Fling touts itself as the "World's Best Adult Personals" - a grandiose claim that is difficult in some ways to confirm or deny, since what does it truly mean? How is it the best exactly, it doesn't have the most extras. It doesn't have much free access either. I'll say straightaway that my first impression is that it's simple despite having some extra features. If it's the best in any way, I'd say it's in a relatively intangible manner.
Obviously, I will be dissecting the site to its most basic elements and then I suppose you can decide on your own. Obviously, my analysis will produce a score that can be compared to other sites I've previously reviewed. As is always the case, success in sex dating depends somewhat on the participant regardless of how many members there are or how "real" those profiles are.
Signing up on Fling is simple. Few personal details are mandatory. One special feature that is interesting to me is the ability to choose a discreet profile option. That allows a photo to be posted but it is blurred out so no one can see the details unless they're added to a member's "blackbook" list of favorites that will unblock the profile's details.
Currently, Fling searches return over 100,000 females and over one million males. Over 37,000 women have pictures and over 210,000 men have images added to their profiles. You can search profiles free. However, results can't be enlarged beyond a preview pane. You have no way of contacting anyone or showing interest until you pay.
One you've paid for a membership, you can add someone to your blackbook of favorite profiles, invite that person to be a friend on your personal network of contacts and send an instant message, prewritten or freeform. However, unless the other person is a paying member or you pay extra each month, he or she won't be able to reply to you.
Therefore, to increase your chances of making a connection, you'd need to become a Gold member, which costs monthly about $10 more than the standard Silver paid membership. Gold members can receive replies from free profiles, as well as appearing at the top of all searches. Other premium services available for both the less expensive Silver members as well as of course the Gold, include live video chat, access to managing your blackbook of select profiles you liked as well as sending and reading messages.
One additional feature is a live cam service link. Anyone including non-paying visitors can check it out as it has free chats as well as premium-per-minute nude chats that aren't included in your Fling membership regardless of level.
