DatingDirect.com - Straight Dating
(Which Way To Date - 27/8/2008)
Claiming to be the UK's largest and number one dating website, it is very quick to sign up and get going. Registration is free and takes just a few minutes of your time, with your profile being very simple to construct with the aid of drop-down menus for you to swiftly select from.
 
But what do you get included in the free registration? You can create your profile, use the standard search tools and wink at another member… Not that much, but you will get a reasonably good initial feel of the website. To enjoy the site in full, for a monthly fee, you can have access to email, messenger and video calling via webcam, view full profiles of members including video introductions, view their personal photo albums and create and save your searches.
 
The monthly subscription fees vary depending on how long you decide to subscribe for. If you want to try it out for just a month it's £22.80. For a three-month Premier Pass you'll be paying £14.99 a month (invoiced in one payment of £44.97) or for a six-month Premier Pass the price is reduced to £9.99 a month (invoiced in one payment of £59.94).
 
The website itself has all information clearly set out in a logical layout making it superbly user-friendly. They haven't splattered lots of flashing banners everywhere or enabled pop-ups, so there's little distraction allowing it to keep its tone of simplicity and allowing you to keep your focus on finding the right date.
