Site Review: Age Match

31 March 2009 761 views No Comment

agematchThis is a matchmaking site that specializes in the May-December romance.  They refer to this niche as the “age gap relationship.”  The “age gap relationship” is hardly a new thing and it is not a rare coupling.  We see it a lot in this day and age.

After doing some casual clicking on this site, I was very excited to see that in their Help/FAQ section they actually list the pricing of the Gold Membership.  ALL matchmaking sites should make their prices available BEFORE a person becomes a member.

Signing up for the site will take you a few minutes.  It’s not really tedious, though.  The requirements are only meant to enrich your experience as a user and to ensure that your matches will be what you’re looking for.

Even though I was giddy from the fact that this site lists it’s prices to non-members, I have to admit that this site is a teeny bit pricey.  Of course, where you money goes is entirely up to you.  Pricing for the Gold Membership breaks down as follows:

1 Month- $29.95

3 Months- $59.95

6 Months- $95.95

12 Months- $143.95



You can earn a free Gold Membership for small amounts of time by working with the site on networking, stopping scammers, blogging, inviting friends, and sharing tips.  While this is a neat perk, it makes me question the competence of the administrators.  I mean, this place charges a pretty penny for a Gold Membership but they will give you small tastes of Gold for basically doing their jobs.  It’s odd.

The bright sit to this is that you are able to do basic member searches and receive emails and instant messages from other members.  It’s still a really restrictive membership, but you can still at least search.

One really neat feature this this site offer is a place for age gap blogs.  If you’re interested in reading or starting an age gap blog, this would be a good place to look.

In the end, I’m kind of lukewarm about this site.  It’s not exciting.  It does, however, offer a niche experience that some might find worth the money.  It’s your choice, but choose wisely.  You can do better.
