Date.com Review

Add caption

Date.com, "the new way to date," was launched on Valentine's Day, 1997. The site has more than two million male and female members worldwide who actively use the site because it offers a convenient and safe way for singles to meet. The site is adding new members at a rate of between 120,000 and 200,000 per month. Thus far, thousands of couples have begun successful relationships through Date.com, with at least 50 marriages taking place during the past year.
Once inside Date.com, you can search their database of millions of singles. Search by location, age, interests, and over one hundred other personal preferences. Show interest in other members by just clicking a button. All of this is free.
When you decide that you are ready for more personal contact, you can upgrade to a gold membership and communicate with millions of members via IM, email, or chat. Gold membership fees range in price but can get as low as 25 cents a day.
You might wonder why someone would choose to pay a fee to communicate with other singles on the net when there are so many chat rooms online where you can talk for free. It's because of the quality of their members. Singles who subscribe to Date.com are professional, educated, and are serious about finding a healthy, happy relationship.
