Answers:
Are
all Dating Services the same?
Definitely
not. Size is the most obvious difference between different
services. The larger a service then probably the better your
chances of finding the right person for you. Dating services
also vary in price and facilities offered. For example, Singles
Finders Dating
has a large database of singles which can be searched by age
and location. Eharmony
takes a different approach. By identifying the characteristics
which best lead to long term compatability, they match up
people with someone best suited to their personality.

Are
some dating services really free?
Yes and
no. Clearly, a dating company which employs staff and operates
a service must be making a profit to stay in business. Some
of the leading companies such as Singles
Finders
offer an initial free registration. The way in which these
work is that visitors may post their own profile and view
the profiles of others, but if they want to contact a single
whose profile they have seen then they must take out a paid
subscription. The benefit of this system to the new visitor
is that it gives him or her the chance to sample the service
before committing to a paid subscription.

profile form. To find out more about this go here

Which
is the largest online dating organisation?
Very difficult
to answer because several claim to be. But it's not just about
being the largest. While not the largest, Singles
Finders Dating Parent Site is
often described as a high-integrity online relationship network
and there is no doubt that it does what it can to protect
its members as far as that is possible. It is also a big organisation
indeed with millions of members worldwide. Obviously, a bigger
organisation will have a greater number of singles profiles
available...

What
about safety online? Are there ways to tell if someone is
really who they say they are?
Yes, there
are ways to tell. Watch out for someone who seems too good
to be true, and only communicate via email or online chat
to begin with. Look for inconsistencies and being evasive
when you ask questions... Read more here: Playing
