Summary

Firstly, AmericanSingles.com is not just for people in the US, it does have profiles from other countries too. On its home page, you can see how many people are browsing, which gives the impression that there are a lot of people to meet here.

The signing up process
It is free to join, load a profile and photo to start dating. You can even upgrade to a Premium Membership for email, instant messaging, and real-time chat. You can even do video chat, send customisable astrology compatibility charts and of course all the normal methods of getting in touch with your date.

You can browse for free and there are then options to flirt, add to your hotlist , email or send an ecard. This site is great that it has added a lot of ways to communicate. They are very up to date with modern technology.

One of the nice things about this site is that you can see who has flirted with you, viewed your profile, hotlisted you etc. Which makes it easier for you to respond to someone with a lower chance of being rejected, if you know that they are interested.

One of the fun things about this site is that you can chat to anyone you like in the chatroom, or even open up another chat room yourself. One thing though, these chat rooms are not moderated and it can get a bit too busy, with the different fonts and colours flying around.

From the experience of some of the people I have met on here, I would say that you get quite a good crowd of people that you would happily make friends with.

All in all, the AmericanSingles.com site makes for a great dating experience, with nice design and really up to date online dating features.

Summary
Yahoo! Personals is one of the largest dating networks with over 10 million members. Being part of the Yahoo family, it is a very fast loading and easy to use website with many unique feature that are not found in many other online dating sites.

It is simple to use and the sign up process is quite comprehensive. You can start by entering some basic information about you and where you live which is just the basic search criteria. This will bring up a lot of matches but ideally you need to refine the search so yahoo offers an advanced criteria search.
In order to do this, you need to log in with your yahoo id.

In the advanced search mode, you can provide more details about your ideal match, including their geographic distance, age, height, appearance, family, personal and professional attributes. When you check the attributes it offers 3 choices for each including must have, nice to have, doesn’t matter. Yahoo makes it easy to create your profile and make choices by including little help sections on the right side of the page so you can easily understand what some of the terms mean.
In this detailed matching process it even includes sections like ‘group affiliations – vegetarians, disabled, political views and astrological signs. For many people these are important search criteria that will help you narrow down the right match and most other sites don’t even bother with. However, the interests section is slightly sparse and they might need to include more sub-sections.
With advanced searching, the results become more refined and a match-scale shows you as a % how close a match they are to you. This is well presented and easy to understand. You can then view the profiles of matches who take your fancy, read more about them and maybe consider subscribing so you can contact them. You can also act as a matchmaker for your friends by finding people and forwarding the link.
With so many free features available before you even pay for subscription, this is a good choice for many who want to try before they buy.

Once you have signed up, you have a personal mailbox to send and receive mail. You can also upload up to 5 photos to your profile. Yahoo includes “conversation starters” a choice of 50 questions potential dates will have to answer to start a conversation going.

Another unique feature is to add a voice or video profile too. This is not found in many other dating services. To communicate with other members on the site, you have to sign up for membership.

Thumbs up
You can get matches emailed to you, saving you the time to browse through thousands of matches. Another nice feature is that once you’ve logged out and return a few days later, it shows you recent matches to any saved profile you have.

Thumbs down

You can’t restrict you search to just the people who meet your criteria, age, height, geographic location, etc, which would make it easier to and less time consuming to meet the right person

There’s a childhood-based personality test to take if you want to use that to find most compatible matches. You can also answer a series of questions about whom you think would make a good match for you. Besides checking off boxes, you can rank in order of importance what sections matter the most to you.

For more general communication, post a message on the forums where the subjects range from dating to news and current events. All these chances for connections earn this site 10/10 for quick contact. Jewish Mingle may miss the mark on profile quality but at least it delivers on the ease of contacting your matches.
Membership runs at $15 a month, which is pretty standard for these kinds of sites. Before using this site, check out the profiles before paying anything, since the quality of profiles seem to depend on your local area. There also seems to be more women committed to completing their details and adding photos.
Thumbs Up
A lot of means of communicating and a very useful free trial.

Thumbs Down
They have a very casual approach to the completion of the personal profiles which has some default answers already completed. If you don’t take notice, you can mislead in some issues that are important to you.

Summary
Udate in one of the most fun and easy to use online dating sites that we have reviewed and it has over a million members with thousands joining up every day.

There is a free trial so you can sign up and complete your profile and start browsing matches within 5 minutes. In your profile, there are some drop down menus to make some quick choices of what kind of relationship you are looking for and their required profile. They make this process easy by making you tick a list of boxes, which takes about 2 minutes. The next page then immediately takes you to the list of members who match the boxes you ticked. You can immediately browse the list of matches they found for you including pictures and personal profiles.

One of their unique features is that you can see who is online and send them a whisper which is like an instant message. You can upgrade to a paid membership and initiate emails with other members through your private email box.

Another unique feature for udate is something called “encounters” which shows you who has looked at your profile and so you can expect them to know that you have looked at their profile too. If there is interest, they will get in touch. You can also see who has added you as a friend and which appears high in the match list. For a lot of people, this feature is what makes udate a favourite with other online daters. You can increase your success rate if you reply to someone who has browsed you and added you as a friend. It makes you less hesitant to email that person to start a conversation as it reduces a lot of the guesswork in whether your profile is interesting to other person.

In short, udate is a very easy site to use and to browse. The joining procedure is simple and the profile creation is quick. You can browse matches within a few minutes of joining up.

You can’t switch off from people you are not interested in and don’t want to talk to and you will continually be matched to this person. You can’t read emails that are sent to you unless you are a paid member.
