As of today, Chemistry offers a 14 day trial to try out their service for free. Recently I received the question: Is the Chemistry.com free trial worth it? At first, I thought this was an odd question. If it’s free, how could it not be worth it? However, the more I thought about it the more I realized the real answer is “it depends”.
Can I Have Success with Chemisty.com in the 14-Day Trial?
This is the question that was actually being [...]

Several services are offering specials for this upcoming Valentine’s Day. I should mention that I find out about most of these deals because I’m signed up for dozens of dating services for the purpose of receiving these types of emails. I’m making the assumption that the deals I’m being emailed are available to everyone (I feel that this is a safe assumption). Still, you’ll want to verify the promotion is actually available if decide to sign up. I’ll add additional [...]

Just in time for Valentine’s Day, eHarmony is having a free weekend from February 11th to February 15th 2010. This should actually be considered a free event since it runs 5 days instead of the more common 3 days.
This free event has the opportunity to be one of the bigger free weekends at eHarmony considering the timing so if you’ve never signed up, now might be a good time to try. As I’ve recommended in the past, I think [...]

Chemistry is having another free communication weekend, this weekend Friday February 5th through Sunday February 7th. I apologize for being really late on this one but between finding out late, a huge snowstorm and no internet access this is the earliest I was able to get this out. Still, if you’ve signed up in the past you could log into your account for the rest of the weekend if this is the first you’re hearing about it.

Once again, eHarmony is having a free “weekend” although in this case the weekend is five full days. From Wednesday December 30th 2009 to Sunday January 3rd 2010 all users will be able to communicate freely.
This is only the second time in the last six months that eHarmony has provided a free event lasting more than a weekend (the last time was back in October). It may appear that I’m stating the obvious but these extended events are extremely [...]

Lavalife is having another free email weekend starting Saturday December 19th at 12:01am and running until December 20th at 11:59pm. This free weekend is a little shorter than their previous weekends and, as has been the case before, they seem to alert people that this is happening at the last minute (I found out after the free weekend had already started).
For those unaware, the Lavalife free email weekend basically makes the entire site free (as far as communicating with other [...]

Chemistry.comis having its last Free Communication Weekend for the year 2009 later this week. The free weekend will run from December 4th, 2009 through December 6th, 2009.
For those not familiar with it, Chemistry.com is a service similar to eHarmony in that they provide you matches based on your personality. Your personality is determined by taking a lengthy test and it’s free to take this test and create your profile. Not surprisingly, you have to pay to do anything beyond this…except [...]

eHarmony is having another free communication weekend starting at 12:01AM on November 19th and running until 11:59PM on Sunday, November 22nd. This free weekend also appears to be open to eHarmony Canada members.
Over the last few months, eHarmony has had a free event at least once a month, including a free 5-day event a few weeks ago. If you still haven’t yet created your free profile you might want to consider doing so…no reason to miss out on [...]

Wow….lots of free this and free that this month with the dating services! First there was the first ever Lavalife free email weekend, then another free weekend at Chemistry.com (the second free weekend in less than a month) and now eHarmony is having its first “Free Communication Event”. eHarmony is know for its free weekends and this approach make sense. This is because many of the benefits the dating site provides can never be seen unless you’re actually a [...]

Just a quick line to let you know that Chemistry is having another free weekend this coming weekend. This is the second time in a month Chemistry is having a free weekend (see my comments on regarding that one at Chemistry.com Free Weekend, September 2009).
While I can’t promise this frequency of free weekends will continue, at this rate it would be well worth having an account even if you only plan to use the service every fourth weekend!
Remember: Chemistry.com [...]

This weekend, for the first time ever, Lavalife is having a free email weekend. Normally the service is free to sign up for and browse other users, just like almost every other dating site of this type. However, this weekend everyone will also be able to email other members for free.
This practice is common for both eHarmony and Chemistry.com and in some ways it makes more sense from a business point of view for these services to offer free weekends. [...]

Just a quick update: this weekend will be a free communication weekend for eHarmony Canada. I talked about my thoughts on the free weekends here but I’ll say again here there’s several good reasons for trying it out. If you’ve never tried eHarmony and live in Canada, now would be a great time to see what it’s all aboot. Keep in mind that you can sign up before the weekend begin (and you may want to because the personality test [...]

Following quickly on the heels of the eHarmony free weekend, Chemistry.com is offering a free communication weekend beginning this Friday the 18th through Sunday the 20th. As my readers know, I used eHarmony when I was dating online and Chemistry is a similar service.
Because I had already met my to-be-wife by the time Chemistry came onto the scene in 2006, I’d never used this service. So I decided to try out their personality test over the weekend and it was [...]
