Your single and new to the online dating world. You see a website that says 100% Free online dating and think to yourself…what do I have to lose? There is a popular site out there right now which can not be called a dating service as there is no service connected to the site. What you will find:

• There is NO office address, no contact phone number, or customer service email address. But the site is free, so I will move to the next important feature of a free online dating site.
• If it is free, it will attract scammers, spammers and married people or people looking for casual sex or one night stands. Married people do not have to worry about being caught on a free dating site as they do not have to use a credit card. Free online dating owners depend on advertisers to pay them, so you are not their customer…the advertisers are. Which brings me to the next point.

• You go to this site to meet people and are lured away by paying dating sites, or your information is sold to advertisers or marketing companies. Yes, your personal information is valuable and can be bought and sold. We have a  Privacy act for websites such as Facebook which has been in the news a lot regarding how your photos or information can be used.  This is why Facebook is free, they depend on advertising on their site to pay for us to use this service for free.  But that is another topic listed here under Facebook “Facebook to charge users in 2010″
• On the free dating sites, there is a forum where people will critique your profile.  The people who critique your profile are also members of the site, and the forum is run by members of the site..not the owner.  Imagine that it has taken you months to get the courage to finally post a profile on a dating site and one of the members decides to pick it apart.  They say how bad your photo is, that you could do with losing weight, or talk about how badly you have written your profile.  This IS what happens on free online dating sites.  Check out a few of the free dating site forums and find out for yourself.  Some sites will remove your profile with out a good reason, there are 1,000’s of complaints online but the owner of the company does not respond to the complaints.
• You post a great profile, and your photo and you are contacted by someone posing to be a Canadian or American.  A few weeks after speaking with you they ask if you can please help them as they are a business person stuck in another country as their wallet has been stolen.  You do not know that this person is actually a Nigerian scammer who preys on singles who use free online dating services.  Not only have you been conned, you have lost your confidence and dignity and are ashamed to tell friends or family about what has happened.
• For ONLY 0.21 cents a day you could be on a Paid site that screens any illegal activity (scammers from Nigeria).  You will meet other singles who have verified their identity by using their credit card.  Any abuse of the system is dealt with quickly and suspicious ads are removed immediately.

Are you ready to meet genuine singles?  Use an online dating service that cares, a dating service that provides a quality service.
