Scoring Dorset dating agencies

Local Brand Search on Google

Ideally dating agencies should publish local figures, but none that we know of do so. What is easier to find, is the number of local people who search on google for the brands. This is a very fair measure of local interest in a site and includes both people searching for a brand for the first time as well as existing memebers who want to revisit their profiles. In Dorset we can see that several of the major brands have a substantial presence, but bear in mind that most of the traffic displayed here comes from the Bournemouth Poole urban area.

How well visited is a site?

At a national level we can also track visitor numbers to sites. This statistic may not reflect membership numbers, but it does provide a idea of a sites overall popularity.

The site itself

The quality of visuals and usability, as well as the cost of a service also contribute to our scoring process. You can see complete reviews of all the big UK firms at our home page.

Dating agencies Dorset: Make sure you also do your own research

As well as making the most of our recommendations we also advise that you look through a site thoroughly yourself before you pay for a upgrade. Whatever your location, you should expect a fair local level of service from a large dating agency. Dating agencies in Dorset are no exception and if, when you register with one, you can't see high numbers of local singles, then know that you should be giving up there and then. Many firms which don't show this information before you commit to a subscription, do so because they don't have local singles on databank. Don't trust sites like this. A decent site will permit you to view local matches before you buy.

Dating agencies Dorset:A look at Dorset singles

Dating-experts has assembled data from the ONS that supplies an idea of local singles numbers, and the gender breakdown of that group.

  • 46% of a total of roughly 345600 residents of Dorset are single
  • That's about 158100 people not legally registered as in a marriage or partnership, of which 46% are male and 54% are female

Especially large numbers of more elderly singles live in Dorset (43% of Dorset singles are over 50). So its a great county for second chances. Whatever your age though, there are some good local services out there to help you find the right one

Once in a while a dating agency will urge you to broaden your criteria beyond your local area and search by region. At dating-experts we think this shouldn't be necessary, nevertheless, so you know, here are some regional info:

  • The South West has 50.8% of its population registered as single. Slightly below national averages
  • 6.1% more singles are female than male. Thats the joint highest ration of men to women in the country (honour shared with the South East of England)
