OK Cupid
Probably one of the most recognizable brands on the digital dating scene is OK Cupid. With a reputation for serving broad sections of the population, OK Cupid has evolved over the years and kept its finger on the pulse. There is now a huge range of categories to suit diverse groups.
Whether it’s at home or in a unlikely international locations, OK Cupid helps you find the perfect match by asking lots of questions that position you within the algorithm and suggest matches based on percentages. OK Cupid works like a social media platform to build relationships.
Tinder
If you want a great digital dating service without the price tag, then consider Tinder. Tinder is one of the most popular dating services on the planet because it provides many of the same features you get from other big brand dating apps without the cost. Find out more right here.
As with other dating apps, Tinder uses a casual swipe left and right feature to help you identify someone for your next date. Unlike other apps, you can choose to stay anonymous if you want, and you won’t receive lots of spammy emails in your inbox. It’s easy to get a date on Tinder.
Bumble
Whether you are looking to form new friendships after moving to a new place, want to connect with other professionals in the area, or you want a straight -forward date on the weekend - Bumble is a great choice. Not only is it user-friendly, it’s sensitive to gendered bahaviors.
So what exactly does this mean? On conventional dating apps, women can sometimes feel put off by unwanted attention, so Bumble has addressed this by empowering women to make the first move. After a match is made, it’s up to the female gender to reach out to the prospect.
Feeld
The world of dating is changing! Not only are there more genders than ever before, but people are choosing alternative lifestyles such as polyamory. Feeld takes account of these changes by offering a wide range of genders and options for couples to match with singles or other couples.
Feeld runs a paid subscription model much like OK Cupid, but you will find it is significantly cheaper than OK Cupid and comparable in terms of its diversity. Despite this dating services are risky for investors, find out why dating services are considered high risk businesses.
Lex
If you want to explore the queer community, make new connections, and possible go on dates, then Lex is the perfect dating app. Relatively new to the dating app landscape, Lex is all about creating a welcoming space for queer people regardless of how they identify. It’s worth noting that Lex is more of the social media side of dating apps focused more on community building.
