Reviews Of Online Dating Services Plus Bonus Guide: How To Write An Effective Online Dating Profile
"Find Your True Love!"
As a couples therapist, I'm often asked "Do online relationships work?" Yes! Not only that is online dating highly effective, but I believe it is the future. Regarding the success of online relationships, Wired magazine forecast that twenty years from now the idea that someone looking for love without looking for it online will be silly, akin to skipping the card catalog in the library and pointlessly wandering.
In a word, online dating is efficient. In today's hyper-fast world, technology provides many advantages not only to life in general, but dating in particular. This makes online relationships easy to find, and they become not different than any other relationship. Think about it: If we can utilize search engines such as Google to research literally anything imaginable, why not take advantage of "human search engines" that are keyword focused and filter out any undesirable results? This is exactly what online dating services provide! Case in point: Try Perfectmatch.com - a Scientific Approach to Find The One You Belong with Forever.

Lavalife.com Review
Lavalife.com operates on a credit based model, in which you purchase credits which enable you to communicate with others. It costs five credits to email a potential mate (but nothing thereafter) and five credits for a 20 minute Instant Message session.
Pros: By using the credit system, Lavalife is pleasantly unique compared to other sites that automatically charge your credit card a monthly rate regardless of whether you use their service. Major kudos for that! In addition, LavaLife utilizes a simple, user friendly interface which is always a bonus.
Cost:
$14.99 = 60 credits
$24.99 = 115 credits
$39.99 = 200 credits
Chemistry.com Review - NEW!
Chemistry.com is the new kid on the block, created by the founders of Match.com. You begin by filling out a comprehensive personality profile, then the Chemistry.com software algorithm matches you to others according to your personality traits, preferences, ideals, etc. The benefit of the comprehensive personality profile is that the matches are, in theory, more accurate compared to other dating sites.
