The bottom line on internet dating
 

Review - SeniorMatch.com

Senior Match is a cozy, online dating site catering to those over 50. Not one of the heavily-advertised dating services, we were pleasantly surprised to find this site rich in features and easy to use. Their unique "circle of friends" feature allows you to form your own "communities" within the site, with unlimited communication between folks in the same "circle".

Guest members can post a profile and photos, do unlimited basic searches, read and post on the message board, reply to emails and winks and participate in the "friends circles". Paid members have a wealth of additional goodies, including advanced searching, unlimited instant messaging, anonymous email, a personal blog (web log - a cross between a home page and a journal), priority listing of their profiles in search results, premium customer service (by phone or email) and access to dating advice and daily senior news.

 

Audience: Senior men and women over 50 - straight (heterosexual), gay or lesbian. Senior admirers.

Freebies: Guest membership includes posting of your profile and photos,

The Good: Very easy to sign up and use. Lots of features.
The Flaws: The forums (other tnan the message board) aren't very active, and a chat room feature would be nice.
The bottom line: Not one of the big, heavily-publicized dating sites, but it has a cozy atmosphere all its own. We like it..
