As the world's most frequently visited dating
site for seniors, with almost 400,000 active users in total,
Senior Friend Finder wholly deserves the Number 1 Choice Award in
this category. SeniorFriendFinder specializes in matching those aged 50
and over, though there is no upper or lower age limit on application to
the site. The website is attractive and easy to navigate, and while the
home page may be accused of being 'busy', the wealth of information
available on the website means users get best value for money and can
make use of all of the available features. The features available for
use on SeniorFriendFinder means that the site becomes more than just a
dating site, and develops into a community of individuals looking
for anything from friendship and companionship to marriage! Easy to use
and varied communication methods built into the site, such as chat,
instant messaging, blogs and the opportunity to share additional
contact information through detailed profiles means that its never been
easier to meet that special someone!
Senior FriendFinder is part of the vast network
of FriendFinder sites which comprise a great number of collective users
and is well respected. The FriendFinder network has built its
reputation on a high quality experience, taking advantage of the
growing communicative possibilities that are the result of modern
technology, and offering the greatest number of additional site
features to encourage users to remain active members of the site.
As the name suggests, SeniorFriendFinder is
more than just a dating site - it is not just for Senior singles
looking for romance, but is also for seniors looking for friends and
companionship. With an aging population, there are now many retired
people in the world (single and otherwise), and being retired can make
it hard to forge new friendships when your largest social group in the
past comprised your work colleagues. SeniorFriendFinder can help you
find new friends with similar interests and outlooks on life, whilst
maintaining your privacy and anonymity if you so wish!
SeniorFriendFinder is also a great way to meet and get to know people
from all over the world, something that can be both exciting and fun -
see it as an opportunity to make 'digital penpals'! As such,
SeniorFriendFinder is more than just a dating site, its gives all
seniors the opportunity to forge all kinds of social relationships.
Profiles on SeniorFriendFinder are a joy to
edit, navigate and browse and the high number of members who have
display pictures illustrates that the site is an active community that
is regularly updated. The site is extremely simple to use, even for a
computer novice. The site boasts that more than 1,000 images are
added daily and this is testament to the level of involvement that
members have within the community. The 'magazine' feature helps to
create this community atmosphere, giving its members the opportunity to
share talents, skills and experiences (in other words true
'personality') with other members in a way that profiles can not always
adequately display. The ability to read the written work of members in
such a way can help to create long-lasting connections between members
- friendship, dating or otherwise. The blogs and chat rooms offer
further opportunities to develop the community atmosphere!
The site offers numerous additional extras
that users can add to their profiles for a fee, so that their profiles
are more likely to be noticed in search results. The ability to add
highlighting to a profile listing as it appears in the list of search
results and messages sent by you in another member's inbox means that
your profile gets added attention. Similarly, allowing standard members
to email you at no cost to to themselves (provided you are a premium member)
encourages users to get in contact with you and increases your chance
of making a particularly special connection.
There are numerous reasons why
SeniorFriendFinder is successful in winning our Number 1 Choice Award,
namely:
- The world's most popular
senior dating site - SeniorFriendFinder is widely appreciated as
the world's most popular dating site for seniors, and its reputation is
backed up by the success of the family of FriendFinder sites who are
leaders in internet dating.

of active users out of any of the sites we reviewed (more then
400,000!), the greatest chance of success is with SeniorFriendFinder.

useful tools for communication - SeniorFriendFinder allows
members to use email, messaging, instant messaging, forums, message
boards, video messaging, Access to ICQ, AIM, YIM & MSN ID's of
members in your
network, and of course, standard user profiles. This is more for your
money than any other senior dating site!

Even with all of these features the price-per-month for
SeniorFriendFinder is one of the cheapest we came across!
- Great customer service
- On the rare occasion you might come across a problem, your membership

and honest profile attracts the most attention. SeniorFriendFinder is
different because it offers the user the greatest opportunity to forge
links based on more than just information presented in a profile. By
providing the user with a plethora of varied communication methods and
outlets through which to meet interesting users with common interests
SeniorFriendFinder offers the greatest value for money, and most

with other users. And of course, with more senior users in one place
