Interracial Cupid Review

Interracial Cupid does a nice job straightaway of making sure that it shows many different interracial pairings. It has graphics showing all kinds of biracial couples. However, its services are targeted toward a global market. This fact may seem odd. At least it’s a bit unusual to some of us. I live in a cosmopolitan city. Interracial relationships don’t really require global connections in my mind. They hardly require even progressive thinking on my part.

Although it focuses on international matches, InterracialCupid has all the features of most other online dating sites. You can fill out a free profile. It requires that you complete all the details about yourself. You must write two essays. One describes you, and the other describes your potential partner. I appreciate its required info. The manually verified content can never be left blank. It can’t be filled in with gibberish, which guarantees a modicum of quality. There’s always a worthwhile amount of detail for each member’s description.

Furthermore, you can converse in chat rooms. You can use email or instant messaging, too. It is free to reply to a message. Obviously, you must upgrade to a paid subscription to initiate contact. If you spring for the more expensive membership option, it allows for some special advanced features. These include access to video profiles and messaging. You can also access an automatic translation option for your mailbox.

InterracialCupid.com lacks the usual localized search options, because you can’t search by zip or postal codes. You can search by country, province or state. There are some select cities to filter basic results. They show up after a broader search. The lack of the usual local search options hinders anyone hoping to meet someone truly close to home. The advanced search options only use additional information provided from other dropdown boxes filled out when creating profiles.

Another serious issue is the limited number of visitors to the site. There are too few visitors to be certain of how much success you might have in connecting with someone. Moreover, you can’t determine activity levels easily in your actual local area. I found this discouraging. A brief browse through the existing members impressed me, because the first 500 female profiles all had pics. However, that might be because anyone with a posted photo can use the chat rooms for free.

Two improvements would help the site. One is an improved search engine. The other is greater promotion of the site to attract more members. Since you don’t have to provide a zip or postal code, a change toward more localized searches entails a major overhaul of the system. Interracial Cupid is ideally suited to someone willing to meet on an international scale.
