Online Dating on a Budget

imageOnline dating sites are everywhere these days. Online dating is, by many estimates, one of the fasting growing internet-based businesses generating tens of billions of dollars annually for literally thousands of websites. The reason for this is simple enough: in a world where you can effectively buy, trade or do just about everything on your computer, why would finding a mate be any different? There is a far larger variety of people you can meet than would be available to you in your own town or city, and the convenience (not to mention the initial anonymity) of online dating means that you can essentially do it whenever you have a bit of free time, with hardly any preparation at all. You don’t need to look good to enter a chat room, and your hair needn’t be combed to exchange private messages. If you are interested in meeting someone who lives across town, there are sites for that – and if you are interested in getting to know someone on the other side of the world, it’s as close as the next keystroke. Today, a man from Cleveland can form a relationship with a woman from Russia as easily as he can form a relationship with a woman ten blocks away from him.Although there is a seeming endless range of online dating sites from which to choose – catering to every taste and preference imaginable – virtually all of these sites have one very important thing in common. They charge for their services and, in some cases, the charges can be quite considerable. In these current times of economic uncertainty and belt tightening as far as disposable income is concerned, it is important to make certain that you spend your online dating dollars in a way that gives you both the best chance of finding what you are looking for and fits both your budget and your personality. In order to do this effectively, you will need to determine both what kind of services a site offers as well as what kind of services you will need.* Subscription only sites – Increasingly, many of the larger online dating services – both national and international – have become “subscription only” sites. What this means is that the service charges its customers a monthly, quarterly, bi-annual or annual flat membership fee which then gives access to the various services the site provides. These flat fees will vary but, depending on the online dating service, can be quite expensive. The up side of these sites is that once you have paid your done until it is time to renew, and you have access to all of the site services. There are, however, a couple downsides to these sites. The first is that once you have paid in most cases that’s it, there are no refunds. That means that if you buy a one year subscription and find your perfect match in three months and no longer require the site’s services, you’ve paid for them anyway. A second downside is that, in many cases, people don’t need all the services that a site has to offer, but end up paying for services that they don’t use with their subscription. Before deciding on a subscription only service, make certain that you check out what services you will and won’t be using, as well what (if any) refund policy they have should you be lucky enough to find your perfect match quickly.* Pay-per-use services – An alternative to the subscription only online dating service is the pay-per-use service. Essentially, these services operate by selling points or credits to their customers, and then charging their customers a set number of these points or credits per service the customer chooses to use. For instance, access to a private chat room may cost 20 points, while searching someone’s profile might cost 3 points – and so on. There is no subscription or membership fee, however very little (if anything) is free on these sites – and that includes even basic things like profiles of potential people you might want to get to know. The obvious advantage of the pay-per-use services is that you ONLY pay for the services you are interested in. For example, if you don’t care about streaming audio or video within the service, you don’t need to pay for them. If you would rather chat, you can choose to spend your money on chat rooms or instant messaging – depending on what the service provides. In essence, you control how and where you spend your money. The disadvantage is that everything will cost you, even the most basic services.* Combination services – Perhaps the most cost effective innovation in the online dating world is the combination service. Basically, these services offer a combination of the previously two listed types of services, offering their customers the maximum control over their online dating budget. In general, these services offer membership packages at a nominal monthly change (and in many cases free) which includes access to their basic services – such as looking at profiles and pictures, how-to articles and other online databases. Additional services – such as streaming video, private chat rooms, etc – cost points or credits and are not included in the basic membership price. What these types of services do is offer the things that everyone needs to date online as part of their membership, and charge only for the specialty services that customers choose to avail themselves of – keeping how much a customer chooses to spend firmly in his or her hands.The bottom line with any online dating service is to make certain that you check the site out completely before you spend any money, and also make certain that all of the costs associated with your use of the service are spelled out in advance. A good rule of thumb to keep in mind when looking for a service is that if they won’t tell you up front how much things cost, then they probably won’t be worth what they want you to pay. Never subscribe to any service that doesn’t list ALL of their prices.Remember that whether it is finding the girl next door or hooking up with a hot woman from the Ukraine, online dating is supposed to be fun – and it is supposed to be affordable. No matter what your online dating needs are sites that can offer them to you are available online. You simply have to find them!

Www.hookmeup.com.au Announces Partnership With Australia’s Largest Free Online Dating Site, Oasisactive.com

imageIn an undisclosed deal, hookmeup is assisting oasisactive with their push into the Australian free online dating market. So successful has the launch of www.oasisactive.com.au been, within ten months of their website going live, their site has the second largest market share of online singles in Australia. Traditionally, online dating site owners have racked in mega revenue over the years from subscriptions charged to their members. So lucrative has this market been, that billionaire media tycoons have snapped up several leading dating sites in Australia and the USA to add to their portfolio of companies. Whilst the free online dating concept has been around for many years in Australia, none have penetrated deep into the Australian market such as the likes of plentyoffish.com in the USA, which is now the largest dating site in the world. The partnership between www.hookmeup.com.au and oasisactive is tipped by industry experts to loosen the grip that the three big Australian paid dating sites have. With charging their members subscriptions being the only way to remain viable for the traditional dating sites, this new free dating partnership will send a worrying message to the big three paid sites. In this fiercely competitive industry, the sudden success of oasisactive is largely due to its founder and Managing Director, Daniel Haigh. Daniel has been involved with online dating for many years and attributes his success partly to joint ventures such as the likes of the recent agreement between hookmeup and oasisactive. In recent years, Daniels group of companies, 3hgroup has been involved in other joint ventures including a partnership with MSN (MSN messenger). With over one million Australian singles searching for love on the internet each month, hookmeup and oasisactive are telling singles to forget about paying,  put their credit cards away and sign up to their dating sites for free.

I met this guy off of one of the online dating services, everything has been good so far…but he is currently going through a divorce for the second time (he 40 and i’m 26), I dont have a problem with the age difference because i have always dated older men. my problem is he’s been hurt not once but twice so now it hard for him to open up and trust…. I’m currently at the point of giving up, not only because of his emotionally rollercoaster, but he like to make promises but never fulfills them..what do you think this is a case of?

Making The Most Of An Online Dating Site

imageFor many people, the idea of going on dates and meeting new people after a certain age or amount of life experience is a somewhat daunting task. This demographic is just one of the targeted groups that an online dating site is looking to impress upon. These folks might be divorced and entering the singles scene after a long time of being away from it, and sometimes they need a little extra incentive to get the hang of it all again.

Dating websites operate in the interest of not only making some money and starting a successful business, but also in the interest of helping shy people get past some of their reservations. Although not everyone who uses a website to meet potential soul mates is a shy person, some of the people who are using such websites are looking for a buffer zone between themselves and the people they will meet. In order to not let this buffer zone destroy one’s chances of actually meeting someone special, an online dating site has got to be used to its fullest potential.

The websites that cater to people looking for dates offer different types of services as part of their website package. All of these websites encourage singles to post a profile on their website so that people can find them based on their vital information and interests. Of course, the pictures that you place on your profile are also subject to being used as criteria to either date you or to not date you. However, the profile is not the only service provided by these websites. A good online dating site will allow for different opportunities for contacting other members.

While some websites only allow you to post a profile without paying for membership, some companies will allow you to send automatic messages to other users. This type of message has to be chosen from a list of messages and can not differ from the pre-scripted text of the message. What this means is that the users can establish interest in someone, but they are not able to contact them without paying for membership.

An online dating site will tell you what is included in the membership, and what is included for free, before you purchase membership to the website. If you are only looking to gain confidence from all those smiles and winks, there is no need for you to purchase membership. However, if you are actually looking to make contact with real people, the ones behind the profiles, you often have to pay for membership to the website.

Once you have paid for membership, you should take advantage of all of the services that the website offers you. A unique new service to check out is Meet Amour, where you can not only create a profile, but also contact great singles and potentially meet someone new. Meet Amour charges some of the lowest membership prices as far as the typical dating scene goes, but offers all of the same contact opportunities, from winks to live chat and IM. Visit http://www.meetamour.com to find out more about the various services and to start searching for the next love of your life.

What percentage of your dates come from online dating sites?

I would say most of my dates (80-90%) come from online dating sites since it is more convenient (although I do not want to be dependent on it). However, some sites are riddled with spammers, so it definitely has it’s faults.

The traditional way of meeting people (face to face at parties, etc.) is still probably preferred.

What is your take on this? Which method do you prefer and what proportion of your dates come from online sites?

Thanks.
