Singles Canada was formed in 1998 to fill the need for singles in Canada who were trying to find singles in their local area. In 2007 there was a surge in demand for single sites that catered to a larger variety of social networking groups. Singles Canada now offers sites that cater for Seniors, BBW, single parents, Asian, handicapped as well as requests for a gay only community. In 2008, Singles Canada launched a new design complete with state of the art systems, new web servers, back office services for faster registrations, profile approvals and payments. Patsy Copus, the President of Singles Canada has received thousands of emails from customers who have been very disappointed with free dating sites. Extensive research proved that a lot of people were turning to free dating sites because they could not justify paying to get a date. Free dating sites have become the prime target for scammers and spammers who are looking for vulnerable singles to take advantage of. Nigerian scammers have found free dating sites a virtual play ground for them to target and send emails conning singles out of thousands of dollars. The other down side to free dating sites is that they attract people that are not single but married or in relationships. Recent press releases regarding a free dating site announced that they had caught a criminal on their website. Singles looking to find a partner should know more about how free dating sites work and how they could be dangerous:

1) On Paid sites you are verified by paying with a credit card. The information on the profile is verified with the credit card information. Free dating sites are free, no card is needed, so you do not know who you are communicating with.

2) Nigerian scammers haunt free online dating sites. They know that singles are vulnerable and will take advantage. Men are the most vulnerable in free dating sites as women from Russia will contact them and have pre designed emails that they send in bulk telling the men that they are very handsome and that they fell in love with their profile right away. Within 2 emails they are asking for money to help them with visa's.

3) They say there are plenty of fish in the sea, but check some of the forums in these free dating sites and see how unsatisfied the customers are. There is NO customer support, the forum's are moderated by individuals who have not signed privacy agreements. Do you know how safe your information is?

4) Free dating sites are free because revenue is made from advertisers. Free dating sites attract thousands of people, you post information on these sites and it is shared with advertisers in order for the free site to generate an income. Your personal information is valuable to free sites, it is bought and sold to other companies. Singles Canada as a paid site does not share or sell information to any third party. Only employees have access to your personal information.

We have adopted a philosophy that every single person is entitled to know what happens to their personal information. That buy offering a great service, with great customer service and features that our customers will tell their friends and we will continue to grow.

How is Singles Canada different:

1) Great chatroom "Chatterbox", always great singles waiting to meet you.

2) We created an extremely exciting and feature-rich website complete with faster profile approvals, faster servers, and payments.

3) We have over 10 years experience in the dating business and thousands of testimonials from satisfied customers.

Our objective is to becoming the undisputed global leader in the singles social networking market.

We believe that we offer the best service and want to prove this to you. Singles Canada is always changing to keep up with the growing and diverse group of members. This means that we are, and will continue to be, the most attractive dating social network in Canada and will continue to cater to singles in the United States, England, and Australia as well.

We believe the future of online dating/social networking lies in sites being tailored to particular interests, hobbies, or clearly specified member needs but this can only be truly successful if managed via a large worldwide group (network) of sites like ourselves, dedicated to working to the same objectives as our customers.
