DoULike.com

Check out what DoULike.com has to Offer You

DoULike.com is an online dating service that caters to all kinds of people trying to find love and I genuinely believe that they do in fact try to do this. So, how does DoULike.com work? Well, the whole premise of the website is that when you sign up, you can upload a photo of yourself to your profile and then, get liking! Your profile seems to be scored on popularity level and the more profiles you vote on the higher your score gets and the more popular you become. As you gain popularity this means that your profile is shown more times and as a result, increases the exposure you get on the site and thus increases the number of likes you receive. It is a pretty simple process and the layout of the site does make this clear. However, the aesthetics of the site seem to be an outdated version of the popular dating app called Tinder. The setup is that you can like a person’s profile or click “next” and that will move you straight onto the next profile, much like Tinder. And whilst the front page of the website looks rather smart and impressive, that is all it is… smart looking. When you try to register on the front page, the link to finish the process doesn’t work and you are forced to sign up through a separate link located at the very bottom of the page.

Pros of DoULike.com

Some pros of this website is that is easy to use and once you have signed up it is incredibly easy to get the hang of using it, and you quickly find yourself hooked on clicking through the profiles. I also like the popularity aspect on the profiles, as this shows who is actively using their account and who isn’t as devoted. So this also gives you an idea of how frequently you may get a response from someone. Another pro is that you can do quite a bit without having to pay for one of the upgrade packages, so you do get a good chance to use and interact with the site before you decide to commit to it in any way.

Cons of DoULike.com

On the other hand, some cons of the website are how long it takes to actually get signed up. For starters, you are set back by the time it takes to try the signing up section on the front page, and you are quickly forced to realize that it’s a dud and will not work. Then you have to search the page to find another way in. Once you have done this and you find another place to sign up, they claim to send you a confirmation email, although I never received this and after many attempts to have it resent, I had to give up and do it through my Facebook profile instead. Another con is that without paying for the star package you cannot see who has viewed your profile and who has liked you, however, this is quite a minor thing as you will be told if you receive a match so that’s the main thing that matters. I also have an issue with the pricing plans for the upgraded package as they mask a very bad price in a broken down reasonable payment plan! And as far as I can see, it doesn’t seem to be worth the extortionate price.

REGISTRATION PROCESS

As I have already expressed the registration/signup process is the most aggravating part of the site. Aforementioned earlier in this review, the initial signup process on the site is a dud and doesn’t actually lead to anything and you have to scroll right down to the bottom of the page. To explain this further, when you get to the bottom of the website, you will need to click on an option that says “How it Works” and then from there you can finally sign up. Although, you will need to jump through a few hoops to get your confirmation email.

To the sites benefit, they also have an app for their dating service that you can get on both iOS and Android. Without a doubt, the app is far more superior to the website you would use on your laptop or computer. I believe that this is because the app will be a more popular version compared to a website – due to the convenience of it and the influence of mobile phones in this modern age. Logging into the app as an existing member was incredibly easy so I could not comment on the registering process on this format, but I imagine that it would have been easier than the website.

CREATION OF A PROFILE

Once you have registered on the site, creating your profile is incredibly easy. It is simply a matter of adding a photo and a biographical line if you wish, which adds a personal touch to your profile. And there you have it you now have a dating profile! Along with this you also have a string of queries under your name and picture of common questions such as eye color, religion, occupation etc. As well as this, other users can even request answers to these details if you are yet to answer them.

PRICING PLANS

So here is where the biggest issue lies, and not in the registering mishap or the outdated appearances but in the pricing plans. So let’s begin with what you can get for just the basic plan (FREE) account on their site:

Creation of profile

Upload of photos

Ability to like and skip profiles

However, I found that I was also able to message people, send gifts and view who I had matched with and who had liked my profile. Although that may have been a taster of what I could do and they were trying to encourage me to pay for those perks full-time. Now if you do want to pay for more perks then you become a “star member” and this entails:

Unlimited messages

See who has viewed your profile

See who voted like on your profile

Get more views as you will be suggested more on the site

Be shown on their star members section hall of fame that everyone seems to be able to view

I definitely would not recommend this; however, the payment plans come in three options:

1.Pay 0.33 pence (GBP) every day for six months, which they claim to be the best price. This means that after six months you would have payed around £59!

2.Pay 0.45 pence (GBP) every day for three months, which works out at about £40.

3.Pay 0.99 pence (GBP) every day for a month, which works out at about £30.

Now obviously, they advertised the most expensive as the most worthwhile one but I believe that the price they are asking for is simply a scam shrouded in a tiny daily instalment. If you really want to try the added benefits of a premium plan then I would recommend going for the month’s payment plan as you will lose the least amount of money this way.

SEARCH OPTIONS

Now the search options were a little less explicit, however, they are definitely there! So if you are wondering how to search on DoULike.com it may be because you missed it. Under the meet people tab, there is an option to refine the profiles shown to you through the specification of gender, age and ZIP code/city. This filtering can also be used on a mobile search through the app. However, this search by the city doesn’t seem to narrow it down at all as I was still being shown singles from other countries. You also cannot search profiles or search by username.

Messaging is another aspect of DoULlke.com that adds to its good features. There isn’t much to say about it that isn’t much different from other messaging services. You can see timestamps of the messages, you can see all of the messages you have received and sent, and you can also see when the person was last active. So how to message someone on DoULike.com is pretty self-explanatory as you are given the option to message someone when you are shown their profile, and it is easy to respond to messages sent to you. I do not have any issues or outstanding remarks on this aspect of the website.

HOW TO DELETE AN ACCOUNT

Finally, here is how to cancel your DoULike.com account from the website (as cancelling a subscription from the mobile app doesn’t seem to be possible). Simply go into settings and select “account cancellation” and from there you will be required to choose the reason as to why you want to cancel your DoULike.com subscription. If you choose something that requires a further explanation there is a box located just underneath for your comments. And then you click “cancel account”. Immediately your profile will be removed from public and your details will be kept on their database for a month just in case you wish to reinstate your account. All-in-all this was a simple process and done very quickly!

CONCLUSION

In conclusion, DoULike.com is not a website I would recommend as I feel that you could find better service from a far more popular site/app and also be shown a wider range of singles. It does have good features such as the popularity score, how easy it was to navigate and the features you can use without having to pay for the premium package. However, the outdated website, the slow and unreactive links and the unnecessarily coy pricing plans leave a foul taste in the mouth. Approach with caution but it’s not one you have to avoid completely, but it is definitely worth researching different types of dating sites before you decide on one to use and conquer.
