With more and more websites trying to grab you and help you find love, where do you go? There are millions of dating websites, but not all are right for you. Here are some of the best dating websites, with information such as pricing, amount of members, and vital information you need to find your love.

Matchmaker.com has a monthly rate anywhere from about $8 to $20. There are eight million members and was recently named Best Online Dating Service by Forbes magazine. What makes Matchmaker so great? This website is very user friendly and they offer the most in-depth profiles on the internet. They start with a questionnaire which is then followed by an essay. They get the most information to ensure the best matches possible. They also have a feature that allows you to keep track how many times your profile has been viewed.

Coming in second place in terms of members, Yahoo Personals lists over 5 million. From $8 to $20 memberships like Matchmaker.com, Yahoo Personals include detailed profiles, and because of their search engines, you can focus on many choice factors, such as age, geographical location, and similar likes as well. Here you will find a multitude of other singles searching for love like you.

Still around the same price range, you can check out Dream Dates, from $9 to $25 monthly rates. Instead of messaging, this website with four million users, lets you talk with others. Of course, chat options for communicating, along with email, and IM are also available. Memberships for romance are standard, whereas Erotica is an additional option available.

The option of anonymity is a strong draw for those wishing to avoid those they do not have interest in, while private interaction can be had with the person or persons you might find yourself attracted to. 10 million users strong, at slightly higher rates of $16 to $25, American Singles stands. You can arrange your given list of matching profiles promptly sent to you via the website by any number of interests.

With a monthly rate of $11 to $25, my personal favorite, Match, has members totaling over 15 million strong. By typing what you are searching for, this is definitely the easiest website to use, because there are only two communication modes. You get an instant match based on what you specify. Another feature of this easy-to-use website is the comparison view of side by side matches, something that comes in handy when trying to decide on the potential love for you.

Lastly, a site that allows you to select different websites for the dating pursuit, Cupid’s Review must be mentioned. Providing information about dating sites, rather than membership of potential dates, this can be a good place to begin your search, and help you in the process of deciding on a website to start with. Providing pricing information, a category of niches, and even a scoring point feature of up to 100, it gives numerous websites that help you find your own particular need more easily, whether that need be based on particulars, lifestyle type, location, or backgrounds. It doesn’t hurt either that it’s so easy to use.

So what websites are the best? I would say Match.com is my favorite, but there can be no wrong answer. Try more than one to get a good feel for what you want and what you like. Good luck!
