You’ve been matched according to your mullet; you’ve successfully sought your gene partner; found love by first smell and even courted singles with the same food allergy. For sure, it’s getting harder and harder to come up with a quirky idea for a dating site. Words of Heart, however, has managed to add a rather interesting spin to the formula by creating a matchmaking system based on passwords, of all things. The basic premise is that the passwords represent your innermost thoughts, therefore they are the ideal link between daters. And we thought Ghost Singles was weird… Read More…

Say No To Facebook While Dating Online!
Ever since the big Cambridge Analytica data-collecting scandal exploded, people are far more aware of their privacy, especially if it involves their Facebook account. However, you need more than changing a few settings on your social media profile to prevent companies from secretly profiling you. For example, did you know that the Facebook app collects call records and SMS data from Android devices, things it has absolutely no business with?
Unfortunately, separating the social media site from the rest of our lives isn’t so easy. Over the years, it’s become the norm to integrate your Facebook account with various websites as a means of saving time registering. Doing so is convenient but at the same time highly risky since you are handing over further information to sneaky data-mining companies. The situation is especially nasty when it comes to online dating because blowing your cover could lead to scams or online harassment. Read More…
SilverSingles Free Trial
SilverSingles is a dating site catering to 50+ singles who haven’t given up on the idea of love. The service has a modern design and it’s available on smartphones, too. But still, the most alluring feature is without a doubt the free personality test that is tied to the registration. The results are then displayed in the profile section, as well as implemented into the matchmaking. Be aware though that the free account is heavily restricted when it comes to available features. It’s possible to only see your partner’s profile and message them if you subscribe.

How Often to Message Your Online Date
Hooking up with someone on a dating site is art. Or more like taming a magnificent beast. You see, rushing up to your partner, burping a cliched line and expecting a date instantly is always doomed to fail. You should not only know how to approach others on a dating site, but the timing must be impeccable too.
Some are unaware of the fact that time stamps and the regularity of chat messages or texts tell a hidden story about the sender’s life. And so, if you wish to master the online dating world, you must learn to become patient and tactical with the conversation. Read More…
What to Do If You Hate Online Dating
Online dating is not for everyone. It’s a personal choice as to whether you pursue romance via traditional means or put your dating fate into the hands of the internet. Still, there is a growing group of singles who started on various online platforms but have since grown weary over time due to the lack of success or bad matchups. So, what should you do if you regret your time spent with online dating?
Well, don’t give in to the hate, that’s for sure. Condemning this form of relationship hunting forever just because you haven’t yet found your soulmate is detrimental to your morale and spirit. Instead, let us help you rebuild the passion for your love life. Read More…
The Best Online Dating Username Tips and Advice
In December 2017, OkCupid announced a rather controversial change, deciding to delete all usernames in favor of a system that displays the actual first name of its users to one another. The reasoning they gave is that old usernames such as “BigDaddyFlash916” are convoluted and your potential partners might find it hard to remember. Not surprisingly, the people on OkCupid revolted against the idea, swarming the blog post with rightful criticism.
But it’s not an easy problem to overcome, so it’s worth taking some time to look at the pros and cons of usernames. And if you’re using a dating site that prefers usernames, there are some important strategies to know to help you stand out from an oversaturated dating crowd with just your self-created nickname.

Online Dating While Traveling
Dating foreign singles in exotic locations is a tempting idea. Often labeled as ‘vacation dating’, the idea of building an international relationship is a concept that many will have thought about at some point. Whether you are a foreign student, working abroad or an avid traveler, you’ve probably played around with the idea of falling in love with someone away from home, even if that might mean a long-distance relationship later on.
Luckily most dating sites support the notion of temporarily changing your location, meaning you won’t need to create a new account. The system usually recommends matches that are in a closer vicinity, therefore changing the current ‘base of operations’ in the settings menu will instantly open up the door for on-the-road romances. In any case, we recommend picking a dating site with a larger audience and an international focus, like OkCupid. Read More…
JDate vs JSwipe Comparison
At first everything seemed normal between JDate and JSwipe: the former is a veteran of the online dating sphere catering to Jewish singles, while the latter is a newcomer who created the ‘Tinder of Jews’. However, in 2015 Spark Networks, the group behind JDate, filed a lawsuit against JSwipe, claiming that the then-newcomer violated trademark laws by incorporating the letter ‘J’ in its name, which is the intellectual property of Spark Networks’s “J-family” brand. JDate also claimed that they have patented a software algorithm that determines mutual interests and notifies singles of matches, a core concept for all dating services.
Believe it or not, the nasty dispute had a happy ending: a few months after the lawsuit, the two companies made up and teamed up. Still, even though both brands are now under the same roof, their features are widely different. Read More…
How to Date a Gamer
If you are a proud prowler of the online dating word, chances are high you’ve encountered a promising partner who self-identified himself or herself as a ‘gamer’. But don’t be so hasty in your judgement! Just because someone chooses video games as their hobby, it doesn’t necessarily mean they are less romantic. It’s the opposite, to be frank. Gamer boys and girls can be passionate lovers if you are willing to give them a chance. Who knows, maybe they will help you discover the gamer inside you as well! Read More…
