What is online dating and how does it work?
Print
Online dating allows you to search a database of registered individuals on a dating website and find someone you would like to get to know. Once you have found someone who you are attracted to or have common interests with, it is time to make contact with them. Online dating is usually conducted via a dedicated website, like www.completelyfreedating.co.uk, but can also be done via social networking sites like www.myspace.com or via newsgroups and forums. It is quiet simple to use, firstly you need to join so visit the 'How do I join?' page to find out how.
