The Bottom Line
Probably the most
popular and comprehensive site for men seeking men, gay and bi couples,
groups, as well as TS/TV/TG. As part of the
FriendFinder network,
OutPersonals is a well managed quality service.
Membership
Well over half a million. Around five thousand new photos a
week, number of new profiles undisclosed but likely to be higher.
Profile Detail
Emphasis is more on describing yourself and the sort of
person you are looking for than selecting from a standard list of likes
and dislikes etc. Entire albums of photos can be added if you want.
Searching
Three levels - basic (including location) for free members,
and progressively more advanced for Silver and Gold members (more details
below). Lots of options for the type of relationship or encounter you are
looking for.
Coverage
The whole world, through a single website available in English.
Safety
You are asked to verify you age before viewing search results, as
most profiles contain explicit photos. If you join, your email address is
verified.
How much can be done for free
You can perform basic searching and browse
profile headlines without registering at all. If you register for free,
which is quick and easy then you can perform location based searches too,
and even initiate contact with certain members. Full registration can be
"Gold" or "Silver", and you can sign up for 1, 3 or 12 months with good
savings on longer subscriptions. Both levels of membership allow more
advanced searching and full access to profiles, and allow for initiation
of contact with other members. Gold subscribers get even more advanced
searching, preferential placement in listings, and emails when new matches
are found. Given the minor difference in price we would suggest the Gold
plan. An interesting extra option is that for an extra charge you can
elect to allow free members to send you emails.
Site speed and ease of navigation
Very fast. Simple logical layout
giving easy access to all the usual extra features like chat room and
messenger services, should you want to use them. There's also a magazine
section with articles and an advice line.
