Russian Dating Site Reviews
With the new age of technology, online dating has become commonplace. I thought I had tried every site out there, until recently when I discovered the world of international online dating.
Specifically, I have enjoyed several quality sites that provide access to the most interesting and desirable Russian women. These women are searching out international husbands not because they wish to move to another country or become a wealthy housewife, but because there are simply not enough available men in Russia (statistics taken in 2011 show that there are 10 million more Russian women than men seeking a partner for marriage).
Below are several quality Russian dating site reviews, starting with my favorite:
ANASTASIADATE.COM
Anastasia Date was by far the best site for meeting Russian women. First, you can search and review the profiles of 20,000 quality Russian women for free. Once you are ready to communicate with a woman, you are provided a variety of options to suit your personal needs and schedule.
The company provides a correspondence system for sending letters (and a picture, if you would like), which includes verification of the woman’s personal and contact information and a translation of the letter into Russian.
You can also choose to chat real time on the website, with or without live video. If an old-fashion phone call is preferable, “Anastasia Date” also provides a phone introduction service, which can be booked in advance or used at the spur of the moment.
Once you are ready to visit one or more of these women in their beautiful country, Anastasia can provide an apartment rental service and even arrange your date. If your goal is to meet as many women as possible on your trip, they can provide a “Romance Tour” that many members have noted was how they found their wife and soul mate.
Just to be sure you are comfortable communicating with the women (and know how to make your move when you are ready), Anastasiadate.com even boasts a chief romance officer and celebrity wingman, Antonio Sobato Junior. A former Calvin Klein model, soap star and celebrity playboy (dating women such as Pamela Anderson, Jennifer love Hewitt and Madonna), his blog is titled “Tips From a Celebrity Wingman”. He utilizes his wealth of experience in dating women from all over the world, to provide you the inside scoop on how to get the attention of an international woman.
The cost of connecting with women on Anastasiadate.com depends entirely on how many women you wish to communicate with, how you prefer to communicate, etc. There are so many options, you will just have to check it out yourself!
APRETTYWOMAN.COM
A pretty woman started in 1994 setting up meetings with American men and Russian women through their dating service in Florida.
In 1995 they began their website, aprettywoman.com, and later opened offices in Port Elizabeth, South Africa and the Ukraine. They carefully select the women they represent, choosing less than 40% of all applicants to the agency.
Their website is designed with two “Galleries” of women: a Platinum Gallery with 5,000 of the most charming, beautiful and well educated women in Russia; and a Gold Gallery with another 10,000 quality women.
You can search the galleries and view basic profiles and pictures for free. However, if you want to contact them you must purchase a monthly membership.
To contact women in the Gold Gallery, you must purchase a gold membership that costs between $19.95 for three months and $289 for one year. A platinum membership, which includes access to both the gold and platinum galleries, costs $49.95 for three months and $479 for one year.
ELENASMODELS.COM
Established in 1999, elenasmodels.com provides a comprehensive range of services for men and women seeking a partner abroad. With more than 1,000 new users every week, they offer a wide range of services designed to fit your needs in the search for a suitable partner, including a database search, personal listings, tours and personalized matchmaking.
The founder started the site after leaving Russia to marry an American man. She found the process so successful that she wanted to make it possible for her friends back in Russia to meet American men as well. Her blog contains useful information for both men and women seeking an international relationship that could lead to marriage.
A silver membership at Elenasmodels.com (which allows you to search the entire database of woman) is free. No credit card is necessary, but you do have to provide your email address. When you are ready to communicate with a specific woman, you can exchange unlimited emails and contact information for $15. If you want to communicate with more than one person, you can purchase a package that allows you to contact 10 women for $49. For more extensive services, you can look into a gold or platinum membership.
