NoStringsAttached

This casual dating site is for those looking, as the name implies, for hook-ups with "no commitment". They have members primarily in the US, though it is open to anyone regardless of their location.

Is NoStringsAttached a scam or legit?

NoStringsAttached is part of the Friendfinder Network, one of the largest and most established dating networks on the web. While the site does encourage users to purchase additional features (also known as "upselling"), members are always in control of choosing what they want. NoStringsAttached is one of the largest and longest running dating websites of its kind.

However, some users have found difficulty finding other members near them. If you're concerned about a lack of members, it may be worth opting for a more popular site like AshleyMadison.

Getting Started

NoStringsAttached has an intuitive layout and set of features. The main problem you will find as a free member is that you can't view any profiles until you purchase a membership.

Although you can do searches, view thumbnail images and view people's basic details, you can't view full size pictures, read the profile section or watch videos.

The "Free" or Teaser account as it should be called will only give you a preview of the site, after which you can decide whether it's worth upgrading.

Community

The site launched in 2010; yet it has around 137,000 active users. Compared to other Adult dating sites it does have a fairly good mix of male/female members.

As well as no commitment relationships, it also serves those looking for extra-marital activity. Anyone who's in an existing relationship but is looking for some fun on the side will be at home here.

Other Features

To that end, it offers a whole host of privacy features to make it easy to keep your identity a secret. Secure calling is available allowing you to talk to other people without revealing their personal numbers.

Being part of the Friendfinder network means there are a lot of features - including adult activities and very strong content. You can flirt with potential matches and view webcam shows and videos.

Basic searches are allowed with a free account, as are hot-listing and sending flirts - almost all other activities require upgrading to a VIP subscription. The advanced search, accessible to VIP members, gives you a host of other things you can filter on including appearance, body type and distance - it also lets you hide profiles with no photos.

The private network is where you can exchange private photos and videos with other members. This is by invitation only.

The VIP membership is available for 1, 3 and 12 months. The 12 month subscription works out the cheapest and in addition you get an extra 6 months thrown in.

In addition, other features such as viewing web-cams will require the purchase of credits.

"Open the Door" costs a few extra dollars but choosing this option means that anyone on the site, including non paying members, can contact you. This gives you first shot at contacting newer members.
