Look and Feel
Look and feel of the site is nice with multicolor. The background of the site is white; at the top you will see a login box for the existing members. Just below that is a purple colored portion on which you can see blue and light purple colored bubbles. At the front there is a blue colored box on which you can see a couple featured and on their extreme left there is a join now box.
At the bottom right side you can see the recent articles on free online dating and some articles on free online dating sites in USA.
There are many Google advertisements on the site and also some featured ‘hot members’ picks of the other free dating sites and social dating sites.
Registration Process
Registration process is very easy, quick and hassle free. First you have to give some basic information like gender, birth date, country, state, username, password and your email. Then you have to edit and create your profile. In this step you have to give a profile headline, basics like date of birth, race and gender. Then you have to give your body type, appearance, eye color, hair color, hair length, children, smoking and sexual orientation. Then you need to tell others about who you are your pastimes, interests and life. You need to fill this before you can start messaging other members. You have to also give a brief description about the match that you are looking for. Now give your country, state, suburb, street and email to contact you. Now you are all set to go with sixsingles.com.
Login & Customizing Profiles
Existing users can login to the site by giving your username and password. First time users can save their time as you do not have to go back for login and you are automatically logged in to the site after completing the registration process. As you login you can see a nicely placed user menu placed at the top.
Customization is simple and you can edit your profile, view preview profile and also if for any reason you want to put your profile on hold or hide it from other members, you can enable or disable your profile.
Photo Profile Section
Photos can be uploaded from your computer itself. Once your photo has been uploaded you will be able to select whether the image will be your profile shot, a part of your public gallery or require VIP access for others to see it.
The site however does not specify that how many pictures can be uploaded in to your gallery. Also there are not any strict rules for photo upload, may be they are in the terms and conditions of the site. You cannot be able to view your pictures uploaded in your profile as they will be under approval system.
The site does not allow any photo importing facility from other social networking sites like orkut or facebook.
Browse & Search Feature
Browsing and searching through the site is free. The website features some hottest members on your homepage. You can also make other searches like,
Quick search: This is the simple search and you have to just give your seeking partner’s gender, their age range, last online status, country and state of the person.
Advanced search: The other search that you can have is advanced search which allows you to search your match based on other criteria. You can make this search by giving the body type, smoking preference, sexual orientation, appearance, children, eye color, hair color and hair length of your partner.
The site does not have other searching options like keyword search or username search.
Messaging
Messaging is a very important feature of any free dating site. Users will get little bit disappointed to know that this feature is not designed nicely on sixsingles.com.
The online dating site allows you to send only text mails to the members.
The site needs to think on developing and improving this section so that you can send winks, virtual kisses, gifts and flirts to the members. I have also not seen any chat option on the site.
How Much it Costs
This is amongst the free online dating sites and you do not have to spend anything for making a good search for your partner.
Other Features
There are not many features on the site, just you can view the ‘My list’ section which displays the members that are in your hot list, private list, private list access and blocked list. You can also view the members who have viewed you.
Member Base
The website has got a good number of member base. I found many members that belong to USA, California and other countries. Members mostly range in the age group of 30’s to 40’s.
Longevity
As I have spent only few hours on the site I cannot comment on the effectiveness and efficiency of the site. But according to my searches I think that I will get an enough response from the members.
Ranking Statistics
Taking a look at the statistical data of the last one year you can see that the site has a tremendous increase in the visitors list. In March 2010 the site has got only 1, 043 visitors which has increased to 11, 985 in March 2011. So the website has seen more than 100% increases from last one year.
The site also enjoys a Google web ranking of 78, 136.
Conclusion
Sixsingles.com is another 100% free dating site which allows free searching for your date and partner.
The look and feel of the website is nice. The site has used many colors like blue, purple, yellow and white. But the overall look is nice and gives a cooling effect to the eyes.
Registration process is very easy and quick. You need to give your basic information and then complete your profile. Profile completion step is also easy and mostly asks the same things that are generally asked by dating sites.
Login needs your username and password; new users get automatically logged in after registration.
Regarding customization, here you can edit your profile and make it hidden or private access.
Photos can be uploaded from computer only. The site however does not specify the number of pictures that could be uploaded in your profile. The site also did not give the facility of cropping and editing pictures.
Browsing and searching is free but there are not many options of searches. Just you can perform quick and advanced searches.
Messaging feature is also not crafted well. You can only send text messages for free but the site does not have facility like sending of winks, gifts, kisses etc. the site should need to think on adding these features.
There are not many features available on the website.
Member base is good enough to search for the matches. The site has seen a great increase in its visitors list.
But I didn’t understand why the site has added six in its name. Still if you are just searching for a partner for free and does not want to spend much on it then you can simply try this site. Don’t forget the site name is sixsingles.com
