be2 : Dating Site Review
Dating websites are normally found in two basic formats – the personality/questionnaire based versions and the geographic versions. The Be2 website is actually a combination of both. Though it has 20 million members across six continents, it tends to have a Canadian “focus”. This, however, does not limit the pool of available romantic partners for those outside of North America, and targeted searching is possible. The system of basing searches on personalities and then sorting by location is a potent combination that has good results.
Features
The site is feature-rich and well organized. Instead of a lot of confusing “bells and whistles” or a complicated control panel to figure out, the Be2.com site uses a very streamlined master profile page. Along the top of this page are four tabs that control membership, lists of active matches and visitors, the profile itself, and the inbox. Within these easy to use areas are all of the functions and features that help the customer to conduct their searches, look at profiles, and communicate easily and effectively. The list tab provides information about activities since the last visit and supplies the customer with recommendations for potential dates.
This tab made it easy to see that there are a lot of chances for finding a date through this site. In order double check the success rates for the site it is a good idea to visit their “Lovestories” area that shows a good array of details about couples who met through the site and embarked on long-term relationships.
Safety
Taking someone else’s “word for it” is not advisable, and the company’s privacy policy and “science” pages offered a great deal of reassurance. The program is scientifically tested for results, and the private information used by all clients is guaranteed to be secure. This is really all that is needed to know that safety is assured.
Pricing
Once the features, rate of success, and safety of the site are confirmed, it is a good idea to look at the affordability. The Be2.com site actually makes one of the most affordable plans available. The one month subscription for full access is a remarkably low $5, with a six month renewal. The three month plan is also fairly priced with a $60 per month rate, and the six month plan is the most reasonably priced with a $30 per month fee. The enrollment process took less than one minute as well, and this makes it easy to get started ASAP!
Putting it to the Test
Of course, the true “proof is in the pudding,” and the ease of use for the Be2.com site could only be determined by a “trial run”. After taking the five minutes to fill out the personality questionnaire and then a few more minutes in answering some of the profile questions, the site sends back a strong list of matches. These are clicked through by hovering over the image or name, and this opens the profile in a new tab or pane.
This was one of the simplest dating sites we have encountered and we give it a high rating.
