Adult Dating Sites Review, helping you decide the site to use.

We have conducted online dating reviews and members experiences to determine best dating sites (sites principally aimed at meeting adults for sexual liaisons) and have provided our rating of these sites and provide feedback either positive or negative. We are not affiliated to any site and aim to keep feedback completely impartial, so please don't provide feedback if you own or work for an adult dating site. We have scored all sites on searching facilities, size, free membership facilities, Chat & IM , cost and general features; with some surprising results.

Adult Dating Contacts
Total Score: 8.83
Cost/30 days: $24.95*

Good points: Well Designed Site, lots to look at and loads to touch!

Bad points: Too much sex, good they have an ability to pause your profile.

Review Summary:
Wow, this site really rocks, its so easy to use and soon after joining we received a lot of interest from some seriously sexy women, needless to say we felt compleled to join up and sample the delights. You don't get much with trial / standard access, but enough for you to find your way around the site. They say that they have over 1 million members, this seemed a little inflated, but who knows with these sites, its the results which matter. After chatting we hooked up with a number of girls, I'll leave it to the imagination to what we got up to!

HornyMatches
Total Score: 7.50
Cost/30 days: $29.95*

Good points: Simple, good access to most features, good entertainment

Bad points: No IM and Chat, some profiles looked mass produced, search had an anoyoing bug

Review Summary:
Hornymatches is a truly enormous site, which is simple and well designed. Unlike a few other sites in its class it does offer good access for guest/free members to try the site out before deciding to pay. We felt however that probably due to the scale a large number of the profiles looked a bit suspect, although this may be due to African or Russian scamming gangs, which we guess are attracted to the scale of this site. That said we received quite a bit of attention, with at least a couple of views of the profile that we had created, and some mails. When we joined though that seemed to put our quarry off and we then had to take the pursuit. We only took out a monthly membership and on a lot of these sites it does realistically take longer than that to have a real sex contact, so maybe another time.

Find-Contacts
Total Score: 7.33
Cost/30 days: $24.95*

Good points: Free membership enables full search, profile viewing and showing interest, plus lots of other features we liked

Bad points: Lack of Chat and IM a disapointment

Review Summary:
Find-Contacts is a well designed site, with straightforward features and easy to find your way around. Profiles are informative and free membership provides full access to the sites facilities with the obvious exception of messaging. You can compile a list of other members you want to know better, and show interest by flirting with them using an appropriate emotion. The site looks well used, judging by the number of members shown as online. Like most adult dating sites, we were skeptical about the validity of some of the profiles, however when I joined I did at least 'find contact' with a couple of local girls which resulted in a real date. Obviously this may not be typical but it gave us the impression that this site delivers what it promises.

Adult Match Doctor
Total Score: 6.50
Cost/30 days: $14.95*

Good points: well put together site with plenty of features for free members

Bad points: Logon status missing, very large male/female ratio

Review Summary:
Adult match doctor scores on free access and you can do a lot without paying. It's a fairly well put together site, easy to navigate and use, and had an active user base. Its downsides are its lack of member logon status and its seemingly very high male to female ratio, our calculations put it around 15:1, so you really need to upgrade to get anywhere, otherwise you will get lost in the crowd.

Sex In the UK
Total Score: 6.17
Cost/30 days: $35.95*

Good points: Simple design, we liked the intuative interface, and eas of use. Free Membership gives search access.

Bad points: Mobile texting seemed a bit of a gimick, not sure on validity of some of the profiles

Review Summary:
Sex in the UK is the naughtier site of Date the UK. It is a well put together site with some interesting features, which to be honest offered more than actually delivered. Guest of free membership enables you good access levels to the site, with the exception of being able to send mails, IM, or interact with other members, profiles looked well presented and from what we saw, had been through some sort of personal review process which is always a sign of a quality site. Sex in the UK has a fascination with the mobile phone and interested members can text each other, this of course assumes members have entered their cell phone details. This site is UK centric, so not for us North American dwellers.

Adult Friend Finder
Total Score: 6.17
Cost/30 days: $19.95*

Good points: Large site, lots of support, lots of features

Bad points: Free Membership very limited, really need to upgrade to see if you like it, some profiles are suspect

Review Summary:
This of course is the largest type of this type and has attracted some 20+ million members over the last 10 years. It is popular helped by a massive affiliate programe. Although the AFF experience is slick it is very difficult to really see what you are getting unless you actually upgrade as functionality is very limited to free / guest members. There is a whole range of features including chat rooms, ezine's and blogs. We did have a few conversations with other members on the site but that is as far as it went.

Playnaughty
Total Score: 6.17
Cost/30 days: $29.95*

Good points: Simple to use, attractive layout, local search

Bad points: Limited photos, chat never seems to work, missing some features that other sites have.

Review Summary:
Play Naughty is a deceptively simple site that we liked, with some of these sites you can get lost in all the features and forget in the reason you came to them in the first place however with this site, you find that its well set out and easy to use. What we found a little annoying was its lack of detailed search, which maybe ok if all you are looking for is a man or women who lives nearby, but their was no facility to query for more interesting attributes. We also found that some features had a screen stating 'to be added later', not very helpful.

Passion
Total Score: 6
Cost/30 days: $19.95*

Good points: Large site, with lots of active members

Bad points: Obvious clone of Adult friend finder, with need to upgrade to really do anything

Review Summary:
Part of the adult friend finder network, with a very obvious look and feel to its sister site. And because it uses the same database the same profiles. We liked the layout and design and the enormous user base, however you do feel like a small fish in a very big pool, so takes work to get noticed. Again to really see if the site is going to work for you have to stomp up cash, which at 20 bucks is not a lot, but even so, you really should get more than a peak, before you have to join.

Adult Locals
Total Score: 5.33
Cost/30 days: $24.95*

Good points: Good looking entry page

Bad points: search very limited, membership numbers appeared small, cost too high for features

Review Summary:
Very disappointing site, promised all sorts of things since as the name suggests you would think that you can search by zip to get local, however it seemed that whatever we put into the search fields, the same results were returned. It has to be said that for the money there are many other sites offering much more for the same. It was hard to find many redeeming features of this site.

iwantu
Total Score: 5.17
Cost/30 days: $34.95*

Good points: Lots of exciting profiles to get you in the mood, and ability to create multiple profiles

Bad points: highly confusing Upgrade matrix, limited functionality for free members

Review Summary:
IWantU provides some interesting features, the one that caught our eye was the ability to set up a number of profiles for different relationship types, you know the problem, how you want to describe yourself for the casual fling is different to something more long term etc. The downside of this site was a really confusing upgrade plan which even when you have upgraded you still need 'tokens' to use certain features, the other issue we had, and have with a number of sites is the lack of functionality you without upgrading.

Sex Search
Total Score: 4.83
Cost/30 days: $24.95*

Good points: Lots of stimulating graphics, high tech site

Bad points: Limited free membership access, suspicious profiles, could not really see advantage of porn content

Review Summary:
Sex search really looked like it was going to deliver something very different, maybe it was the name. However the site was a real disappointment and apart from few mails once we joined we did not get real sex as the banners that kept flashing said. Generally the site is well put together and has all is straight forward to use. We could not see the point of the Gold room and all the porn content, since if you want that, there are load of other sites that offer this anyway.

Fling
Total Score: 4.67
Cost/30 days: $24.95*

Good points: Attractive site, large membership base

Bad points: very suspect profiles, and extreamly limited access unless you pay

Review Summary:
We reviewed fling because we heard that this site was growing rapidly and had a large user base. The name fling is a brilliant choice for an adult dating site so does the site live up to the reputation of the name. One thing's for sure don't expect to do much unless you pay, all you can view are tiny thumbnail pics of people and there is no way to even wink, flirt etc with your desired choice. We found also that a large number of profiles seemed to have come from other sites, so either this is all part of the marketing or they are victim of scamming gangs.

* All prices are in US dollars, where we could not find a USD price we made an approximate converstion based on exchange rates at the time of the review.
