Dating Direct Affinity is the sister site of Dating Direct, and part of a network of top class sites that also contains Match.com and Match Affinity. Developed through collaboration with leading researchers in the field of relationship science, the Dating Direct Affinity system represents the pinnacle of scientific knowledge in this field. Dating Direct Affinity prides itself on having an excellent record in matching single people across the world, proven by the millions of past users who are now enjoying life with their ideal match. At the outset, it’s important to note that membership of Direct Dating Affinity is separate and distinct from membership of Dating Direct, and users of either site cannot make use of the features of the other. Whilst this is understandable from a revenue perspective, it is a shame that users of Dating Direct Affinity can’t also log on to Dating Direct and make a direct search for potential matches there, too.
Unlike most other dating sites (with a couple of exceptions within this category), DatingDirectAffinity.com doesn't allow you to browse and read members' profiles for yourself. Instead, users are limited to only contacting members found for them based on an intensive questionnaire that is completed when joining the site. This initial questionnaire contains hundreds of multiple-choice questions designed to analyze your wants and needs and determine a personality profile for you. The lack of search function is disappointing – although the primary function of any online matchmaking site should be that members are matched according to a test, questionnaire or algorithm, we do think it’s important that users are also free to search for themselves.
Whilst the profiling questionnaire featured on Direct Dating Affinity is excellent, containing a wide variety of question styles that help to keep the questionnaire engaging and interesting despite its length, there are a few issues of concern surrounding membership of Direct Dating Affinity that we need to include here. Customer reviews and comments for the site suggest that it may have a few problems with dealing with customer complaints and that there have been numerous issues with billing that have not yet been properly dealt with. Some customers also complain about overall poor service and claim that the site appears to host a number of dead or fake profiles that boost the number of potential matches and make the site appear more popular and successful than it actually is. Similarly, the worldwide customer base supporting Dating Direct Affinity is not as large as that boasted by other sites within this category, and this should undoubtedly have an impact on a potential subscriber’s interest in the site as a whole.
Dating Direct Affinity could be considered as a no-frills online matchmaking site. Whilst the site still boasts a number of great features and is by no means a cheap site (costing, at its cheapest £14 a month or more), compared to other sites in this category (that often cost around $50 a month) this site is certainly a cheaper alternative. Similarly, the site does not contain any of the premium features associated with more expensive sites, such as video dating tools. That’s not to say that Dating Direct Affinity is a bad choice – millions of singles have entrusted their search for love to this site and have not been disappointed.
