This site has picked up a lot of momentum in the past 3 years, featured in numerous Hollywood movies and endorsed by the hit TV show, ‘Dancing with the Stars’. Though one of the most expensive dating sites available, it has won over online audiences with its slick user-friendly presentation that backs up its slogan, “the intelligent way to approach online dating.” It may take a bit long to sign up for its patented ‘Duet Total Compatibility System’, but the number of testimonials from satisfied couples attest to, the service has been proven to work.
You’ll appreciate: the rather even male-to-female ratio of the site and how effective the tools within the Duet matching system are at finding compatible matches. ‘Icebreakers’ are a great way to make an initial introduction to someone under a casual and pressure free pretense. One benefit of the high subscription price is that it keeps the community upscale and eliminates most unserious participants.
You won’t like: that it’s rather expensive, although if you pay for a year in advance, it comes down to about $20 per month. According to some users, the email system takes a while to send messages at times, and it takes a long time to complete your initial profile to start using the service. If you have a short attention span or a busy schedule, this might pose an obstacle to getting registered, but once you’re set up, it’s fairly easy and convenient to use, and you won’t waste a lot of time on bad dates.
Distinguishing Features:
- The ‘Duet Total Compatibility System’ claims to be based on 30 years of scientific research (which means they started working on it at the inception of the Internet), and appears to be very effective in matching compatible couples.
- ‘Icebreakers’: allow you to send simple conversation starters to indicate an interest in someone without an initial investment of time or emotional energy
