Registration
The registration process can seem simple enough, but somehow, unless you have a super rare username, it will take you ages to find one that is “not taken”. Funny thing was I tried a random jumble of letters and the site still tells me that this username has been taken. That being said, you can sign up on Plenty of Fish by providing the usual information like your email address, gender, birth date, country and ethnicity.
Profile
Once everything’s set up, you can then start filling in your profile. Plenty of Fish does ask you a lot of questions ranging from your physical properties, like weight, height, eye color and body type, to zodiac signs, religion, education, profession, interests, and current relationship status. You’ll even be asked whether you would like to have children, do you smoke or drink, or that do you have a car.
These are the easiest parts to fill in though. You’ll also be prompted to write an “About Me” description of yourself. Don’t forget to upload a suitable profile photo as well! Or if you want, you could even upload even more photos of yourself doing a variety of stuff that you love and enjoy up on the site.
Matches
The matches on Plenty of Fish are obtained via the site’s unique behavioral matchmaking algorithm which they call the POF Relationship Chemistry predictor (POFCP), a system that is still at the forefront in its field. It measures 5 broad dimensions of personality that is vital in building a romantic relationship, namely self-confidence, family orientation, self-control, social dependency/ openness and easy-goingness, and is developed based on a statistical model of thousands of successful couples. It sounds pretty awesome and it works just as well too!
That being said, you can also obtain matches via emails from the website or by browsing through the many recommended matches offered to you via the Meet Me option. In the Meet Me section, you’ll be shown an array of profile pictures of potential dates along with their age and location. You can then choose whether you’d be interested to date them by choosing one of 3 options – Yes, Maybe or No.
Communication Options
Now that you’ve found someone suitable, it’s time to take a deep breath and send him, or her, the first message. Communication on Plenty of Fish is free unlike some other online dating sites. You can even send them virtual gifts via the site. Interestingly, you could even skip all the online exchanges and head straight to one of the many date night events organized by members of Plenty of Fish to meet your potential date if you knew he or she will be there. If not, well, you could always ask them out.
General Look
Plenty of Fish, like many online dating sites, are designed with simplicity in mind. That being said, the site has a very clean interface that allow for smooth and hassle-free navigation. The on-site messaging system is easy to use as well.
Special Features
Besides the Chemistry Predictor, the site even has a quiz section where it has a variety of quizzes on offer that can help you gauge whether your love interest is a keeper or not; along with plenty other personality tests including a psychological assessment, and relationship needs assessment. Furthermore, like OkCupid, they also have an app version of the site called Passion Match. This app allows for quick matches on the go.
Cost
The registration, profile building, matching and even communication are free on Plenty of Fish. However, there are some restrictions in place that you can remove by subscribing to the site’s membership program. For instance, free users can upload only a few photos on their profile but an upgraded member can upload up to 16 photos in total. Not to mention, free users will not get access to the extended profile of another user, but upgraded members will have a free pass to every person’s extended profile on the site. There are 2 types of upgraded versions for between $6.78 and $12.90 a month. Obviously, the longer you subscribe to the membership program, the more worth it the cost will be.
Conclusion
All in all, Plenty of Fish is a rather popular online dating service that uses a unique behavioral matchmaking algorithm - the POF Relationship Chemistry predictor (POFCP). There are even fun quizzes that you can complete to find out more about yourself and your current relationship situation. So, if you’re interested, be sure to give this site a go today!
