Dating on Internet seems easy and fun. However, a newbie into dating online may end up mired in confusion and dismal failures. This is due to lack of understanding the media.

First step is to get familiar with the dating scenario on the net i.e. get familiar with the plethora of dating sites or matchmaking services. You have to judge what is good for you for all that a dating site promises it may not deliver.
Judge a dating site form its history i.e. how long it has been on the net. Is it a stable service provider or is he going to vanish over night? Know about the providers.

Wrong sites will have inactive personals and will sell your personal information including email and even hack your credit card. (Read between the lines in agreement while signing).
Judge a site from what it offers whether the locale and personals fit your profile. Is it a site for gay lesbians or seniors? Whatever your need is choose the site accordingly.
Do not be lured by free services these are the ones who will bundle out sooner or later due to financial failures. Best services are which allow free registration and ask payment for advance functions like messaging, online chat, and webcams etc. In these sites, you have a chance to surf the site and become aware of its status and quality of service before subscribing.
Always register with or username and profile visible but your real name and contact details: emails, address and phone numbers are to be disclosed only to the person whom you have come to trust and plain to meet for furthering your relationship.
