Where can I find free local dating sites?

When you're single and flat-out sick & tired of the club scene, shy or just want to try something new, where do you go to mix & mingle and quite possibly meet that special someone? Well online dating has sparked exciting relationships for lots of people and it is gaining in popularity; Everybody's doing it -- and it could possibly work for you too. However there is one thing to consider though... online dating cost money (typically between $30 to $80 a month or more!) ...another dreaded BILL )-:

Let's face it... no one needs another monthly bill just to possibly meet someone...especially in this economy. If you have that type of money then great do as you please, but a lot of people don't. In this hub you'll find a hard-to-compile list of Completely Free Online Dating Sites. These are not teaser sites where they just say they're free but really not. These are 100% free online dating websites that you can explore without a penny out of your pocket.

The way these completely free online dating sites stay in business is that most are advertiser supported, or sponsored by larger companies in order to keep expenses away from members. Appreciate these free local dating sites, because they could be hitting you with high costs like all the rest ~ but they're not.

The above list will expand if I find any more Completely Free Online Dating Sites worth mentioning. Also if you know of any other good free dating sites, feel free to add to this page by listing it in the comment section below.

This hub was inspired by my comment on pgrundy's Confessions: Dating Online hub which is the perfect example of a Successful Online Dating Experience.

Online Dating Safety Tips: We're all adults here (or should be) so I'll be brief. Just like with offline dating, be selective with the person/people you ultimately decide to meet; meeting up in a public place with separate transportation initially until you feel totally comfortable is suggested. Either way you're gonna do what you want to do anyway but just be selective, sensible and careful. You can meet some quality people online, and we all know there's some crazies mixed in too.


Don't believe every profile you read: Some people have fake profiles on Completely Free Online Dating Sites. If someone's profile seems canned, and if they are persistent about getting you to communicate through your personal email (or instant messenger) too quick - instead of communicating with them through the dating site -- then they are probably just trying to pull an Internet scam or spam your email trying to sell you something. All I can say is use your best judgement and don't be too gullible.

A good summary of free sites there. Of course one advantage of a paid site is that if people are having to shell out their own hard money there is more chance of them being serious about finding someone.

www.cupidmarket.com is pretty good, and completely free, though they're new so not many members yet.
