FriendFinder.com
The FriendFinder network is one of the largest online dating communities in the world, and FriendFinder.com is one of their leading mainstream sites. The site offers a free basic membership with the option to upgrade to Silver or Gold memberships for a fee. Upgrades will have certain benefits not found in standard memberships, such as email alerts and enhanced profile options. A valid email is required to receive a password. This cuts down on empty and unfulfilled profiles. Email, chat rooms, groups and blogs allow the site to be quite a hub of activity, giving members plenty of chance to mingle and get to know one another. The online magazine offers dating advice, horoscopes and numbers of success stories.
FriendFinder.com offers members many high tech options, some of which are available for a free. The site is known for its more mature atmosphere, and is better geared for the person looking for a friendship or a committed relationship rather than a discreet or illicit rendezvous. These types of dating services are catered for by sister sites such as Passion.com and AdultFriendFinder.com.
