Another free online dating service has entered the picture.  Who Needs Cupid is a new free online dating service that is accepting memberships from members located in the United States.

Who Needs Cupid is absolutely free, and makes it easy to connect single men and single women in a friendly online environment, where serious singles can flirt, fall in love and create meaningful and long-lasting relationships.  For those who are concerned about the cost of online dating, Who Needs Cupid provides an alternative to the pay sites.  From first glance at this new free online dating site, Who Needs Cupid provides a relatively easy sign-up, matches delivered to your email, local personal ads and many advanced search options.

With the recession hitting the United States extremely hard, free online dating sites are seeing a surge in popularity.  However, it is extremely early in determining if these new sites will have any market pentration in a market that is dominated by one of the largest and most successful site in this niche – Plenty Of Fish.

However, given the recent decision by Plenty of Fish to offer premium pay services to its members, new niche dating sites that are advertiser supported and 100 percent free may have an opportunity to syphon off a portion of the larger sites membership.  Given the much more friendly user interfacee of Who Needs Cupid, it is extremely possible that this will be the case.  The user experience is definitely much better and the features are comparible, if not slightly more enhanced than that of Plenty of Fish.

If you are considering free online dating sites as an alternative and you live in the United States, Who Needs Cupid is worth the look.
