Member Base

The site has very strong member base probably due to the backing of its bigger brother FriendFinder.

As I searched all members, I found that there are many members that match my criteria but however, they don’t seem to be serious daters.

You will find members from all over the world with all age groups and a majority of them are above 20’s and below 40’s.

It is unfair to decide the longevity of any site after visiting it only for a few hours. You should revisit this section as we report on the performance along with all the other sites that we review here.

Conclusion

This is a good site from where you can meet your someone special, although the seriousness of the daters in terms of long-term is a bit questionable.

The look and feel of the website is bright and the combination of red and orange color over white background is somewhat odd but manages to work.

Registration is easy and hassle free and only takes 5 mins. to register.

The site will send you a confirmation mail in which they will send you the username provided by you and password provided by the site.
