Their regular member parties, held in various cities, are fantastic fun and give you the opportunity to meet loads of nice people in person rather than just online. If you are serious about meeting someone new I'd highly recommend checking this dating site out.

3.				match.com I first came across Match.com some time ago and it just keeps on getting better. Lots of good quality singles with photos and I loved the fact that you can include up to ten pictures on your profile. It is definitely one of the top 10 dating sites. Again, it's free to register so what do you have to lose?

5.				lavalife.com Lavalife is one of the largest online dating sites around, claiming to have 15 million members. I liked the choice of three categories Dating, Relationship or Intimate which allow you to decide what level of relationship you would like to search for. I was also impressed by the various ways in which you can communicate with other singles on the site including email, IM, video webcam, Lavalife by phone and Lavalife mobile.

6.				matchmaker.com Matchmaker has been around for a long time and is owned by Lycos so as you would expect it's a very well developed site. I found the registration process was quick and easy and I was soon searching through lots of picture personals in my area. A nice touch is being able to record a voice greeting.

7.				date.com Described as the community with millions of singles, date.com does not disappoint. Once you find someone you are interested in, simply click the show interest link and they will be informed of your interest. If they are interested in you then get chatting and see what happens! I also liked the community area featuring dating tips and a whole host of other interesting stuff.

8.				friendfinder.com Friend Finder is one of the best dating sites you will find. The registration procedure is clear and simple and once you have joined there are lots of interesting profiles to browse through, all with pictures. I quickly found many people I was interested in getting to know and I highly recommend you give it a try. It won't even cost you anything as it's free to join.

9.				simplyclicked.com Simply Clicked.com is a completely free online dating service. There are no catches - simply choose a username and start meeting and chatting to other interesting singles in your area straight away. It really is a breath of fresh air to find a good dating site that isn?t just trying to part you from your money! For this reason I have included Simply Clicked.com in the top ten sites in my list.

10.				adultfriendfinder.com If you are looking for something more intimate than just a date then you should check out Adult Friend Finder. Here you will find thousands of like minded adults with sexy photos, seeking affairs, discrete relationships and sexual encounters. Best of all it's free to register so what are you waiting for?

11.				blacksingles.com Specifically catering for people of color, blacksingles.com is an on-line community, not just another dating site. I was quickly able to search through the personal ads and find some good matches, with and without pictures.

12.				singlescrowd.com Singles Crowd is one of the biggest and best places to visit online. Featuring personalized and compatibility matching, a relationship analyst and also their "Chatterbox" instant messaging, it really is a fun place to check out singles in your area. I've met some lovely people here and I highly recommend you give it a try too.

13.				matchamerica.com As the name suggests, Match America caters for single people in the United States. I found it takes a little while to register and "get going" on this site but it was well worth the effort invested once I started browsing all the other great profiles.

14.				dreammatches.com Dream Matches is a 100% FREE exclusive dating club for a select group of very hot singles. Anyone can apply to join, but you have to be voted in by a panel of judges, that way only the best looking people can sign up. Once inside there is video chat, instant messaging, online games, new mail alerts, file sharing, the list goes on! And don't forget .... only the hottest people!

15.				dreammates.com There are three communities to choose from at Dreammates, namely "Dating", "Romance" and "Intimate". So whether you are looking to just hang out, for a serious relationship or for an intimate encounter, there will be something to suit you here. As you would expect, the site is very fast to load and a breeze to navigate.

16.				dreamdates.com A very slick and comprehensive site, the sign up procedure was painless and I found there was quite an even ratio of men to women. The "Click2Talk" instant messenger made chatting to other people very easy to do. I thought that the "featured members" on the homepage was quite a nice touch too.

17.				jdate.com There aren't many dating sites specifically for the Jewish singles community but JDate is the best one I have found. This site is not just about dating, it also features advice and details of upcoming events. The dating search facility was very good and the site generally looks very well thought out.

18.				chemistry.com If you are ready to find real chemistry, complete your free personality test and get your chemistry-inspired matches, today. Come as you are, and be rest assured that chemistry.com has thousands of diverse, passionate members who will make you go weak in the knees. Check out their blog to find surprising facts and figures, as well as helpful dating and relationship tips.

19.				outpersonals.com If you are looking for a gay partner then look no further than Outpersonals. I had trouble finding a good site catering for same sex match making, I kept getting routed to sites that were basically just trying to peddle porn. Here you will find a large picture personals section and several chat rooms.

20.				cyberdating.ca At this Canadian singles site there is no need to register or login, just search the personals for the person you want. An excellent site which is very easy to use. What a shame I don't live in Canada!

21.				annabarmina.com This must be one of the best sites for meeting women from the former Soviet Union that I have found. A quick search returned almost 10,000 pictures of ladies looking for marriage to European and American men. Don't miss this site if you're looking for a Russian bride!

22.				veggiedate.com Vegetarian? If you don't eat meat then veggiedate.com could help you find a partner with similar tastes. The personals search was quick and easy to use and you could specify as many or as few criteria as you wanted. If I wasn't so fond of hamburgers I'd try my luck finding a date on here.

23.				meet-an-inmate.com Would you like to communicate with female inmates? This site has lots of lonely ladies who are paying a price for their crimes and would like to communicate with people from the outside world. Browse the picture personals and pay $3 for each person you would like to write to. Unusual concept!

24.				lovebrowser.com Lovebrowser is graphically well designed but did seem to run a little slowly when I visited, especially when trying to perform a search. It was a very simple site to use although it doesn't tell you whether adverts include pictures or not before you click on them.

25.				singleswithscruples.com Very quick and easy to use, although if you are unscrupulous I guess you should try some other dating sites instead! The graphics are excellent without being "over the top" and don't take ages to download. The search is quick and easy and members' profiles are displayed clearly and concisely in a well thought out format.
