I have been going round in circles on any no membership dating sites that have a high success rate and could use some real experience. I do not need a feature list on membership dating sites — I need to know about local density.

Assume I know nothing beyond the obvious about the free-tier sites. There is no version of membership dating sites where the count of accounts actually online sorts itself out without you doing something.

Concretely, for membership dating sites:

  • Treat your first membership dating sites profile as a draft, because genuine daily activity punishes lazy ones
  • Check what membership dating sites does about genuine daily activity before you upload anything you would not want indexed
  • Give membership dating sites a fortnight of daily use before calling genuine daily activity a dealbreaker
  • Compare membership dating sites against the free end of the market on the same week, or the comparison is meaningless

Anyone with a recent any no membership dating sites that have a high success rate story, please jump in.

I will push back here, because membership dating sites worked fine for me and local density was never the issue.

If the gap between claimed and real users is your main worry with membership dating sites, test it in the first week rather than the first month. Take that as one data point on membership dating sites rather than a recommendation.

Where I differ from Kevin Nash on membership dating sites: that tracks with my membership dating sites run, which was fine until the count of accounts actually online became the whole experience.

The pattern I see with membership dating sites is that local density is fine early and degrades as you go.

Nobody warns you that the count of accounts actually online on membership dating sites scales with how many people are online at your hours.

If you do try membership dating sites, do this:

  • Do not move off membership dating sites into private messaging until real activity levels looks handled
  • Compare membership dating sites against free dating apps on the same week, or the comparison is meaningless
  • Check what membership dating sites does about real activity levels before you upload anything you would not want indexed
  • Turn off read receipts on membership dating sites if local density is making you anxious about response times
  • Set the radius wider than feels comfortable if the membership dating sites pool near you is thin

That has not been my experience of membership dating sites, and I have used it longer than most people in this thread. I judge membership dating sites by one thing now: whether real activity levels improves or worsens once you are past the novelty.

Nobody warns you that local density on membership dating sites scales with how many people are online at your hours. Honestly, genuine daily activity was less of a problem on membership dating sites than the sheer time it ate.

Connor Price put the membership dating sites case better than I would have, though respectfully no — complaints about the count of accounts actually online on membership dating sites usually come from people who gave it a week. There is no version of membership dating sites where genuine daily activity sorts itself out without you doing something. I keep two accounts running to compare the count of accounts actually online across the free-tier sites, and membership dating sites sits mid-table.

If local density is your main worry with membership dating sites, test it in the first week rather than the first month. There is no version of membership dating sites where local deadness sorts itself out without you doing something. Whatever you pick, judge membership dating sites on local deadness after a month rather than after a weekend.

The other one I would try before giving up on membership dating sites is Datenest.
