The Short Version: ConsciousMatch is a niche dating site that’s run by a spiritually driven team of industry professionals. For over two decades, site owner Jill Crosby has established multiple platforms that facilitate spiritual connections between like-minded people. As part of the Conscious Dating Network, the ConsciousMatch website has access to a deep and diverse database of single people who share common values and philosophies. ConsciousMatch offers a warm welcome to holistic healers, meditation leaders, yogis, and other spiritual people on a journey to find love and enlightenment.

The Conscious Dating Network (CDN) represents the largest community of spiritual, mindful, and open-hearted singles on the web. Its founder and owner Jill Crosby is an environmental activist and tech entrepreneur who launched her first dating site in 2000. At the time, online dating was still very much a niche activity, and Jill decided to carve a niche within the niche and help spiritual people like herself put their hearts on the line.

Jill created the flagship site SpiritualSingles.com out of a desire to create a friendly space where like-minded people could come together and bond over their common values. The Conscious Dating Network sprang from the success of this enterprise.

In December 2007, Jill sold her house in Portland and quit her day job so she could pour all her energy and attention into the Conscious Dating Network. She now lives with her two dogs in St. Croix, an island in the Caribbean, where she works on her websites and takes singles and couples on SCUBA diving trips.

Thus, what began as one woman’s passion project has become a global sensation centered around spiritual dating.

The Conscious Dating Network is a trusted brand for spiritual matchmaking.

Jill is the proud owner of several online dating sites within the niche of spiritual dating. ConsciousMatch is a valued part of the Conscious Dating Network. This diverse and welcoming community has set itself apart from mainstream dating sites and swiping apps.

ConsciousMatch speaks to people’s core beliefs and values, and its enlightened members have formed friendships and relationships through the interconnected network.

According to the website, “The Conscious Dating Network has been growing dramatically year after year and is the largest, exclusively conscious/spiritual network of dating sites on the Internet. Jill said she is ever so grateful that she trusted her guidance and made that leap of faith!”

Helping Spiritually Awakened Singles Connect on a Deep Level

ConsciousMatch begins with a completely free membership and then offers optional upgrades along the way. The free plan includes profile creation, unlimited browsing, and some communication options. For instance, free members can send up to five prewritten icebreaker messages per day. They can also read and reply to messages sent to their inboxes.

A person with a paid dating account can send up to 50 first messages per day, upload 20 photos and two videos to their profile, and send images via private message. Subscription prices start at $12 per month for six months — the cost varies based on the duration of the membership.

ConsciousMatch differentiates itself from mainstream dating sites and apps by offering unique match questions about spirituality, eco-consciousness, morality, and lifestyle choices. The Match Questions can help users discover compatible dates on the site, and it’s a fun personality test to add to one’s profile.

“These are quite extensive, and there are some zinger answers thrown in to keep it entertaining,” the team explained. “Not only do you answer each question for you, you also select the answers that are acceptable for a potential match.”

The Conscious Dating Network is a leader in the spiritual dating niche. Not only has it been around longer than any other conscious dating site or app, but it has also established the largest following of spiritual singles on the web.

Over the last 20 years, Jill has looked for solutions that will lift the mindful and holistic community up by providing more resources geared toward their needs. That’s why ConsciousMatch shares its membership base with Spiritual Singles, Green Singles, and other niche dating websites under the Conscious Dating Network umbrella.

“Rather than compete against other conscious, spiritual, and green dating sites, we feel it’s better to share so everyone wins,” the ConsciousMatch team said. “As a member, you may meet someone [who] joined a different site than you; however, it’s all the SAME once you log in — like different rivers flowing into the same lake.”

A Longstanding & Loving Resource for Niche Dating

ConsciousMatch is part of a proud tradition of matchmaking that goes back over 20 years. The Conscious Dating Network is responsible for countless friendships and relationships, and a significant number of members and former members have left glowing testimonials about their experience.

“The saga of searching has come to an end, and the new journey of companionship has begun. Your Conscious Dating Network provided the vehicle for the Universe to bring [us] together,” Ashley wrote in a testimonial. “The compatibility between Cory and myself is uncanny.”

It only took a few email exchanges between Elaine and Tony to spark a strong connection. The couple started by messaging through the Conscious Dating Network, then they began FaceTiming every night, and finally they met in person in New York City.

“Our meeting was everything we had hoped it would be. We connected both physically and spiritually,” Elaine said. “We spent three wondrous days together in NYC, holding hands everywhere we went, hugging and kissing at every red light.  We were so tuned into the other.”

During that whirlwind weekend, the couple pledged their love to one another and established a strong and loving relationship. A year later, they were married in a civil ceremony in Hawaii’s Volcano National Park. The married couple have come a long way since joining a spiritual dating site!

“We depart your site with hearts overflowing in thanks and gratitude,” Elaine and Tony said. “We are quintessential Twin Flames [and] highly polished mirrors of each other.”

Such positive feedback is great motivation for the ConsciousMatch team to continue growing the membership, adding new features, and spreading the word about this heart-to-heart network.

While not every match on ConsciousMatch ends in marriage, it can spark an engaging conversation or a heartfelt friendship, and the team considers those worthwhile success stories as well.

ConsciousMatch Cultivates an Enlightened Community

Over the last 20 years, Jill Crosby has created avenues for strengthening relationships, healing hearts, and expressing ideals without fearing judgment or rejection. The Conscious Dating Network maintains a positive and spiritual place where authentic people can be themselves.

ConsciousMatch is free to join, and the membership includes a fast track into a spiritual world that spans across several domain names. ConsciousMatch members will be able to see profiles on SpiritualSingles, GreenSingles, and other sister sites, and their online dating options will be that much richer thanks to the Conscious Dating Network.

If you’re looking for a spiritual partner, ConsciousMatch can be your guide and make introductions to single people who come from all walks of life but share a common understanding and outlook on the world.

“Since the year 2000 we have been fortunate enough to provide the venue for thousands of singles to become couples, find poly partners, and make life-long, deep friendships,” according to the ConsciousMatch website. “This is the most rewarding part of our work and continues to motivate and inspire other members as well as our Conscious Dating Network team behind the scenes.”
