1.	Visit JewishFriendFinder now!

Jewish Friend Finder advertises romance, marriage, faith and friendship as a few of the reasons for signing up. With over 85,000 members worldwide, Jewish Friend Finder offers an extensive global network of singles who share a common sense of faith and community. Although there is a huge (and expanding!) database of users, usually only a handful available for immediate chat. If you’re looking for a friendly, laid-back atmosphere, the chat-rooms are perfect for you! They are not intimidating what-so-ever. The “Chicken Soup” room begs users to “Come in and kibbetz and kvetch” for “a friendly diversion and pick me up.” Similarly, the “Yenta Room” and “Living Room” provide a very comfortable meeting ground for new and seasoned users alike.

The standard membership on Jewish Friend Finder is absolutely free, although there are some restrictions in place. Your account includes a personal profile, which is equip with an instant messaging service, chat room access and the ability to post and view video blogs and video greetings. The standard profile also includes a limited personal “Hotlist” of your favorite members, and a trial of the “Dove” service - which links you to potentially matching members. The restrictions are only in place to encourage users to upgrade to the Silver and Gold accounts, which enjoy more features and are still quite fairly priced.

The general layout of the site is both professional and accessible. There are no pop-up windows or messy advertisements in the margins. It has a clean, crisp aesthetic. The site welcomes suggestions for improvement, and provides contact information for a Customer Service department –which is refreshing to say the least.

Although they might not have the most scientific tools for matching singles, their site provides a personal arena for Jewish singles to meet and interact. Jewish Friend Finder has good search filters, approachable chat rooms, and free personal profiles. If you are a person of Jewish faith, looking for romance or companionship from another person of a similar background, Jewish Friend Finder is a great site to try out. If you’re tired of having your mother set you up with a “nice Jewish boy or girl”, then set yourself up with one! And hey, the fact that the membership is free doesn’t hurt much, either.
