Locate The Top 100 Free Dating Sites And Meet Your Perfect Partner

By Bree Davies


In 1700 a few decades after the first newspaper hit the stands the first matrimonial service came about. They ran different advertisements for both men and woman who were trying to find that perfect wife or husband. Now there are more than 100 free dating sites available.

In that time if one was over twenty one and still single it was frowned upon by family and friends. Many turned to this kind of dating although it was seen as an act of desperation. In the 18th century these matches resulted in many finding true love although it was never mentioned to others outside the circle.

One of the most popular ones in the United States is Xpress.com. They have received five stars from their clients and guarantee that the process of filling in ones profile is very easy and simple. It is up to the person filling in the lines on how much or how little information needs to be given. From each of the dates that have been set up only one did not show.

The first internet dating service was kiss.com and match.com and were both registered by the same person. This was in 1994 and 1995. At the time there were other sites up and running but they tendered to be more for the "mail order bride" than actually meeting someone and getting to know them first.

Many of the sites were encouraged by the Internet Service Providers themselves where forums and chat rooms were set up mainly for singles. These were advertised right from the beginning and became very popular. By this time the web was still not well known or widely used by others. By the time 1996 came around there were about sixteen different sites listed in Yahoo alone. Others such as Friendfinder and OneandOnly started to become popular a little later. Now there are so many that it leaves one unsure of which is the best to select.

When the romance movie "You've got mail" hit the circuit in 1998 it became even more popular as a way to meet and date. This also gave an opportunity for those that did not like each other in reality to find some kind of a mutual topic that they could both speak about. This would give each a different insight on what that person was actually like.

Social networking came about in the years 2001 and 2002 when the website dot.com crashed. Face book, Friendster and MySpace became very popular where people could meet others and become friends and not be interested in looking for someone to date. This did not leave the bad thoughts that the actual websites tended to do, so it may be another point to ponder.

In America the population still spends millions for online dating and is considered to be the second highest "paid content". There are now sites in every town, for every sexual orientation and for every religion. According to a survey there are about twenty million people using free dating websites as well as others every month. There have been more than 120 000 marriages recorded just from online relationship sites.
