Membership Base
Flirt has a diverse membership, drawing singles across various racial, ethnic, national, educational, and economic demographics. There are over 1 million members worldwide at the site, with Flirt.com Australia having 80, 000 members.
The United States leads with the highest number of Flirt.com users at 26.59 percent, followed by Poland at 17.30 percent. The United Kingdom has 4.79 percent of the Flirt dating site membership. Therefore, the dating site has a good percentage of users from every region or continent of the world.
This review further establishes that a majority of members at Flirt.com are between 25 and 35 years. However, there are members who are older than this range — mostly men. Flirt has a high member activity, making it a good dating site for people who like online interactions.
Profiles
One of the few limitations of the site is the poor profile quality. All there is to see on a user’s profile at Flirt is their profile photo, gender, age, and location. There are sections for personal information, additional information, and photo gallery, but some members do not fill them up.
You are allowed to ask other members of Flirt.com to add more information on their profiles — if they have not filled up some of the sections. The dating site gives you suggestions of similar members that you can look into. If you want to use the ‘Looking for’ section, you’ll have to upgrade your account.
Members of Flirt can verify their profiles by calling the admin operators. The operators will ask you a few simple questions to validate your identity. Your profile on the website will remain invisible until you complete it. Besides, every photo you upload has to be verified by the admin.
Search Features on Flirt.com
You will be able to search for members based on several attributes. For example, you can search women based on their age, height, race, and location. The advanced search feature further refines your search. It means you can be more specific on the type of people you are looking for. The extended or advanced search is only available to premium members.
Messaging
There are two ways of initiating contact at Flirt. You can start by sending winks members, which is a free feature. You can also initiate contact by sending a direct message.
Once you sign up and become a new member, you have five free chats. Succeeding messages and replies are automatically locked for male members who have not upgraded their account on the dating site. The messages will be deleted automatically after 24 hours – if the accounts have not been upgraded by that time. Women can reply to messages for free.
There are a few fake profiles on the website. Flirt sends you notifications when a suspicious person messages you, telling you that the particular individual is under observation.
There is a ‘Like Gallery’, a feature that is similar to roulette-type matching activity. The feature presents you with a photo, which you can either like by clicking the heart symbol or dislike by clicking the ‘X’ button. You’ll also be able to see members who have liked you, the number of likes you’ve sent, and your successful matches.
