Dating sites often feel like a dime a dozen, with new ones regularly popping up with gimmicks and vacant guarantees. But the best dating sites don’t shower you with bells and whistles; instead, they focus on something simple: Niche dating.
There are several benefits to using a niche dating platform, including the following:
They Cut Through the Red Tape
Typical dating sites pair people with any John or Jane Doe; whether or not you have things in common is something you’ll need to figure out for yourself. This causes all sorts of romantic red tape; you might not realize you have values opposite from your date until you’re sitting down for a face-to-face dinner. A niche dating app, on the other hand, cuts through this tape; you’ll know your values jibe with your potential partner before even ordering appetizers.
They Group Together Like-Minded People
From sites dedicated to Jewish people to sites dedicated to seniors, from sites dedicated to single parents to sites devoted to liberal folks, niche dating groups like-minded people together. This is highly important to that site’s ability to foster strong partnerships. The reason is apparent: Most people want to grow old with people who think like them (at least when it comes to the big stuff).
They Make Planning Dates Easier
Because they’re founded on commonalities, niche dating sites make planning the actual date more accessible, something most daters dread. Revolving a date around agreed-upon likes, such as the outdoors or conservationism, also leads to a more memorable date than going to a run-of-the-mill restaurant or grabbing coffee and discussing each other’s exes.
They Have Higher Success Rates
With all the above benefits, it’s easy to conclude that niche dating is more successful than dating that does not consider the values you have in common or the things you disagree on. And ultimately, that’s what daters care about. Most people aren’t on dating platforms to see how many awkward dates they can waste their time on; they are looking for something real.
