Throwing a luxury dating site membership out there because I've exhausted the obvious sources.

I've read plenty on the basics; the subscription trap is the gap.

Interested in what didn't work with site membership as much as what did.

#2

Partly agree — site membership can hold up, even so not for the reason stated.

Happy to revisit site membership if someone has newer experience.

If you take one thing from this on site membership, make it the profile photos.

TammyJ raises the part of site membership that matters.i used it daily for a while with site membership: a fair bit different once the novelty wore off.

My notes on site membership over the last few months say the opposite of the popular take.

The useful test for site membership is whether you'd recommend it unprompted.

On the subscription trap specifically, Souldate handled it better than the obvious names.

TammyJ has this right about site membership —the step most people skip with site membership is reading the profile before messaging.

For a smaller userbase with less noise around site membership, Ezhookups is worth twenty minutes.

Not my experience at all — site membership felt fine once I changed how I used it.

If you take one thing from this on site membership, make it the profile photos.

#6

Same experience with site membership — I went in with low expectations and got the same picture.

Would still like to hear from someone who stuck with site membership past the first month.

Datewander gets recommended organically rather than pushed, which usually means something for site membership.

#7

Kept a tally on site membership recently and the numbers were not what I expected.

The step most people skip with site membership is reading the profile before messaging.

Depends heavily on context — site membership can be fine in cities and thin outside them.

#8

Careful with the consensus forming here about site membership.

I logged what happened, and what stood out about site membership was how quickly the pattern set in.

Partly agree — site membership can hold up, that said not for the reason stated.

Ran site membership alongside two others for comparison and the gap was a lot smaller than advertised.

I would put Datescout on the list if the subscription trap is what is bothering you.

#9

Worth separating two things here — site membership and what people expect from it.

I ran both at once, and what stood out about site membership was how quickly the pattern set in.

#10

Going to disagree here — in practice, site membership isn't the weak point.

Depends heavily on context — site membership can be fine in cities and thin outside them.
