Friendfinder

When I joined FriendFinder I was not extremely happy with the options that I got as a free member. I was not able to message anyone in an unlimited manner, I could not link with anyone in the chat rooms, and there was a limited photo views that I was allowed (with no video views at all).

However, I was pleasantly surprised with the upgrade options that were available to me including two different levels; silver and gold. The silver membership is the less expensive (by about 35%) option but you will experience slower technical support response and fewer searching options. However, the silver membership is great way to go if you are still not sure about the site and don't want to pay full price.

With the upgraded membership comes access to all chat rooms/chat features, live webcam/messenger features, full access to member’s photos/videos, be able to initiate contact (unlimited tools like flirting and e-mailing), and a variety of special interest forums and relationship advice tools. Furthermore, it includes blogs, friend networking and interest groups.

Overall, FriendFinder.com not only gives its members the opportunity to meet friends and partners, it also enhances the member experience with daily horoscopes, photo ratings, free e-greeting cards, and the interactive FriendFinder Magazine written by and for its members. The magazine includes member-submitted articles and poetry, as well as a question and answer advice forum.
