Match.com gets a facelift!

Match.com has been one of our favourite dating sites for a while. Why? Because it feels good to use, it’s easy to get around, it’s safe, it’s popular and above all – it works! We love it when a site delivers. Yes, it’s not a free site and not one of the cheapest dating sites out there but what you pay for, you certainly get.

Now there’s even more reasons to give Match.com a visit. They’ve renewed their site, giving it a completely new look and adding a few extra features that help creating that unique online dating experience. For example, Match.com now offers a completely current and modern instant messenger system that allows you to talk to potential dates right there and then. After all, emails are so noughties!

And we love what Match has done to the design on their site. It looks really fresh and up to date and it’s easier to use than ever before.

That said, we are a little sorry they don’t have the option to compare profiles based on compatibility any more. That used to be a pretty nifty feature. But to make that up they have added so many new and different options for performing a search that now it’s nearly impossible to be a member at Match and NOT find a date – a soulmate, serious relationship material, a lunch date, an online romance, whatever you’re looking for.

If you prefer the old style Match with it’s compatibility testing then we recommend their sister site Match Affinity which uses comprehensive personality profiling to match couple together. Read our Match Affinity Review for the inside scoop.
