2008 Dating Sites Reviews Choice Awards - Christian

Recipient
ChristianCafe.com

This years Editor's Top Pick - Christian Award goes to ChrsitianCafe.com. We first reviewed this site in late November 2007 and we liked what we saw. At that time, the review was still considered too new to be included for consideration in the 2007 awards. This year is a different story and the Christian Cafe dating service (which members have shorten to CC) has only improved their service.

This Christian-owned-and-operated dating site is popular in the United States, Canada and has gathered a strong following in the United Kingdom and Australia. I really like how Christian Cafe is run. One of the things I really approve of is when you sign up as a free member you get 10 days of full access to the dating site (except chat rooms). This means you can send/receive emails and send instant messages to members online. All this is done without giving them your credit card. You can't get a much better free membership when trying out a dating service. Most dating sites allow searching and viewing of profiles for free but no real communication. The other thing you will notice is, there is very little advertising on this site. Most dating sites have online ads posted through out their site. The funny things is, these ads are usually asking members to join some other dating service (I always wonder why they advertise their competitors?).

This online dating site is filled with active Christian singles who are easy to find. Just type in your postal/zip code and select the distance potential matches must live within. Every profile lists when the member was last on and you can even search by this attribute. Unlike other dating sites ChristianCafe.com does not pad their membership numbers. If a member hasn't logged in within 90 days the profile is flagged inactive and will not appear in search results. It is also easy to see how many new members join every week. The number appears at the top of the page by the menu bar, which you can click to view and interact with the new member list.

There are bigger general oriented dating sites out there but, none have the quality and quantity of active Christian members as ChristianCafe.com does.
