Web Date Info

Fling Adult and Cam Dating is doing well as usual. Just thought it was time to check back up on this site and see how things are going. One thing is for sure, they are very good at getting your attention with provocative banners. I think they have some of the best banners and promotional material of all adult dating sites. But that’s always been true. What about site changes?

With the speed of internet and computers getting faster every day, webcams are beginning to be more feasible for online daters and internet users everywhere. And what a better way to “interview” someone online than by seeing them live of camera.

In the old days of online dating, you had to trust that the pictures someone was sending you or had on their profile was current. Most likely, they have a really good photo from who knows when that they like to pass on as themself. Not anymore. With Fling’s awesome webcam services, you can get an in-depth, up-close preview of what someone is all about. You can have a lot more fun this way also.

So for all of you doing the adult dating thing online, Fling should be at least one place you check out. And if you have a webcam you should go there directly after reading this. Oh yeah, one more thing. Fling offers free webcam shows all the time to free members. You won’t find features like that at very many sites.

This is a review of WebsCutest.com. This is an adult site for sure. On their initial signup screen, their terms and conditions are tied to “Free Porn-Adult Movies” which should tell you something right off the bat.

You really do have a 1 step post to make your ad. Your ad is created within about 1 minute. If you want to uploada picture, or add more content, you have to do that after your initial setup. This site feels like adultspace.com but is not the same. They have the same thing going on though. It’s very much like an attempt to create an adult myspace. There are tons of things to do on this dating site though. To list a few.

There are lots of areas on this dating site that ask you to buy porn movies. At times, this site definitely feels as if its main goal is to promote several porn sites and a few adult dating site. The adult dating sites they tend to promote are Fling, Amateur Match, and Adult Friend Finder. You can find a lot of links to those sites here.

The best way to put it I guess would be to say that its an adult community with an adult dating option. This site has a lot more going on than just adult dating and it looks to be a little bit low in their product line.

As always I like to look at their traffic rankings on Alexa. Here is a short traffic breakdown of WebsCutest.

• Global: 61,899
• US: 12,475

Not the best out there, but not terrible as well.

HornyMatches.com comes up right away when you search sex personals or adult dating. This is a very large adult dating website. Let me emphasize that it’s strictly for adults. After seeing how well they ranked on search engines I decided to make a profile to see how the site is. As a male, you are able to to make a free profile with limited access to all features. The majority of the users here are from the United States. After you complete your profile you need to verify your email address and get your login information. After that your ad should be activated and ready for your final touches.

Once my ad was complete and I was in the dating area, I noticed that there were over 150,000 members online! That’s a ton of people. If that is true, this site is much larger than I anticipated. You can take personality surveys, post pictures, write about your ideal person, get an astrological sign review, and more. There is a compatability score you can compare to others to see how you match up. It seems like HornyMatches is doing a bit more than adult dating. They offer match making features similar to some of the larger, cleaner, dating sites. Here are some of the specific features as a free member.

• send a wink
• post pictures
• refer a friend
• add members to hot list
• invite people to your network
• block emails
• cupid match system

The main feature that is completely necessary on a dating website is sending emails. As a free member you are not allowed. You’ll have signup for one of their paying membership plans to get the most out of the site. Their paying dating membership options are as follows. Read more »

PlayNaughty.com has seen some great results in the UK and expanded their adult dating site to the US. I created a US dating profile on PlayNaughty to check it out. There aren’t as many members in the US but the site definitley has potential. Here is part of their welcome email……

“After a highly successful UK launch I thought it would be fun to open the site up to the USA and let you see what makes the site so hot in the UK.

For now, you will find that it’s 100% free to chat and mail other US members. If you want to chat to people around the world, you may need to pay but membership starts at just $6 for a day pass and you can join for life for just $75. These are introductory rates for the US only. ”

Play Naughty’s traffic statistics (number of visitors) are not too great overall. When you break it down by country the site looks much more attractive depending upon where you live. Here is the breakdown:

• Global: 94,244
• United Kingdom: 4,029
• United States: 125,726

Hopefully their new US push will grow their presence here and they can start to compete.

NaughtyConnect has recently shown up on the adult dating scene. I noticed that they are ranking extremely high when searching adult dating on Google so I wanted to take a closer look. This is an adult site so expect some graphic pictures and profiles. When I first went to NaughtyConnect, I noticed that the page felt very similar to AdultFriendFinder. Espcecially their slogan at the top that says, “Welcome to the Worlds Largest, Naughtiest. Adult Dating & Sex Personals.” It is a very similar slogan to AFF.

I made a free profile to snoop around a little more. After filling out the profile, the site seemed less and less like AFF. So I’m confident that this isn’t another front like Passion.com for AFF. Your personal profile can be as indepth or simple as you want. Pretty standard fields to fill out. Nothing out of the ordinary. You CANNOT get very far here as a free member. You must pay in order to contact others on this site. You are able to send winks without paying but you are limited to 10 per day so chose wisely who you would like to contact. This adult dating site is very limited to non-paying members. You are able to receive messages from paying members which is limited to 10 in your inbox at any time. If you want more, you’ll have to delete the ones you have to get more. Your free profile is valid for up to one year.

As a paying member you obviously get a lot more features. A lot of these features are free on other adult dating sites. Paying members get the following features that free members do not have access to.

• Messaging Members
• Instant Messaging
• Upload up to 20 pictures
• Private Albums
• Manage buddy/hot list
• Full Signup
• Even Management

There is only one premium membership option and that is the Gold package. The Gold Package costs $29.95/month. You credit card is processed by netcash and will automatically rebill you on the same day of the month until you cancel your membership. Read more »

It’s been a little while since we have taken a look at IwantU. If you are unfamiliar with them, I’ll give a very brief description. IwantU is an online dating site that has been around since 1996. That’s a long time for a dating site! The comparative advantage is their dating community options. You are given 3 choices when signing up. You can join the

• Adult Club
• Dating Club
• Alternative Club.

If you have any web dating experience, then I’m sure you would know the difference between the three. You have clean, dirty( sex dating ), and experimental. The site as a whole, definitely has a lot to offer.

When looking strictly at their traffic, they seem to be dropping slightly when looking at 3 month statistics. According to Alexa, their Global traffic ranking is about 12,000 and their US traffic ranking is almost 7,000. And to take an even closer look at where their traffic comes from, affiliates make up 22% of overall hits. That’s a huge piece. So let’s take a look at why……

Several factors are most likely responsible for such a big piece of their traffic coming from their affiliate dating program. One is that you can run your own “Private Label Dating Site.” What does this mean? It means you can have a exact replica of IwantU with your own domain name basically. This is pretty good if you are not sure if you would like to startup a dating website, or become a regular affiliate. It’s kind of in between the 2 options. Another advantage of their affiliate program is their high payout options. Their options are….

• 70% rev share
• $100 per signup
• $10 per profile
• $1 per click
• 5% webmaster referral

Not too bad as far as dating affiliate payouts are concerned. I haven’t had the opportunity to speak with anyone who is an IwantU affiliate so I cannot say how well it converts. But if it is comparable to other top dating sites, then I would say it would be worth a shot with such high options. Read more »

Adultspace formaly know as Myadultspace has been retaining and attracting adults interested in meeting other adults for quite some time now. They first started a few years back, and hardly had any traffic. Their new adult member numbers are acutally lower over the last quarter than I expected, however, their current adult members are visiting 20% more pages this quarter. That’s a huge increase in pages. That means that current members are contacting each other way more frequently and checking each other out. That is definitely something you would want as an adult looking for other members to communicate with. Now this site is similar to a Myspace, but with a sexual, adult dating mentality. So it definitely does not feel like a traditional personals community. Members make a more in-depth profile. Features include but are not limited to……

Messaging

Friend Lists

Groups

Contests

Picture Rating

Blogs

Polls

Classified Ads

Instant Messaging

Porn Videos

Regular Videos

Party Postings

and more…..

AdultSpace obviously has a ton of features. They really don’t have much of an issue with spamming problems or advertising. They do a little advertising themselves for a cam site, sexsearch, and fling. But other than that, it’s a pretty ad free adult dating community. Much like many other adult dating sites, they have more male members than female. This isn’t to say that there aren’t a large percentage of female members. There traffic based on Alexa today ranks them at 14,746 globally and 3,264 in the US with roughly 69% of their traffic coming from the United States.

AmateurMatch has been in the online adult dating business for quite some time. Since about 1999 to be more specific. They promote themselves as being a free dating site and they pretty much are for the most part. One feature they charge for is the live web cam which is understandable. It is pretty difficult to find a dating site or any site for that matter that offers free live web cam services. Another feature that is blocked off to non-premium members, is the x-rated videos. Again, this is uderstandable because at that point, you are just getting porn, not online dating benefits. They have something for all users which is a little different and that is Sex Games. They are not really for dating purposes, but more for entertainment. Pretty much just some traditional games with a sexual twist. Instant messaging is allowed between free members as well.

Their traffic ranking among other adult dating sites is much better than I thought it would be. On Alexa, they have a global ranking of 1,825 and a very impressive US ranking of 623! This puts them up there with adult dating sites like fling, hornymatches, and others. Again, I was not expecting such strong numbers from Amateur Match. I would have to say, this adult site looks to be worth its members while. Expecially for the non-paying visitors.

Big news in the internet dating world. Adultfriendfinder has been bought for $500 million. And not just by anybody. By Penthouse. What does this mean? Nobody really knows, but it will definitley change the site around a bit I’m sure. As the largest dating site on the internet for quite some time, AFF has built up quite a reputation for themselves. And it looks like a major porn magazine noticed and thinks they can make some money from it. AFF stated that they have some 1.2 million members!!! That’s a ton. I’m sure Penthouse will be heavily pushing its magazine on the dating giant’s current members. Another question is what will happen to the current affiliates that promote the adult dating site? As of right now, their payout options are not the highest, but the do have some great banners and promotional material for their webmasters to use. As far as an income standpoint, if Penthouse can keep this dating site going for a few years, it will definitely pay for its investment and then some. I guess the owners have made enough money and can never have to think about work again after making this sale.

I have to say that I am impressed by Fling . They have quite few options for free members than most dating sites. You actually dont even have to be a member to be able to use all of their services. You can browse a lot of profiles and even get in on a Video Chat without even signing up. You are just accessing it as a guest. Now it is not a free one-on-one chat, but the girl is actually there. Not just a fake chick with pre-written responses. There a lot more options once you are inside after signing up as a free member. If you really do want to be able to use all the features of this very ADULT site, you will eventually need to become a paying member. If you look on the message boards of existing users, you will see some complaints from all sorts of things so I would read those just to see what they are talking about.

I’ll say it again that this is an adult dating site. So if you want something clean and geared towards marriage, I wouldn’t waste your time here. At Fling you are pretty much going to find naked pics of people looking to hookup or exchange some x-rated pictures with a little video chat.
