The web based dating service industry is constantly growing in number of new sites available and in the services they provide. With so many to pick from, it may be a daunting task to find the one that is right for you. To that end, we would like to offer some general tips to help you get started.

First, the most important thing about selecting an internet dating site is the type of services they offer. The general categories are: dating, committed relationship, intimate encounters, alternative lifestyle, and etc. Their home page usually gives a good indication of what services they offer. One way to learn more about them is to take advantage of the site tour (if available) or just log in as a guest user. So, depending on what type of service you are looking for, it should be relatively easy to weed out what you are not looking for.

Next, the site must be user friendly and have an abundance of personal ad listing for your area. The best way to determine this is to log in as a guest user. Try their search tool to find potential matches in your area. If the query returns pages of results, try the advanced search feature to narrow down the result. If you see an ad that interests you, click on it for more details. If the site is too cumbersome to use or your area is not very well represented, then you may want to move on to another service provider.

Assuming you've tried some of the suggestions outlined above, you now probably have a few dating sites in mind that you would like to try. As a general rule, we suggest for you to start by posting your profile on your favorite 3 sites. Since it's usually free to post a profile, it can only increase your chances of meeting someone. Give some thought on how to describe yourself. It needs to be somewhere between interesting and truthful. The idea is to peek the other person's interest and curiosity to the point that they want to initiate contact. If possible, have a friend (preferably of the opposite sex) proof read it. Also try to include a digital photo of yourself as part of your profile. You will definitely get more responses with a photo than without.

Lastly, some of us may be lucky enough to meet lots of great people over the internet just by posting a free profile. But for the rest of us, we may need to take it a step further with email or instant messaging. Email is a great way for you to introduce yourself. Instant messaging is a great feature once communication is established because it allows you to flirt and/or carry on a long interactive conversation. Internet dating can be a fun and rewarding. Take that next step and find out what internet dating has to offer!
