Finding a Date On Plenty Of Fish

Did you want to start online dating again, but don't feel like spending money on an expensive dating site? Well, there are also plenty of free dating sites on the net today that can help you find your special someone too. One of the most well known, is called Plenty Of Fish. With over 145 million visitors a month, you will have plenty of prospective daters in your area to pick from.

Plenty of Fish also offers some nice features that other sites can't offer. For example, use the Relationship needs feature to find out exactly what you need in your next relationship, and how not to make the same mistakes that you made in your last failed relationships.

You will also find Plenty Of Fish's own compatibility chemistry test. This is similar to the compatibility tests found on sites like eHarmony.com, Chemistry.com, OkCupid and many others. By taking this test, you will often be able to find more deeper, long term relationships with your matches.



Signing Up To Plenty Of Fish



Signing up to the site is very simple. Just head on over to http://plentyoffish.com and create an account. You'll first need to pick a username, password, and then enter in personal information like Gender, Birthday, Country, Ethnicity and your email.

On the next page, you then need to fill out your profile information. Stuff like who you're seeking, what you are looking for, what's your marital status, and whether or not you smoke. The profile is quite detailed, and you should fill it out to the best of your abilities if you want to find some good matches. It's especially important to create a detailed About You section. Along with your picture, people will look at this first.

Finally, once you fill in your information, it is mandatory that you add your picture to the site. Choose a good one, because that's the first thing people look at and is your first impression to others. Plenty of Fish includes a really nice image cropping tool so you can crop your uploaded pictures exactly how you like them.



Once you're done, you can now browse around for prospective dates. Click on the profiles that you are interested in, and browse through them. Most Plenty Of Fish profiles are pretty simple. Lots of people have multiple pictures so you can see how they look like. Read their profile carefully and see if it matches what you are looking for. If it is, contact them through the site.



Unlike other online dating sites, Plenty of Fish allows you to contact other members for free. No surprises to make you pay for contacting a potential match. So take advantage of this feature and contact as many people as you can. The more chances you take, but the better odds of finding a prospective date.

The easiest way to find matches is to click on My Matches. When you first click there, you will see thumbnails of many potential matches that Plenty of Fish has attempted to match you with. To further refine your search though, you should use some of the filter options. Options include age, and how close a match is to your location. This is a good way to drill down and not be overwhelmed by so many potential choices.

If you don't like the matches that Plenty of Fish picks for you, make sure to take the Chemistry Test. It's a really comprehensive chemistry predictor test that will hopefully find you better matches. It's 48 questions long, so take the time to fill it out properly. The more honest you are with your answers, the better chance you have of finding the perfect person for you.



Overall, Plenty of Fish is a good online dating site for people looking for a free online dating site. It offers most of the features found in other dating sites, yet at no cost to you. The interface of the site is quite ugly, and not as polished as others. But if you can get past that, the site is pretty functional. Plus, since it's such an extremely popular site, you are sure to find some good opportunities to go on dates with people. Just make sure you fill out your profile properly.
