JDate -
Dating For Jewish Singles

  

JDate
Within the dating industry, JDate would normally be referred as catering for a "niche section"; that is, Jewish singles.  However, the popularity and sheer size of JDate pulls it way above any other niche dating website.

At the time of writing, JDate is ranked is the top 1000 most visited websites in the whole world*...that's ALL websites, not just dating-orientated ones, which means that JDate receives millions of visits each day. As if to confirm that dry old statistic, my first visit to the site was in the early hours of the morning, yet there were still nearly 6,000 members online. 

Staggering!


OK, so what's drawing all these people to JDate? It's not as if there's any shortage of jewish dating sites. On the surface, it's difficult to fathom out exactly what sets JDate apart from the rest. While it makes good use of communications technology (e-mail, instant messaging and chat rooms), JDate isn't screaming with bells and whistles - it doesn't even have video-cam. 

You need to dig a little deeper to find out what makes JDate such a winner with Jewish singles.  I've come up with the following;

  • Accessibility - you can become a free member with a minimal amount of input. This free membership gives you an unprecedented amount of access to many of the site's key features including Teases (one-liner messages you can send to let someone know you're interested) as well as receiving and replying to instant messages.
     

  • The minimalist approach to technology makes it incredibly easy to make full use of the site.  You're presented with information in a clean, straightforward style that allows to to get to the heart of what/who you're looking for quickly.
     

  • JDate appears to be a truly Jewish site for Jews of all shades (as opposed to a catchall-all dating site which has a few "Jewish Singles" banners thrown across it) .
     

  • JDate's claim to being a Jewish "community" is strengthened by the regular social events held across the U.S and beyond. There's a party or musical event on somewhere each week, as well as extended trips such as skiing holidays and cruises.
     

Features:

  • E-mail

  • Instant Messaging

  • Teases

  • Chat Rooms

  • Hotlist

  • Search

  • Events

Highs

  • Degree of free participation available.
     

  • Great range of real events - not sad parties where no-hopers sit around waiting for someone to speak to them.

Lows

  • I question a logic which prevents a company hosting events for a Jewish audience from ensuring that the hors d'oeuvres provided are kosher - they aren't.
     

  • Although JDate claim to host different events for different age groups, the vast majority are aimed at people below the age of 35.
