Choosing A Dating Service

Try to type "Russian brides" or "Russian women" in any of the main search engines and you'll get millions of related pages in the results. But how to choose the best one for you – that's the question. It will depend on what kind of personality you are, whether you prefer to develop your relationship by yourself or with the help of an intermediate, like a marriage agency. Below, you will find some useful advices on what to take into consideration when choosing a dating service. Paying attention to them will help you to understand what's going on and how to make the right choice in your particular case.

Look through the sites on the first pages of the search results; they will be the ones that are successful, and if the agency is successful, they are professional and your chances of a personal success are higher, too.

The advantage of big, successful agencies is that they are able to accumulate numerous applications from women, and offer you a good choice. At the same time, the larger the database is, the more difficult it is to manage and keep it up to date. The addresses of women are rarely verified, with many women posted who are already unavailable and the women are almost never contacted personally. It is not always the agency's fault - women often neglect to inform them when they already met somebody. Also, some agencies buy or rent addresses from local dating agencies and profits from sales.

Most of agencies work by selling addresses or memberships, or combining both options. Some agencies also offer gift delivery, translation and email forwarding services. The average price per address is $10, translation - $8-15 per page, and email forwarding - $4-8 per page.

Joining one of bigger agencies you will meet a high competition between male clients in winning hearts of female members. A lady featured by a well established agency can receive up to 50 letters a week, especially if she has an email address. So, most of the women do not stay single for long.

The best chance you will have with ladies who were active on the site not longer than 1 month ago or ladies whose profiles were published not later than 3 months ago (if the site provides such information).

Membership is the most optimal way that allows you access to the database of all the contacts and especially to those ones registered most recently. Thus you will be able to contact ladies who have just started their search, and are not yet involved in correspondence or relationship, so they are more likely to be attentive to your letters/emails/phone calls.

There are many entrepreneurs that start dating sites hoping to get rich quick. When it does not happen, they drop out of business leaving their customers with nothing. Look also for anti-scam associations, signs of Trust-E seal or Better Business Bureau. Check the authenticity of the seal: does it really belong to this company? Check if the agency is listed with the anti-scam site or in anti-scam associations. Many scam agencies post anti-scam icons on their sites to mislead their possible victims.

If you often meet references to a particular dating site, this will be the sign that the site is trustworthy. If you were directed to the site through an ad you placed or responded to in online personals, this will be the indication that the site is doubtful: respectable dating sites avoid such practice.
