OKCupid.com Review Summary

Tired of going out with the hope of meeting someone special and getting nowhere? If you are, then you might want to consider using the internet and one site is Okcupid.com, a dating site with plenty to offer the single guy or gal. Reviewers of Okcupid.com like its quizzes and tests that help to match members with the right single person and they like the instant message feature. Okcupid.com is a “Quick and Free Way to Find Local Singles” and best of all, Okcupid.com is completely free to members. Some reviewers point out the possibility of meeting low quality singles and the fact that you must post two photos to use the instant message feature as two reasons to avoid Okcupid.com, but it is still a very good Dating Web Site overall and it is worth trying if you’re single and looking.

I love OkCupid.  It's incredibly interactive and conducive to not only meeting potential partners, but connecting to new friends.  I have developed some really close relationships with people, some who I've never met in person but keep in contact with the journaling feature, and some who have developed... review »

The best dating sites are the ones who have a niche.  I hate when one site tries to be all things to all people just because they want to attract more people.  Find a site that attracts similar type people.  Then, you won't need the pop quiz and million questions.  Surfing through a bunch of crap. ... review »

I've been a member of okcupid.com for several years and I have to say this is probably the only 'no pressure' dating website in existance. It's built more like a social community (myspace, facebook) and it allows you to make friends, take quizzes and other fun activities without even having dating as a priority.

I've met several friends on the site (including my best friend of 5 years) as well as found people for fun dates and an ex (things didn't work out but we're still friends!). About a year and a half ago when I moved to a new state, I also used it to make new friends in the area.

If you're...

This is by far the best dating site I have ever used.  Most sites just give you a basic rundown and then you get a bunch of guys asking you if you want to have sex.  I actually had fun using OkCupid.  They have lots of little quizes and tests you can take.  You also answer questions and based on your answers you are matched with other people on the site.  Not just superficial questions but interesting and insightful ones.

 After getting a divorce and getting back into the dating world I needed a site that wouldn't be intimidating.  This was it.  I met a great guy and while we are not together...

I actually found okcupid the day after eharmony tried to get me to pay to contact my matches. The things I like the most about okcupid are the questions you answer to get a match are completely optional and completely user-created.
It has a cool 'quiver' feature, which shows you three matches every day that the site recommends. you can eigther accept or decline to contact them from the quiver page, and then get new matches the next day.
the 'stalker' feature shows you the people that have visited your profile.
overall, I recommend okcupid to anyone looking for a relationship online. It's not against...

OKCupid has its rough spots, but that's the entry price for a website which provides a lot of interesting content (not just a large diverse set of users, but tests and journals). I know of several successful long term couples who met through the site, I've gone on many dates, made some real friends, and though the only relationship I formed through it just ended, I'm confident that I'll find another when it's time. As with much in life, what you get out is highly influenced by what you put in.

I checked out this dating website and found it to be like the rest of the free sites.  You must understand that there are a lot of charlatans out there and what they claim and what actually is are two different things.  I checked out some profiles and found the same listings on other sites, which is not bad but the guys for full of it and just a bunch of players,  Better off getting out in public and meeting people face to face than taking a chance or should I say risk on a website.

I accidentally stumbled across OKCupid last week and was immediately impressed...quick and free way to list myself and meet local singles...

Quickly messaged three people - two of who responded...one went to IM conversation...we shall see how it continues...

It's matching process is impressive - however I think buggy...

 Site seems to cater more to sex than long term relationships...

With any dating website, you get some people only wanting to talk for sex. However, OKCupid is actually, a lot cooler than any dating site I have joined thusfar! And thest part of all? It's 100% FREE!!!

There are many awesome things about this site: You take a Match Test, and the more questions you are, the more matches you recieve. You can IM someone, and there's no need to download a program! You have a blog you can write your feelings down in. There are a fairly good percentage of very nice people.

When you sign up, there's no confirmation link you have to watch out for. Once you've gone through...

I met my fiance on this site and I could not be happier! Real e-soulmates aren't just found on eHarmony! I love the matching algorithm that can tell you whether or not you would be a good fit with someone (like on Match.com or eHarmony) but completely free! The quizzes you can take are super fun and it's overall a pleasant experience (except when creepy people hit on you).

The site has so many great features such as instant messaging, email messaging, blogging, quickmatches, etc. Try it but be selective and don't settle for less than you deserve!

I feel like OKCupid's setup and style really attracts a lot of quirkier 20-somethings. It's a great way of meeting new people and it allows you to only be as involved as you choose (you can block users individually and based on particular criteria). If you want to make new friends in an area you just moved to, find people interested in the same things you are, or just meet someone new for coupling purposes it's a well set up website with a lot of possibilities.  You find common ground with people through quizzes and by answering questions about yourself that are far from your standard fare. ... review »

This review entry is merely to serve as a warning for all those single people out there. 

As with similar sites, many women members of OKCupid are not what they appear to be, some are prostitutes that are looking to extort money from unsuspecting wealthy men. 

I am very disappointed with the lack of response from their otherwise good concept of flagging individuals that are not what they claim to be.  Similar, when senior directors were contacted directly by email on a number of occasions about one female member that I know to be a high-class prostitute and extortionist, I received no response...

OKCupid is a much different dating environment than other sites.  The quizzes and tests make everything more interesting as well as the process of how you can match with other users.  There is no limiting like many dating sites and I have met not only great people to date there, but also cool new friends to hang out with.

I had to use this site and write a midterm on it with my partner. I created a profile for myself saw a big diverse group of men to choose from to talk to. I browsed some of other peoples profiles and they were not afraid to tell it like it is (mostly what they like to do in bed). But other than that the quizzes are fun though
