More than just a dating site, a community of singles with local events, dating articles and stories by members. I think Date.com was one of the first internet dating sites - it started in 1997 on Valentines Day of all days. It has a lot of people, around 2 million or so - if you believe what you read on their sites. The membership fee is $24.95 for a month or $50 bucks for 3 months, pretty much the norm. The site also offers a webzine called Date. Info has articles, member spotlights, romance, dating and relationship advise, horoscopes etc. The site offers no tour to experiences the features but the sign up is quick as well as creation of a profile in less than 10 minutes with rather simplistic search capabilities. The site offers no animated tour prior to sign-up other than some text in the about date.com section. I don't know if it was just me, but I posted the exact same profile I used on Match.com, same photo, same headline, etc.... I never got 1 email, on Match.com I got 6 emails. I guess the women on Date.com are just more picky! Date.com does have a couple of cool features I find fun to use. They show you who's birthday it is just in case you want to say "I have a BIG present waiting for you!" Just kidding!!! You can also see who's new - another good way to check out the latest babes to join the site. I especially like the women from the Ukraine! My point is, Date.com seems to get a lot of International traffic. Finding a Russian bride would be no problem on this site. Their "Who's Online" screen sucks in the fact you have to click on a little camera to see their picture. Too much work for the visually focused male if you ask me. It's also cool to show people's Horoscope (I'm a Virgo BTW), but I don't get the Chinese Horoscope thing - which states I'm a RABBIT. I've been called a DOG before, but never a RABBIT. What does this have to do with anything? Can someone explain it to me? They have a flirting tool called "Show Interest" which was pretty dissapointing because no one showed any interest in me. Oh well, maybe I should NOT have said I made $25k or less a year in my profile - I didn't think money mattered ladies! You can post up to 5 pictures but they make it hard for you to look at all of them. No Next/Prev button on the photo viewer. They do support local events with their Date Events. From the pictures of the Caribbean Cruise last June, looks like I missed a good time. If you attended, write me and tell me how it was! The only thing about their event system is it does appear to link back to my profile. When I click on a couple of the links, it asked me to log into Date,com, which I was already logged in. Date.com has a really cool COMMUNITIES area. They have message boards and articles on dating. I love the "Dates From Hell" section. I especailly enjoyed the Chinese take-out story - Barbie we need to add some Communities to our site, some of these stories cracked me up! All-in-all, Date.com is a cool site. But guys, I think it will be necessary to work your mogo on this site if you expect anyone to notice. Go to site now, click Date.com
What we liked most: A lot of profiles to choose from. The site is well designed, easy to navigate around. A lot of International members, good selection of people in all the zip codes. You've got to check out their Communities - "Dates from Hell" section! Stuff we didn't like: If someone has more than 1 photo attached to the profile it is somewhat cumbersome to view them all. Didn't get the same number of messages and introductions I normally get when I join a site, post my photo and fill out my profile. Guys - we need to be the assertive ones on this site!
