Though Facebook does not promote itself as a dating site, tens of thousands of happy couples first met on Facebook. How does it work? Well, as you may know, Facebook is the most popular social networking site on the planet. At last count, they have over four-hundred million members in 180 countries.
And when each of these members signed up for an account, they were asked to enter their relationship status. Members can describe themselves at married, single, or single and looking. As you might imagine, the last designation is pretty much a tacit invitation to other single Facebook members to contact them.
But how do you locate someone you are interested in? With hundreds of millions of members, how is that possible? Well, the easiest way to find other interested singles it to search the network for suggested friends. The program will take into account your age, relationship status, location as well as interests. More often than not, it will return an impressive list of profiles for your perusal. Once you find someone you are interested in, send a friend request and if it is accepted, you can start conversing immediately. There are also Facebook date apps .
While using regular search options to locate other singles is still the most popular way to meet on the network, Facebook dating apps are gaining in popularity. The reason for this is simple: they are much easier to use and they provide better, more compatible matches.
The most popular dating app we reviewed already has over 20 million users. That is not bad considering that there are only about 70 million people who choose single and looking for their relationship status.
