Review of AmericanSingles.com

Home Page: www.americansingles.com

Overall

AmericanSingles.com is one of the original internet dating sites and the fact that they are still around after almost 10 years means they must be doing something right. The main distinguishing feature of AmericanSingles is the amount of original content presented to the members. There are frequently updated articles on online dating and romance, and even a bi-weekly newsleter should you choose to receive it. Otherwise, AmericanSingles is a pretty standard dating site, up there in size with the largest ones such as Match.com and Yahoo Personals.

Features

As one of the sites that invented the online dating, you could expect AmericanSingles.com to use the standard formula that has worked for so many sites in the past. Namely, posting your profile is free, as well as browsing other profiles, and receiving messages from other members. If you wish to initiate contact, then you need a paid membership.

All the standard ways of communicating with other members are there, picture profiles, e-mail, instant messaging, chat, all guaranteed safe and anonymous.

Pricing

Premium membership: Allows you to initiate contact with other members

Premium membership costs $24.95 month to month, or 3 Months for $59.95 (with a renewal rate of $19.99 / month)

Pros

Lots of members. Well designed site with intuitive and easy to use layout. Chatrooms that are actually used by members and quite lively.

Cons

For some reason, there is a limit on the size of emails you can send to other members.

Verdict

No fancy innovations, just a huge database of members, reliable service and safety of a well established and experienced company.
