A Further Look At AFF (AdultFriendFinder)

Posted by admin On November - 29 - 2007

AFF is a very popular topic of discussion on dating review websites. And we know their traffic rating is the highest of any dating site in the United States and the rest of the world. But where are their users concentrated? What states have the most members, and how many members are we talking about? These are all questions I have about the dating site of dating sites. So here is a little info I collected by logging on and searching out what cities are the most popular.

 

Active Members By US State

 

California – 1,112,855 members

Texas - 756,280 members

Florida - 701,065 members

New York – 632,497 members

Illinois - 404,852 members

Pennsylvania – 401,038 members

Michigan - 327,068 members

North Carolina320,245 members

 

All States Combined – 10,292,779 members

 

International Active Members by Country

Canada - 1,055,593 members

Mexico - 892,587 members

Spain - 869,245 members

France - 1,360,721 members

Germany1,453,910 members

Italy - 848,696 members

United Kingdom - 1,778,927 members

The United States definitely has BY FAR the most profiles than any other country on the planet. That really is no surprise. Europe definitely comes in second place. So if you are affiliated with any of the locations listed above, base on numbers, you would have a much greater chance finding dates on this website. A great follow up of this post would be to compare another competing dating sites numbers. The only problem is I’m not sure how many other sites break down their users as in-depth as AFF does. If this kind of information is accessible, I’ll make a page and display the numbers to as many popular dating sites as possible.

US Dating Sites

Posted by admin On November - 29 - 2007

I notice on many other blogs that talk about online dating websites, they usually put a list of the top 5 dating sites or so. Usually a few always make the list. But, most have one or two that seem to be out of place. They are not very big, most of the time unheard of, and have a very poor alexa rating. I know that they aren’t basing their preferences off the same I am, but to me some of their recommendations just dont make sense. I personally think that the bigger the dating site, the better your chances are of finding singles in your area, based purely on statistics. If you join 2 sites, and one has 5,000 singles in your area, and the other has 25,000 in your city, the odds of finding someone would appear to be greater on the site with more singles. Now quality always plays a role when dealing with dating sites. I also noticed that terrible sites dont do as well as good ones. So you’ll never see a poor quality dating site with an alexa rating of under 1,000 or so. People will chose a better site when there is one available. That being said, here are the top dating sites according to alexa in the United States.

Alexa Rating Per Site in the US

38. AdultFriendFinder

97. Match

140. Fling

143. Singlesnet

212. Hornymatches

235. PlentyofFish

286. Eharmony

Now just because these sites are the biggest in the US does not mean that there aren’t others that are bigger overall. But these are some of the biggest sites are far as alexa ratings go, which is saying how many people visit their website. Remember that a lower rating is better. Google’s rating is 1 in the US for example. Like I said in previous posts, there are constantly new sites coming out, so you’ll have to excuse me if I left out any major sites.
