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.

If you click on the “About Us” tab on the left side bar, you are given the impression that the administrators of this site are a married couple that met through an online matchmaking site.  While that is a romantic notion, there is no proof of the validity of that claim.  There isn’t even picture of the happy couple.

Under the FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) tab, there are several simple questions answered that will be very useful to some of the Seniors out there who still find computers and the internet a bit perplexing.  I find this all very reassuring.  Also (and this makes me so excited since I complain about it in several site reviews) they provide pricing for their Premium Membership on this page.  That means that potential users can view the pricing of that package BEFORE actually signing up for the site.

This site also contains some very neat features that could make the user experience very enjoyable.  It goes very much beyond the simple profile search that so many dating sites use as their entirity.  You want these features, trust me.

Signing up for the site is very fast and very easy.  This, I’m sure, is to cater to the users who are not internet-savvy.  For those who are internet-savvy, this quick process will be welcome.

I found the pricing breakdown confusing in that they made it a little difficult to divine that the basic membership is, in fact, free.  Right now the site has a special pricing offer for the Premium Membership where a 6 month membership costs only $29.95.  Regular Premium Membership pricing is as follows:

-1 Month is $12.95

-3 Months are $24.95

-6 Months are $44.95

-1 Year is $74.95

These prices are very comparable to other matchmaking sites.  The real question is whether or not this site is worth your money.  Yes.  It is.

I sincerely hope that the mentality towards Senior dating has changed from when my grandmother was alive.  When she hit 50 as a single woman, she closed up shop and assumed that her days as a partner to another human being were over.  She spent her time reading cheesy romance novels to fill that part of her and it made me so sad for her.  If only she had lived long enough to see the rise of the internet matchmaking site she might have had a different perspective on her status as a woman and a viable adult.

Besides talks of Viagra, there is surprisingly little on the internet in the way of the Senior dating scene.  Seniors seem to be the forgotten demographic…or they are expected to prey on the younger generations.  While the May-December relationship is not something we look down upon, Seniors should have better options where dating within their age group is concerned.

Here at Datester, we have 12 dating sites geared specifically towards Senior daters in our dating directory.  To find them, click on the Dating Directory tab at the top of the page, go to the Lifestyle/Fetish Dating page, and scroll down until you see the Senior Dating category.

For some additional reading regarding Senior Dating, feel free to check out the following pages!

SuddenlySenior.com is a funny page that is written specifically for the young at heart among you Seniors.  In this article, a hilarious view of the Senior dating scene is profiled.  It’s funny and smart.

“Although folks like Tony Bennett and Cher prove that we’ve all got a comeback in us, at our age every date severely tests that theory. Frequently, codger-daters turn to local dating services or the Internet in search of Mr. or Ms. Right.“

LoveToKnow.com also provides an article for the Senior Datesters.  This article is encouraging and insightful.  It offers great suggestions as well as acknowledges what Senior daters go through.

“It’s true, you’re really only as old as you feel, and if you feel like you still have a lot to offer someone romantically, then by all means, get out there and dive into the seniors dating scene. You’ll be glad you did.”

eZineArticles.com provides an article that is poorly written but contains some fantastic dating ideas for Senior Datesters.  If you haven’t been in the dating scene for a while and are worried about what a date consists of these days, check out this article.  You’ll find it very helpful.

“Mature people dating is centred on companionship the feeling of somebody being with you by your side, enjoying your company as much as you enjoy theirs. It is about talking to one another about days gone by, appreciating each other.”

Please don’t feel that your age is a hindrance to your love life.  If you are lonely and longing for companionship or even love, it is out there for you at your fingertips.  A dating experience as a mature and vibrant adult has the potential to be so much more fulfilling than it was in the teenage and early adult years.  Don’t deprive yourself of all of life’s experiences.  Get out there.

Every body is Irish on St. Patrick’s Day.  Everybody drinks green beer, Guinness, or loads of Irish whiskey to celebrate the Emerald Isle.  Because of the celebratory imbibing of the Irish Liquid Confidence, this day might be an opportune time to get out to the party scene and have a good time.  Not only for the sake of meeting people, but just to let loose and have a good time.  We Irish know how to let loose.

People will be happy.  People will be looking to have a good time.  Flirtation is usually a big part of these good times.  Every year I hear a new story from a single friend about the awesome people about town on St. Patrick’s Day.

Relax.  Go out looking to have fun and party a little.  Don’t go out on a mission to hook up or find the love of your life.  If you’re relaxed, you will be more attractive.  Drink some of that green beer, have some lamb stew, listen to some Thin Lizzy (an Irish rock band for you kids out there), and have a great time.  If you meet someone, consider it a perk.

So GO!  GO have a good time for crying out loud.  Flirt.  Be naughty.  Be confident and sexy.  Have fun and tell us about it when the hangover wears off!

The fact that this site has a different spin should be enough for you to at least tip toe over to have a peek.  You’ll see a clean site that is laid out in a tidy manner and is easily navigable.  You will also see a site that contains the blog of Jennifer Kelton, the creator of the site.  Jennifer created this site because she has had some experience with bad online dates and has a wealth of stories and advice to share with her community.  So that’s an upside, my datesters.  Not only is there a community behind this site, but there is also a very tangible person overseeing the whole process.  It’s small and personable.

Signing up for this site is very typical except for the fact that you are asked to share your bad dating stories on your profile.  It’s all very standard.  The profile itself is pretty typical, again, with the exception of the bad dating stories which can range from tragic to hilarious.  As for pricing, this site is 100% free.  Sometimes I can get excited over free sites and sometimes I am suspicious.  This time, I’m excited.

I have nothing else to say that would do this site any justice.  Get your butts over there and check it out.  It really is as awesome as I am telling you.  If you’ve had some bad online dating experiences, you’re not alone and this website aspires to be the haven for your kind.

TSB Magazine celebrates the holiday season by offering a series of free gifts, for a limited time, to all of its regular readers. The first free gift is a 65 page eBook containing the largest collection of useful pickup lines ever assembled.

Bloomfield, NJ (PRWEB) December 4, 2008 — TSB Magazine, the online resource for alpha male living, college life and fashion, announces that it will be offering a series of free gift to all its readers from now until December 24th 2008.

“While many in our industry are struggling mightily to stay afloat, we have been fortunate to see tremendous growth over the last quarter. We wanted to give back to our loyal readers who have brought us the success we’ve experienced,” says Anthony Almeida of TSB Magazine. “We chose to offer a free collection of the best pick up lines because our research indicated that there was high demand for this kind of book.”
TSB Magazine, who recently redesigned their site, has been in the process of consistently hiring new authors and contributors over the last several months. They now have close to ten full time writers on staff.

Along with the new writers, another major change is the site’s new members-only section. Completely free of charge, the members-only section contains everything that TSB Magazine can’t or won’t post on its site.

“We’ve seen the number of new member’s sky rocket over the last couple months. We really wanted to show them they truly are appreciated. We realize that not all online magazines have been as lucky as us,” says Jeffrey Posner.

The first of the free gifts, a 65 page eBook has already been downloaded over two thousand times in a matter of days. The eBook contains pick up lines and openers compiled from the world’s greatest pickup artists such as Vh1’s Mystery and author of The Game, Neil Strauss.

“This is just the beginning of our assault of free material to our readers,” says Anthony Almeida. “We have a handful of surprises in store for our readers over the next month. TSB Magazine is truly in the spirit of giving.”

Suzanne Hansen’s book, “Charles’ Guide to 101 Romantic Fun Dates for Under $20,” is a popular dating guide which still remains relevant, particularly in this economic climate. Hansen’s long-running website, 101RomanticDatesUnderTwentyDollers.com, is expanding to include a new blog.

Myrtle Creek, OR (PRWEB) December 7, 2008 — In 2003, Suzanne Hansen wrote a second edition of a book that helped one of her sons come up with ideas for dates that wouldn’t “break the bank.” Hansen’s “Charles’ Guide to 101 Romantic Fun Dates for Under $20″ has since garnered a number of positive reviews and built a corresponding website, www.101RomanticDatesUnderTwentyDollers.com, with several dating tips.

“When I started writing the book, I ran a contest for 101 date ideas before the internet had really taken off,” said Hansen. “When I started the site, I wanted to have a way to reach more people and that lead the reprinting of the book.”

Charles’ Guide to 101 Dates for Under $20
While the website is chiefly centered on the book, Hansen has thought about diversifying her site to include candles, incense and etc., which would also keep in the theme of romance. In addition to expanding the website, Hansen has also recently launched a new blog, www.101RomanticCheapDates.com.

“The blog is a natural extension of the ‘Charles’ Guide,’” she said. “There will be new ideas for dates and recipes, which is a take off of ‘Decadent Desserts,’ a section in the book.”

Though the second edition of the book is nearing its five year anniversary, Hansen hopes that the website will introduce new ideas on dating in this economy, though she’s quick to point out that the book itself still works:

“I have recently evaluated the dates in the book and many of them are still feasible for under $20, several have been broken down to classification, seasons, and regions. Not to mention an entire recipe section that has more than two dozen fun food ideas for personable dates.

“‘Charles’ Guide to 101 Dates for Under $20′ isn’t just for first dates, it’s good for married and long established couples who may need a bit of spark back in the romance,” Hansen continued. “Both the book and the website are great for all romantics alike.”

About the Company:
101RomanticDatesUnderTwentyDollers.com was published by Suzanne Hansen and her Whispering Falls Publications. The second edition of “Charles’ Guide to 101 Dates for Under $20″ was printed in 2003.
