Chapter 6:
Free membership dating sites
Synopsis
There is a lot of free membership dating sites on the internet today and understating what they are really all about will help the prospective client decide if this style of sites is suitable for their intended use.
Free dating sites are usually filled with members who are not really extremely serious about finding and making the one commitment to a lasting partnership.
Most of the members sign up at these sites just to “try” their luck, while others sign up to make new friends and form interesting liaisons, but the expectations are usually nominal and this makes the site very wide based and lack any form of discrimination.
Free Sites
Free membership sites usually don’t have very stringent policies in place and thus the protection feature is not really a prominently expected or required aspect of the sign-up exercise. In this case the member will not be assured that the information provided is honest and trustworthy. There is very little tracking done to ensure all members have legitimate intentions for possible connections with others.
Most free dating site are rife the pop-up advertisement and emails. This can be a very annoying interruption for the time and internet access restricted individual. Being bothered by such interruptions that don’t really have any connection to the dating service is not only annoying, but is also time consuming to have to keep clicking them close. A lot of scammers feature their wares on this type of sites and sometimes this eventually affects the credibility of the sites.
Some free sites only accept members from certain parts of the world or from certain social standings. However, there is very little verification exercises that are conducted to ensure those who sign up as members are actually following the requirements completely. Therefore, although the site has certain rules and stipulations there is no guarantee that all the members conform to these prerequisites.
