The Short Version: In the last couple years, SDating.co.uk has made a name for itself as a totally free, highly functional, and mobile-friendly dating platform. This results-driven dating site offers singles the chance to make authentic connections with matches in the UK, the US, and Australia. SDating’s innovative design and free chat features facilitate online romance between men and women of all ages and backgrounds. If you don’t know what to say to your online crush, you can always send a wink, a like, or an invite to meet to show your interest. On SDating, members can communicate with one another and explore their dating options until they find that special someone.

It’s hard to meet people, much less date anyone, when you’re new in town and don’t have any established ties in the community. Many singles wind up spending long nights alone at home simply because they don’t have an avenue to forge connections and develop relationships with their neighbors.

Aivaras Fofonovas experienced this problem firsthand while living abroad. He and his friends were migrants who didn’t always have the opportunity, knowledge, or resources to seek out dates in an unfamiliar city. Even people who are socially savvy and speak the language can have difficulty making time to scout out a popular bar or coffee shop where they can meet people.

Fortunately, today’s technology allows daters to engage with one another more easily than ever before. Online dating has become the go-to solution for millions of singles seeking to add some zest to their affairs. Aivaras told us that dating websites are currently “the best way for people to find their own girlfriend or boyfriend,” and he intends to help people make that connection on a free and fun dating site known as SDating.co.uk.

On SDating.co.uk, free members start flirtatious conversations and build lasting relationships.

The site launched in 2015 to give singles an effective remedy to their dating woes. You won’t find any fake profiles or cheesy marketing ploys on this platform. It’s a straight-up space designed to foster and encourage budding relationships.

SDating has an intuitive interface that’s easy to navigate and fun to use. You can join and chat for free, customizing your match filters to see if anyone special catches your eye. The dating network, which is available on any PC or mobile device, includes single men and women from all around the world. Every day, its membership grows as more people hear about the above-average functionality and design of the dating site.

“I hope people will enjoy SDating and will find their life partner or friends with the help of the site,” Aivaras said. “There aren’t a lot of members, but we pride ourselves in the fact that all our members are genuine members.”

Wink at Your Online Crush & Start a Conversation

It took me less than a minute to sign up to SDating and fill out my profile. This process is so easy and straightforward that you’ll be flirting in no time. All it takes is a valid email address and few personal details to get started. And, best of all, it’s 100% free to join and chat for an unlimited period of time.

Most SDating members live in the US or the UK, and the user base has a fairly even split between men (48%) and women (52%). Anyone 18 or older is welcome on the dating site, so whether you’re a 20-something or a 60-something, you can find your match here.

SDating profiles offer a clean and concise look at a person’s interests, appearance, and background.

“There’s a high percentage of satisfaction among members,” Aivaras told us. “The fact that they keep using the site is testament to its design and easy navigation — not to mention all the additional information on the site about how to date online safely.”

Once you’ve completed the required fields on your profile (location, relationship status, interests, etc.), you can move on to write a personalized bio (aka Essay), describe your ideal match, or start searching using customizable filters.

Reading and sending messages is free on the site, and you can also like, wink, and invite to meet someone special online. If you really like the person, you can add him or her to your favorites list, which is like putting someone on speed dial in the online dating world. Basically, bookmarking profiles makes it easier to find them again so you can keep in contact with your top crushes.

If you want to view your mutual likes or see members who have invited you on a date, you have to upgrade your profile to an Elite VIP membership plan, which can cost as little as five pounds per month. However, all free memberships come with unlimited communication, so you don’t have to pay anything to make a sincere connection with someone on SDating.

SpeedMatch: A Quick & Easy Way to Attract Prospective Dates

One of the best features on SDating is SpeedMatch, which recommends one profile at a time and encourages members to like, wink at, bookmark, or invite to meet that person. You can pass on the profile by clicking the word next. On SpeedMatch, your gut instincts are what matters, so you only see the potential match’s username, age, and location. And a photo, of course.

Free members can only submit one Hot Personal Post at a time so choose your words wisely.

Singles use the SpeedMatch feature to browse through a variety of date prospects within a short time frame. It’s a popular way to mix up your online dating experience and match with someone on the site.

Another way to attract attention on SDating is by writing a Hot Personal Post. This public message will be seen by hundreds of potential matches for up to 96 hours. It’s basically free advertising, and you can publish personalized posts to highlight who you are and what you’re looking for on the site.

Hot Personal Posts offer a targeted way to raise your dating profile on SDating. “This helps members get quick match results,” Aivaras explained.

SDating Fosters a Growing International Membership

Although SDating is still in its infancy, the site shows great promise. Its ingeniously simple design is both functional and eye-catching, making it easy to navigate the dating site and find romance. Whether you’re interested in meeting new friends or love interests, SDating can jump-start your personal life within a few clicks.

Aivaras told us he plans to release the SDating app in the not-too-distant future so mobile daters can access the platform’s chat and match features from anywhere. The new app will further expand the UK-based dating network’s reach and give singles the tools they need to make a friend, go on a date, and build a relationship that lasts a lifetime.

“I get a lot of satisfaction from knowing that I am helping to bring people from all walks of life together,” Aivaras said. “SDating increases the chances of meeting that special someone.”
