search: quick search box is provided on the left side, here you have to give the gender, country, region and state of the partners you are seeking. You can also search the profiles with only photos/videos and who people who have been online within 24 hours.

Advanced search: similar features to most of the other dating sites and on many more search criteria. In this you have to give the education, ethnicity, beliefs, height, weight, age, smoking, drinking preferences etc.

Messaging

The messaging section has not been designed nicely but ere you can send only mails and winks to the other members.

You can send 50 mails free and then after you need to upgrade your account with a paid subscription.

Live chat is also possible and provided by the site and you can send, read and reply to unlimited mails and even do a live chat- voice and video chat after becoming a premium member of the site.

Users maybe disappointed to learn that there are no options to send virtual kisses, gifts, hugs, etc to other members.

Other Features

Mail: In this section you can see the sent, received and deleted mails by you.

Buddies: This section allows you to view your friends, latest matches, visitors and blocked list.

Chat: I particularly liked this section because even if you are not a paid member of the site it does offer you a chance to view a demo chat.

Here you can also view your pending chat, chat history, online members and the featured members. Besides this, the site does not have many features that need to be discussed here.

How Much It Costs

The site offers 1 month, 3 months, 6 months and 1 year subscription packages.
You need to pay $14.99 for 1 month, $5.99/m for a 3 month period (when billed in one payment of $19.99), $4.99/m for 6 months period (when billed in one payment of $35.99) and $3.99/m for 1 year (when billed in one payment of $49.99).

Member Base

The site does not have a great member base, but still I found people of likeable quality from all over the world including Afghanistan, India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, US, and UK.

As this site is for senior people only, you will find most of the members are above 40 years of age.

Longevity

The site has a reasonable member base and nice features but it will take some time for me to decide the effectiveness of this site.

Ranking Statistics

The site does not have that many members and the site has not seen many visitors above 1000 from last one year.

Except for the month of July 2010 in which the visitor count was 2418 and in Jan 2011 the site had got 287 unique visitors in its list. The site has been ranked 938,230 by Google web ranking.

Conclusion

The site is exclusively designed for seniors.

The look and feel of the website is nice with a contrasting black background and for those who got bored with the white background may find this a breath of fresh air. Fonts are in red which gives it a visually nice look along with its contrasting black background.

Registration process is very easy and the profile completeness needs some details but personally I think that the site should ask for more personalized questions to make the match more detailed and likeable to each other.

Login needs the email and password only and customization is just like any other dating sites.

You can only edit your account details and profile details.

Photos can be uploaded from you computer or you can directly record them and add them to your profile.

The site also allows you to add videos and I found no strict rules and regulations for photo and video uploading.

Browsing and searching is easy and most of the features are free to use.

You can make a quick search, advanced search and screen name search for your partners and the site also features its online members, new members and the members who are celebrating their birthdays.

Messaging is not so well executed and you can send 50 mails free if you are a free user but for sending mails, reply and read mails you need a subscription pack.

You can only send mails and winks to the users and the site does not offer sending gifts, virtual kisses, hugs etc.

Member base is not too good and it is decreasing continuously which shows a bad sign that this site maybe winding down.

The site does not have that many attractive features that will compel you to join this site, but you may still want to give it a try, however keep in mind it is for seniors only and the site is not picking up badly needed traffic in this competitive marketplace.
