PerfectMatch.com is having a promotion to buy 1 month and get 1 month free. This offer is a great way to try out the service for a longer time period for a half of the price it would normally cost. As I’ll discuss below, many of us make less than perfect subscription choices when first signing up at online dating services.

There are many different promotions happening this February at different online dating services and I wanted to create a list of these here.
There are three services that are free to use (or at least free in part) while the others are offering discounts in one form or another. I’ll update this list as I hear about further promos. Here’s the list:

As I predicted earlier this month, the online dating promos keep on coming with Valentine’s Day approaching. This time PerfectMatch is offering a 25% discount for anyone who signs up in the month of February for a 1-month subscription.
If you are unfamiliar with PerfectMatch, you can read my detail review of this online dating service here. A quick overview of the service is that it provides both flexibility and personality-matching within one dating service. It takes features that often compete [...]

eHarmony Canada is having a free weekend starting this Friday the 8th at 12:01am and running until Monday the 11th at 11:59pm.
Try the eHarmony free weekend.
In this case, eHarmony has separated the U.S. and Canada free events into two separate promotions (although your guess is as good as my as to why). The U.S. event is running a full ten days, although we’re in the middle of that event right now. You can see more about the U.S. event here.

This Wednesday, July 21, 2010, DatingDirect will be offering a free trial to all new subscribers who sign up between 6 PM and midnight (UK residents only). Compared to most free dating events, this is a very small window of time to take advantage of the service.
In addition, it appears that only the users who actually signed up during this six hour period are going to be able to take advantage of the free communication. I see this as [...]

eHarmony’s next free weekend is July 2nd until July 5th 2010. If you are new to eHarmony, during the eHarmony Free Communication Weekends you can communicate with all of your matches absolutely FREE. While eHarmony almost always refers to these events as weekends, there are actually 4 days of free communication for you to take advantage of (so it is more of a free long-weekend). Generally the events begin at 12AM of the first date and end at 11:59PM of [...]

In my last article I discussed many on-going dating service promotions. Advertised promotions are a great way to save some money signing up for a dating site but it is not the only way. Here is another method to save some money:

In my last post I discussed some of the good and the bad regarding the usefulness of Chemistry’s 14-day trial. This time I wanted to offer tips to those who do decided to take advantage of this offer. My hope is to provide advice that will help make the most of the dating service while it’s free.
