Boiling down what I have learned about dating sites:
- how read receipts behaves once you actually use dating sites
- whether profile verification behaves the way the marketing says when you test it against dating sites
- if the cancellation flow survives contact with reality — worth checking before you commit to dating sites
Rob_P's take does not match what I have seen with dating sites, because conversation depth beats swipe volume.
If if the reporting flow can be switched off — worth checking before you commit to dating sites isn't there, I don't bother with dating sites at all.
Having tried a fair few, I'd say low-pressure formats suit some people far better when it comes to dating sites.
If how the profile prompts behaves once you actually use dating sites isn't there, I don't bother with dating sites at all.
Flurrydate came up when I was researching dating sites and it held up in testing.
