Here's an interesting twist from eHarmony,

eHarmony Marriage

This online service is almost a year old and is designed to help couples achieve stronger, healthier and happier marriages. It is built around the idea of marriage wellness, every marriage needs a small amount of ongoing care to thrive and grow. Underscoring its commitment to building happy and lasting relationships, this marriage wellness service helps marriages flourish by empowering couples with the knowledge and tools to build a deepened sense of understanding, appreciation and connectedness.

There are a couple of programs to choose from. The first one called Couple Marriage Profile offers a customized marriage report based on a questionnaire you fill out as well as a positive, non critical assessment on how to improve your marriage. The second program called Couple Marriage Complete offers more, such as a guide book and online videos. There is a free trial and eHarmony does offer a 30 day money back guarantee if you don't see any improvements.

I haven't tried these programs so I can't personally recommend them but eHarmony has helped countless singles in the online world so I am sure they are on the right track with eHarmony Marriage. You can get more information on this service at eHarmony Marriage. For more information on eHarmony Dating see are eHarmony Review.

Wow, Christmas went fast this year. I'm sure most of you are out shopping today for all those boxing day specials.

This time of year is the busy season for the online dating services since Valentines Day is just a month and a few weeks a way. You will probably start seeing a few more TV ads for singles starting after the new year. The dating services should also be offering a fair number of good promotions this year since competition has been fierce for the singles dating dollar. As soon as we find some new promotions and, get our hands on some coupon codes I will post them.

Happy Holidays!

Yahoo! Personals has a new feature called Quick View. This features main goal is to allow users to scan potential matches faster. Instead of the standard profile view, members can select from 15 different date makers or breakers. These trait types include, age, alcohol, smokers, etc.., you are allowed to choose up to 8. The quick view box is located just below the photo of the single person in the main profile view. When viewing the profile this allows members to easily see if there are any deal breakers or makers, instead of having to spend the time looking through the profile details for all of the required information.

You can find more information in our Yahoo! Personals Review (Personals.Yahoo.com).

Are latest poll:

Dating Site Poll How often do you log into an online dating site?

has some interesting results. At the time of this news story over 100 people had voted and almost half (50 singles, 49.16%) say that they login to their dating site at least once a day. From here, the dating poll results steadily declines until the last answer, "Once every couple of weeks". This answer gathered 20.75% of the vote.

So what does this all mean? To me this is good news, it looks like most people who are actively using online dating services do login daily, most likely check for mail or to look for new matches. So remember, keep your profile updated and if your unsure about sending mail to someone on a dating site, go ahead, there is a good chance they may respond.

A new dating category called UK Dating has just been added to Dating Sites Reviews. This online dating site category offers reviews for singles living in Wales, England, Scotland and Northern Ireland. More dating service reviews are coming soon for this category.
