The thrill and excitement surrounding the 100% free information given on the top-rated internet dating sites compelled PC mag editors to review and rate the best 4 among these online dating services: this is for the purpose of offering you a 'First try, then buy, ' experience! Others like you looking to find a dating partner and any friends you know looking for a match can also benefit from other sites, (e.g. Lavalife.com) which offer free dating information, including profiles of registered members and have a high rating of success among users; eHarmony.com and Match.com are other hot favorites of those looking for a date online.
You can also try and check out Yahoo Personals though this has got a low rating as users have not found it beneficial in terms of information offered or profile listings that are worthy of a follow-up. (Many a time, there are free online dating sites that paste false or made-up profiles simply to get users to click on them, which are not the practices with the better websites that require registration or perhaps even a small membership fee).
Research on the best online dating sites reveals some of the contenders for the top slot being Match.com (nearly 250,000 members annually trying to find a date), eHarmony.com (vast list of profiles), True.com (also offers users the benefit and security of a thorough criminal-background check as well as relationship status/marital checks) for American citizens looking for a relationship on online sites.
Besides the above mentioned, there are other site reviews and ratings found in general research and studies conducted on the various places people look for dates in, including Personal advertisements like Date.com and Nerve personals. However, further studies reveal that only Match.com and Lavalife.com have received perfect scores as far as finding matches are concerned and Date.com and Nerve Personals come a good second to them.
There are also review forums depression chat and websites that give net users a real feedback on the various online dating site offerings for American singles and others looking for a match with a specific purpose (e.g. same faith, only for matrimonial purpose not just dating etc) including Soulmatch.com and Beliefnet.com. Depending on how willing a person is on finding someone from a different faith from their own, they can sign up for the various online dating sites and hope to have their dreams come true.
