Our Experience with Match.com
Experience is one thing that Match.com definitely has on its side when comes to online dating.

What Sort of Singles Will You Find on Match.com?
Match is an online dating platform designed for all kinds of singles, so theoretically there is something for every. Whether you're looking for casual dating, something serious and long-term or just want to meet new people, every need is catered to. You can also search for other users internationally, which is particularly useful if you are travelling and want to find someone to show you around. Age-wise members tend to be between 20-30 on average.
What is free on Match.com?
You can register for free on Match, and there is also a questionnaire to fill out which will giveo ther singles a better idea of your personality and who you are. However, the form doesn't give you partner suggestions like matchmaking sites do. Rather, it is there to simply provide more information. You can search for other members using a filter. If you want to start a conversation, though, then you'll have to pay.
Match.com is the most famous dating site worldwide.
