Although the dating site has been around for a long time, it hasn't blossomed in numbers like its contemporaries. However, the user numbers for Cupid.com are still fairly decent as there are always several people online as proven by the number of people in the chatroom during peak hours. Similar to other matchmaking websites, Cupid is filled with users looking for a serious relationship or marriage. This doesn't mean that you can't look for fun or friendship in this site - in fact, you'll find a large number of users looking for something "not serious" as written on their profiles.

You can identify members with a paid membership by the green checkmark icon next to their profile name.

At the bottom of your profile you'll see several attributes with sliders next to them. Evaluate your personality and adjust the sliders accordingly. For example, for the Extroverted slider, you can move the slider all the way to 100% if you are a sociable and outgoing person. However, if you're an introvert, you should keep the slider to 10% to 20%.

As far as matchmaking sites go, Cupid is a keeper. There are just so many things to do on the site to keep you entertained. Aside from finding matches, you can also answer the quiz, complete your profile and swipe left or right on LikeBook. The inability to communicate with others for free will definitely dissuade some people, but once you're a premium member, you will be privy to a whole lot of features and perks to make the entire experience more enjoyable.
