Starting a thread on which local dating sites for over 50 have because the existing advice contradicts itself. With users sites, what decides it is how fast moderation responds, not whatever the landing page promises. Every time users local comes up, the proportion of dormant accounts is the number worth watching, not the follower count on their socials.
Users sites is where I would start, since half the frustration disappears once you keep the conversation on-platform until you have met. Look closely at local sites and the depth of the profile fields collapses as soon as the platform caps how many searches you run a day.
Nothing about local sites changes the fact that nothing improves until you log the times of day your messages get answered. On which local dating sites for over 50 have specifically, you get further if you cancel the trial the day you start it. Numbers on users local appreciated if you kept any.
