Why Online Matchmaking

The trend towards finding a partner online through matchmaking sites has increased at a fast rate in the last few years. As Internet becomes more available in Indian households, the use of the Internet to meet new people is going to accelerate even further. There are number of reasons why people prefer to choose this method to look for a spouse:

Large number of people 

Internet matrimony sites like shaadi.com, bharatmatrimony.com, jeevansathi.com, etc. have lakhs of users. Therefore, the number of people that you might find interesting and who could be a good fit for you is large, much larger than the potential people you could come in contact with through your everyday social circle and relatives.

Low cost, and ease of use

Posting ones profile and browsing through potential members online is easy. It is far more convenient and efficient than giving advertisement in newspapers or through postal (snail!) mail. The cost per word on the Internet in comparison to Newspaper ads is very low, and you have the possibility of putting many photos as well (a very important part of your profile). Your Internet ad is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, unlike to newspaper, which has a new edition everyday. If you were a run a 200 word profile and 2 photo ad everyday for 1 month, you will end up paying more than one lakh rupees! By comparison, a matrimony site subscription costs only a few hundred rupees per month. 

The matrimony sites also capture a lot of important information about you in a very efficient format, e.g.:  Manglik (yes or no) ,Eating habits ( veg/non veg), Physical stats, height, weight, etc. Publishing these details in a Newspaper ad would increase your profile size from 200 to 500 words, and would be even more costly!

Global reach

Internet matrimony sites are accessible world wide, so you can come in touch with interesting people anywhere in the world! You are not just limited to one town, city or state or even your country -there are a lot of NRI profiles in Indian matrimonial sites. You can look for a partner in the US or Australia or Canada.

Community specific coverage

The matrimony sites have dedicated pages for regional languages like Telugu, Tamil, Marathi etc. which make searching for partner in one's community easier.

Less stressful

Posting one's profile on the Internet and finding a match is much easier and is much less stressful trying to meet new people through your social circle and relatives.
