Review - PerfectMatch.com

Setting New Standards in the Search for Love!

Now, as part of running and researching LoveRow.com, I've signed up for hundreds of Internet dating services and believe me, it takes a lot to make me sit up and say "wow!". PerfectMatch did just that. This is a class act - a state of the art dating site for anyone seeking a lasting relationship! Dare I say it? This just may be the best matchmaking service on the net!

Similar in concept to EHarmony.com (see our review), Perfect Match is a service for singles seeking commitment, and uses science to find those most compatible with you. But that's where the similarities end - Perfect Match is easier to use and much more flexible. First, unlike EHarmony, they don't exclude those seeking same-sex relationships. And you don't have to wait around checking your inbox for weeks until they find a match for you - you can do your own searches. (You know best what you want, right?) Last but not least, acknowledging that chemistry is important (gee, ya think?) they let you see photos right from the start.

PerfectMatch is the brainchild of Dr. Pepper Schwartz, PHD - an award winning professor, author and expert on relationships. In addition to having published several books and numerous research papers, Dr. Schwartz has made many TV appearances, including "Oprah" and "The Today Show", and is a columnist for Lifetime TV. The test, based on 30 years of research, is based on the respected Meyer Briggs personality test but adapted to apply to issues important in a relationship. Its comprehensive but easy to take - just a series of true/false questions. You can take it over if you make a mistake.

The PerfectMatch.com website is slick and professional - well designed and easy to navigate. Subscribers have access to many useful and unique features including searches by personality type, keyword, and custom searches (which you can save and re-run another time). Their step-by-step communication process is wonderful - it eases you past those first awkward stages and keeps things moving along.

Perfect Match is so confident in their matching technology that they guarantee results! Kudos to PerfectMatch for taking the lead and setting the new standard for online dating services. Check them out!
