Editor's Verdict:

Meetic.co.uk was acquired by DatingDirect.com in 2007, making it a very powerful and accessible dating site. If you sign up for one, you can use your username and password for the other so you can sample both websites. Since both sites merged their database of members there are now many more members to interact with. Meetic has over 42,000 members, so there's definitely something out there for everyone!

The free membership offered is adequate to sample the site, but for those serious about online dating, it is definitely worth getting a Premier Pass. Prices are very reasonable and offer access to even more great features. Even better is the Find Love Guarantee which promises members their money back if they don't find love within 12 months. Therefore, you can be assured that you'll find someone special.

Meetic gives its users a chance to build a detailed personal page by offering a thorough profile builder. Not only can you write a Personal Ad, which is a general overview and what they're looking for, but you also get the opportunity to describe your character, physical appearance and lifestyle. Sharing this sort of personal information with other users should improve your chances of finding people with whom you've got things in common, and ultimately having fruitful dates.

We really liked the Perfect Match feature which allows users to describe exactly what they'd like to find on the site. By choosing what you look for in a partner, you're more likely to find them. You can also use your Perfect Match as the basis for a search which will help you even further in the quest to find love. On a similar theme, you can use the Your Test feature to ask potential dates any questions you may have. We thought this was great for those who were shy or didn't want to appear too forward, as you don't have to directly speak to other users, they just opt to answer your questionnaire.

Like most of the other dating websites, Meetic allows you to upload personal photos, there's even a Personal Photo Album to display a few of your favorite shots. This means users can view each others' photos which makes it even easier to find someone special.

Meetic, like other similar websites, helpfully provide both web and email alerts, notifying you if any other members look at your profile or send you messages. The web alerts are in pop-up form so that you miss nothing, and the emails comprehensively list all the contact which people have had with you, helping you keep track of people you may be interested in! If you're too shy or don't want to be forward in replying, you can send winks, which is a great ice-breaker! Meetic also alert you when you've received a wink so you'll always know if someone's interested!

These features have specific names. Firstly, My Lists allows you to keep track of all people you've had contact with, for example if you've sent them a wink, allowing users to monitor their contact properly. Secondly, My Contacts is where other users send contact requests. If you accept these contact requests, you'll be able to interact with each other. Thirdly, My Favorites is a personal list of contacts that you're really interested in. You can edit your favorites list at any time. As well as helping you keep in touch with people you're interested in and remain up-to-date with developments, these features also make the site easier to navigate.

To conclude, Meetic is a great, simple website with a huge base of members due to it's merger with DatingDirect. As both sites are similar in layout, and usernames and passwords work on both sites, users can easily switch between the two sites and then decide which one they prefer. The subscription fees are good value considering the extent of services that Meetic offer. In addition, there's the Find Love Guarantee which gives users extra confidence in online dating. Meetic, therefore, is an attractive dating website for anyone, whether an experienced online dater, or someone new to the game.
