What sets Date.com apart from other online dating sites?
Date.com studied the profile forms, questioning techniques and matching mechanisms of other sites. Date.com was not designed by system engineers. It is the work of relationship experts, psychologists and communications professionals. Date.com features a secret matching algorithm, which is as closely guarded a secret as the formula for Coca-Cola. Our matching algorithm takes into consideration basic human traits and the results of years of relationship research. Date.com’s goal is to create happy relationships. For example, our formula doesn't set up a pessimistic person with another pessimist. However, it doesn't mean that we will not provide the freedom to choose. We merely make recommendations for happy relationships. It is up to the individual to choose the one he/she likes.
