How Much Does It Cost

But for singles who are serious about meeting a partner for life, there is no better site to join, although eHarmony does have the edge when it comes to their awesome match making system.

Match.com Review

Match.com was the world’s first online dating site established way back now in 1995, so they have had a little time to create the best possible online dating experience, but have they managed to achieve this? In short, YES. Whenever I find myself single Match.com is my first port of call, and it usually does not take very long before I’m taking my profile down again.

So what is it that makes Match.com such a brilliant dating site? The site itself is very easy to navigate on either a desktop or a mobile device, and so it should be! But the millions of real members are really what makes it stand out, and the amount of effort that Match puts in to ensuring the site is free from fakes and scammers. The fact that Match is also a paid dating site also helps to attract singles who are more serious about meeting a partner rather than just having a quick fling. But despite being a paid dating site, the membership prices are very reasonable.

In short, if you don’t have a profile on Match.com, you are seriously missing out!

How Long to Join For?

In America and Canada there is a membership option for 24 months! But honestly this is ridiculous!! I always recommend to join for at least 6 months, this gives you plenty of time to find your perfect match, and the cost is also much more reasonable. The one month memberships are far too short, but also far too expensive.

Turn Off the Auto-renewal Feature

As with the vast majority of subscription based services unless you turn off the automatic renewal, your membership will be automatically renewed when your chosen subscription period ends. And if you have already found your match, then I’m sure would rather be spending this money on them than extending your online dating membership, I would hope so anyway!

So are you sure that you are ready to put your singleton days behind you and start sharing your bed with someone other than the car, dog or teddy bear?

Basic Membership or the Total Connect Plan?

When you take out a paid subscription with eHarmony you’ll find out that they offer two different membership plans. The least expensive eHarmony cost option is called the basic membership plan, and the slightly more expensive eHarmony cost option is called the total connect membership plan. The prices above are for the basic plan, the total connect plan costs a few dollars or pounds more per month, but it’s really not worth it.

The below table shows the main differences between the two plans:
eHarmony Basic Vs Total Connect Plan

As you can see, paying a little extra only entitles you to phone your matches without revealing your number, and a deeper analysis of your personality. But when you can make use of both Skype and Google Talk for making anonymous phone calls, we really don’t believe that it’s worth the extra cost just for a cheesy deeper analysis of your own personality.

The money you save could then be spent on your first date. As if you do join eHarmony, it’s unlikely to take all that long before you have a date lined up.

Please Be Aware of Automatic Renewals

As you may or may not be aware, all dating sites as well as many other subscription based services like to make use of automatic subscription renewals; and eHarmony is no different. They will automatically extend your subscription 24 hours before it is due to expire. So if you have taken out a 6 month subscription, it would be automatically renewed for a further 6 months unless you disable automatic renewals. We recommend that you turn this off as soon as possible, many people forget until they receive their bank statement, but then unfortunately it’s too late.

Is eHarmony Worth It?

If you are looking for love and someone with whom you can share your life with, then yes it’s most definitely with it. After all, you can’t really put a price tag on love, if you find your soulmate, then they are practically priceless. eHarmony also offers one of the largest membership pools of single adults in the world, and their compatibility matching system is second to none, and provides the ultimate helping hand to ensure you are matched with someone that you are almost guaranteed to click with.

How Long Should I Join For?

At least six months. It takes time and effort to find someone special, unless you are incredibly lucky, or blessed with good looks. The six month and 12 month subscription options also offer the best value. Just whatever you do, don’t pinch pennies by joining for a single month, it’s far too expensive and it will most likely be money down the drain.
