What is the best site online to find people to date?

I can think of a handful of dating and matching websites. I'd like to know what sites have the best records of matching compatible people? Which sites have the most active members

Also, please note if the site is free or subscription based.
Tip for best answer: M$1.00
Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

It's hard to say there is one best site, as each are different.  Some sites have better records of matching people, but that does not mean it's the best site for you.  I believe Match.com has one of the better records. I would recommend signing up for a few free ones and maybe one or two for pay ones.  There are different philosophies on this, as some say the pay sites have more serious members. This is not always true.

For the rankings of dating sites, you should check out Online Personals Watch.  You will also find out about the latest dating websites.

Online Personals Watch
http://www.onlinepersonalswatch.com

For December 2008, the highest hit websites were:
  1. Singlesnet
  2. PlentyofFish
  3. Match.com
Just because a site gets a lot of users, does not mean it's the best site for you.
Here are some recommended dating sites to check out:

OkCupid (FREE)
http://www.okcupid.com
It's a great free dating site, with quizzes and questions. Has great features on the site from bookmarking users, rating them, chat, etc. After you hit a certain age it gets harder to date because someone can easily say they are on it for the quizzes only.

DateHookup (FREE)
http://www.datehookup.com
A really good free dating site where you can become friends with people as well as date.  You can customize your page, and add music to it if you know html.

DownToEarth (FREE)
http://www.downtoearth.com
A new free dating site similar to Match.com (it's owned by Match.com) where people are rated after you date them to make sure they were the person they said they were. Very simple profiles.

Ignighter (FREE)
http://www.ignighter.com
Good for those who like to date with a a group of friends.  If you would like to team date, this site is good

Zoosk
http://www.zoosk.com
A very simple site where you can quickly flip through pictures of people. A quick profile, that's all.  Not free.

Speed Date
http://www.speeddate.com
Online speed dating. You should have your webcam ready for this one, but it's not required. Similar to Zoosk. Not free.

WooMe
http://www.woome.com
Online speed dating. You must have a webcam for this one. Webcams are required.  

Engage
http://www.engage.com
People vote for you to date someone.  This is more of a social dating concept.

Chemistry
http://www.chemistry.com
For those who are looking for long term relationships only and know what they want. Not free.

eHarmony is a dating site, yet more so a personality matchmaking service for those seeking long term commitments. It seems like it's more like Chemistry. It's another one I might add to the list.

I haven't seen anyone mention eHarmony. Is it not considered a "dating" site?

I used OkCupid some time ago. It's free and it caters mostly to a young crowd.
I went on a couple of dates with nice guys. None worked out but it was mostly my fault. I was going through a nasty break up and was not at all into the dates. The people on it are mostly normal. Lots of students (at least in the Boston and New York areas).

It also works to just meet friends as it's not just a dating site. And it has fun personality quizzes.

OkCupid is very good, and I use it, but after you hit a certain age your chances to actually dating seem to decrease. OkCupid seems best for the 18-26 year old range. If you like taking fun quizzes, it's also a very good site for that. Highly recommended!

For only $15 a month eHarmony will give you quality women, so I suggest that.

Whether you are only looking to "get lucky" or are actually looking for love, eHarmony is the way to go!

(they should pay me to do this stuff!)  a best answer would be a fine consolation

I know several married couples who have met their now spouse on match.com. Of course I firmly believe it's up to you while using the service on whether or not it will work. You need to answer all questions honestly and be prepared to sift through profiles which won't interest you at all. Trust your instinct and if you decide to meet someone from the site let someone you trust know where you are going. Make sure it is a public place.

Live Date Search. I think its new, they offer a scam free online dating and they have fun features you can flirt and enjoy. :)
