| What
Dating Direct say about themselves
Dating Direct first went online in 1999 and is now the UK's largest
dating service with more than 3.5 million active members, each of
whom has a detailed personal profile on the website.
Our Dating Direct Review
DatingDirect is a online dating site based in the UK but does have
Worldwide membership. You can choose from an extensive list of Countries
to search but the majority of profiles are in the UK, Australia,
Canada, Ireland and USA. it is the largest UK dating site and the
profiles cover all regions, professions and walks of life. Since
Dating Direct and Meetic joined forces in the UK the site has become
very large indeed but still retains its professional, slick performance.
In fact the Meetic style has enhanced the user experience a lot.
Signing Up to DatingDirect
For privacy reasons you have to sign up for a free membership on
Dating Direct before you can run a search or view any profiles.
The sign up on DatingDirect is very simple with general questions
about yourself like hair, eye colour and other characteristics.
You do not have to complete your profile straight away, the profiles
are very full and can take some time and effort to fill in fully
so its nice to have a look around the site first. The profiles are
split into sections , My Profile , My Lifestyle, A few words about
me and also sections on what you are looking for in a partner. This
makes interesting reading when you are browsing other members pages.
Once you have become a free member on DatingDirect you can browse
all profiles, add details and photos to your own profile but you
cannot communicate with other members in any way.
First impressions when you become a full member of DatingDirect
is how simple everything is to use. The DatingDirect site has been
designed to offer quite a few features but remain very easy to use
and fast loading. Everything you need to communicate, search, see
who has winked, emailed or viewed you is easily accessible from
your own profile page. There are all the standard features you would
expect from a large long established dating site with a few extras
thrown in for good measure.

DatingDirect Conclusion
If your looking for a site with a huge UK database
and simplicity Dating Direct is for you. It is not overloaded with
unnecessary features or clutter but it has everything to make communication
easy and pleasurable. This site is designed to do its job and a
little bit more without fuss. There is no real free basic membership
because once you have submitted your profile you cannot really do
anything but a basic search until you have selected a premier membership.
this is pretty standard though for quality dating sites and the
short trial memberships are a great way to try out the site. We
definitely gave usability the thumbs up on this one though and we
loved the massive choice of profiles to view.
