The only reason they point out the statistics about their members is because a lot of people who are new to online dating are scared that no one of quality and substance ever signs up. The site also requires that you fill out a complete personality profile and all of your profile information BEFORE they give you access to the matches.
While this might seem frustrating to some of you, it should come as a welcomed sign. The sign-up process takes about minutes depending on how quick or slow you are with answering multiple choice questions about yourself. When we signed up to complete our Elite Singles review, we had to answer well over personality questions during the personality test.
The good news is these are almost all multiple choice with very few that require any sort of text answer. The few multiple choice questions that they require have no text limits or requirements that make you have to write a novel about yourself right off the bat.
Why should this be a welcomed sign? It means that anyone that makes it through to the matches is most likely going to be serious. This means they are going to be WAY less likely to flake on you or just abandon their account for no reason. The bottom line here is the quality of matches on this site is high, and the influx of people is even higher. For that, our Elite Singles review gives the site five stars for quality of matches.
Regarding ease of use during our Elite Singles review, we found the site to be pretty good. The sign-up process was very simple. It was straightforward and easy to navigate.
They even give you a percentage indicator to let you know how far along you are in it. If you get sidetracked during the process, you can also always save and come back later when you have more time. A straightforward sign-up process is always a plus for us and sadly something that a lot of online dating sites miss the boat on.
Keep in mind that you will need to complete the sign-up process before you get to see any of the matches. Again, this may be a turn-off to some people, but it really should be regarded as a positive. There is nothing more annoying than searching through an online dating site that is stuffed full of empty and incomplete profiles.
When you finish your sign-up process, it will seem as if your only option is to make a paid account. With a little digging, we realized that this was not true. If you click on the very top right of the page, there will be a button that will allow you to get through to the member area and start looking around. Regarding navigating Elite Singles dashboard area, things were straightforward, easy to use, and we like that.
Something that was interesting about this site is that even though there was a search function listed at the top, it did not operate as a traditional search function.
What we realized was they did a lot of the matchmaking for you. This feature is either going to be a positive or a negative based on your personal preferences. Elite Singles has some really neat features to help you find that special someone.
First, they have their traditional matches section. This is where they take your search criteria and give you a nice batch of matches that they think would be a good fit for you. Within this area, you can sort your matches by the following criteria:. One of the first places we like to look with a new site is the search function. During our Elite Singles review, we were unable to locate a traditional search function.
Instead of having you sort through millions of matches, they try and help make things a little more personal for you. Where it differs greatly from Tinder is that it shows you a ton of information about the person as well. But before we get into it, a little background….

Elite Singles is relatively unique in that it requires new members to take a personality test before they are allowed to begin messaging other people.
The personality test has a total of questions. The questionnaire took me roughly 20 minutes to complete. This is a bit disingenuous, as there are no suggestions that this is a paid website on the Elite Singles homepage, nor before you are prompted to take this lengthy test. This is based mostly on your compatibility score, generated by comparing your personality test results to hers.
However, the Elite Singles algorithm will also consider your search preferences, which you can alter at any time. See the screenshot below. This could be considered a good thing, as it prevents the best women from being overwhelmed with messages. These women have narrowly missed out on being a match. However, you are able to send unlimited messages to these women.
I was continuously matched with high-quality women every day throughout the testing process — and this remains the case more than a month later.
I decided to cancel my automatic renewal and the next day, my profile was I received an e-mail telling me I'll be refunded for the rest of the time, but never received the refund. Very nice, I have nothing more to say, but think twice before paying this site.
