German Friend Finder

Single German women and men have a home with the Friend Finder network of dating sites at GermanFriendFinder.com. The site is just like any other dating site, allowing you to browse profiles and search members, much as you would expect. The only problem is that Friend Finder sites come with their own unique quirks and this one is no exception. It isn’t very user-friendly when it comes to letting you see who the members are on this site. If you are just looking for a general dating site to meet people than this may not be the one for you. If, however, your focus is connecting with German singles, it would do you good to read this review…

The profile quality on German Friend Finder is good but you won’t be able to tell that for yourself until you pay for a membership. Most sites let you browse profiles freely but German singles get the cold shoulder here, only being able to see a brief profile summary. If you try to click into the profiles, you’ll get an upgrade prompt.

That is frustrating. What anyone new to online dating needs to do to determine if a dating site is good is run searches and see how many profiles local to them log on frequently to make connecting possible. GermanFriendFinder seems to make it easier to decide whether it's worthwhile to cancel a paid membership than to sign up for one in the first place.

“One thing that German Friend Finder does best is creating a sense of community.”

Nevertheless, if you live in the United States, you can limit your results to within your zip code. However, if you want to do a distance search from a specific city other than your own, or even broaden the radius to a few miles wider than your home mailing code, you need to upgrade for the advanced search options.

As to the last login information, it seems German Friend Finder gives some broad details. You can see whether someone logged in during the last week, last three months or more than three months ago. That seems quite sketchy as far as confirming the activity levels in your local area. It would be more useful if you could sort users based on their last login date. Why they don’t do this, like most other sites, is cause for worry.

Nonetheless, one thing that German Friend Finder does best is creating a sense of community. From the choice of seeing links, many site articles and some blogs written in German to the large amount of subscriber-submitted content and chat forums, you'll feel as if you're getting some worthwhile entertainment and even some quality information tailored to German singles. You can even set up a personal network of your new online friends and potential dates. To really get a full appreciation for what’s being offered here you really need to sign up and take a peek. German Friend Finder kicks butt versus the competition with the amount of social networking you can do on the site. You can really get your monies worth here if you have an eye for more than just dating.

Finally, some of the earlier mentioned limitations that require you to update for fuller access seem less daunting once you see the highly competitive pricing of GermanFriendFinder. Overall, though, it's a solid site with a lot to offer German women and men. If you’re really looking to connect with German singles then this is one of the few places you’re going to want to make sure you check out.
