| eHarmony is an online dating site that owes their success to comprehensive study (over 35 years of research) on relationship dynamics and the characteristics that make long-term relationships thrive, specifically in regards to online dating and married couples. They have perfected an approach that measures 29 dimensions of personality and compatibility to generate singles that complement each other. With staggering figures for claims of how many couples get married after meeting on eHarmony, many singles in Canada are finding it a useful site for serious online dating. | Eharmony boasts amazing success with the proven scientific techniques behind their 29 dimensions of compatibility. The initial questionnaire offers new users perspective and insight in regards to what they are actually looking for in a mate, rather than what might superficially sound interesting. This results in Canadian singles that are uniquely like minded and well suited to each other being matched. The incredible accuracy of their matches (and a solid advertising campaign) has made eHarmony one of the best dating sites in Canada. |

| Match.com offers the widest range of variety for online dating sites, particularly for minority affiliations or ethnicities – i.e. Asian, Christians, seniors, etc. According to Match representatives, they have been behind 4% of the marriages in the United States alone. | Match.com is one of the most well known dating sites in the world. This dating site was one of the first of its kind to appear in 1995. Match.com offers free writing selections, service in French of English, 26 profile photos, and highly detailed search options. Although Match.com is well known in Canada and is still a great dating site, they are not as cutting edge as they once were. | 8 / 10 | Match | |
| Chemistry.com was created as an offshoot of the online dating site, Match.com. Chemistry uses compatibility charts, based on the users “chemistry,” to best evaluate and generate a match. This unique process has helped many Canadian singles to find that perfect relationship that seems almost too good to be true. | Unfortunately Chemistry.com just doesn’t do online dating as well as some of the other sites on our list. The site’s alleged chemistry algorithm doesn’t often return ideal matches, and the site is less intuitive than be2. One nice thing is Chemistry often offers 7-day free trials allowing singles to try out the paid features of the site for a limited time. | 7 / 10 | Chemistry | |
| PerfectMatch.com has been experiencing incredible outcomes, developing their compatibility searches from the famous Myers Briggs personality test. This ensures that local Canadian singles can find their ideal companion, whatever their relational needs might be. PerfectMatch was created by the leading figures of the online dating scene – who actually used to own Kiss.com and uDate.com before they were sold to Match.com. They are based on years of research, helping them to syndicate their search engines with proven personality tests to shape a useful and efficient system for online dating. | PerfectMatch’s compatibility system based on the Myers Briggs personality tests is the way to go if you are interested in learning more about your own personality and reviewing and selecting potential Canadian matches (for free!) that might work well for you. PerfectMatch has been quickly increasing in popularity as more and more Canadian singles are introduced to their complex personality testing – particularly after the dating site received coverage on Dr. Phil and The Today Show some years ago. à Current Promotion Ending August 31, 2011: Buy 2 Months, Get 2 Months Free | 6 / 10 | PerfectMatch |
