Where to Start?

 
Muslim Singles, Matrimonial, Shaadi and Marriage Introductions Online - SingleMuslim.com

Start with yourself

The first thing to do is to know whether you are serious enough and willing to give your time, money, energy and feeling. Remember, your objective is to find a life partner. You must prepare yourself to face any possibilities. Finding partner online is not the same as traditional ways. It's similar to blind date but a little less painful than blind date. You have some information first hand before you get to meet the person.

You also must be brave and ready to be open about yourself and honest. You are going to present yourself to the whole world. You don't have to be shy or afraid because I'll explain later how to protect yourself. Ensure that you can control your feeling because you are going to meet several potential life partner along the process.

Always be confident about yourself. If you thought that your physical is your limitation, other may totally think otherwise. Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. It includes not only physical but your character. You may have some other qualities that can most attract other people. 

Do not worry about failure! It's a part of learning process.

 

What is Online Match Making?

Marriage website is basically similar to dating website where you can upload your profile for others to see and you can browse other people's profile. The different is on the purpose of the site, where, dating website is for those who want only to date, or short term relationship (sometimes sexual), while marriage or matchmaking website is for those who are looking for long term relationship or life partner.

Registration is required to join the websites and it usually has free and paid membership. Of course, there is significant limitation between free and paid membership. User can search for potential partner based on availability of photo, nationality, age and location.

There are numerous type of matrimonial sites. Some sites are specific on regional, religion and ethnic.

There are several issues regarding dating and matchmaking website that you need to consider. Please read the Protect Yourself section.

Based on my experience, for those who are serious on looking for marriage, matrimonial sites are better than dating sites. Dating sites are mostly joint by people who are looking for friendship and short term relationship. Marriage sites are more focus on marriage and people who are willing to spend some money on these sites are really serious about it. More chance for you to meet your life partner. However, if you would like to start with the dating sites, it's a good place to try.

Free or Paid Membership?

Free membership usually allows you to add everything in your profile. However there is a limitation on what other user can view, usually your contact information and sometimes your photo. You are also not able to view complete profile and message other users. So, it is worth to invest in paid membership since you are serious in looking for a life partner. There is little that you can do with free membership.

The price is not much compared to your branded pair of jeans. If you can afford to have one, then why not on something that will last for a lifetime. To summarize, it's a worthwhile investment.
