RomanceBeat.com Survey Shows Women Love Online Dating Services

Women Are Pleased with Results and Plan to Keep On Using Services
 
NEW YORK - Feb. 2, 2015 - PRLog -- According to a new survey from RomanceBeat.com, a clear majority (83%) of more than 600 women who use online dating services are pleased with the results and will keep using them. RomanceBeat.com is the site that takes the “pulse of romance” in pop culture.

Asked why they use online dating services, 36% said it was to “meet interesting people,” while 30% were interested in them for “casual dating,” 18% to “hookup/have sex,” 10% to “find a partner who could turn into a husband” and 6% to “find a husband.”

Of those using the services, 83% were pleased with the results use them “frequently,” while just 10% said they would not try them again.

Despite their success with surveys, 51% of the respondents said ”there is a stigma attached to using” them.” Sixty-five percent of the respondents said they had resisted using an online dating service, 58% said their reluctance was because of “fear,” while 24% cited “money” and 18% said “stigma.”

“Obviously the fear and possible stigma are not enough to keep single women away from online dating services, as they are increasingly popular,” noted RomanceBeat.com editorial director Lori Perkins.  “The more popular they get the greater chance the stigma will vanish. We think they’re here to stay.”

Seventy-six percent of the survey respondents said they rely on recommendations from friends about which services to use and 77% said they primarily learn about new services online.
