DatingDirect Paid Membership Features

Editor's Note: I had to hide the members' pictures and usernames for legal and privacy reasons in some of the screenshots below. The screenshots are meant to give you an overall idea of what you'll experience with the dating service. Rest assured that you'll see real pictures of singles with usernames when you open an account!
Contacting Members

This is an example search result page with your paid membership. Notice that each result includes a short ad of the member for your quick review.

Send Email

Upon clicking on the email icon from any search result page or My Favourites page, you'll be redirected to this page for composing your email to the particular member.
Chat one-to-one

Upon clicking on the chat icon from any search result page or My Favourites page, the Instant Messenger window will pop up.

You can also make video calls using your webcam.
Available/Unavailable

You can switch to available/unavailabe mode from any page of your account. You can operate on invisible mode by appearing offline to others while you're online.
Intro Video

Watch a fellow single's video introduction.

I've noticed in my review that the majority of singles do not post video intro of themselves. If you have a webcam, you can very easily record a short video of yourself using DatingDirect's interface and upload to your profile. This will definitely increase your chances of being contacted by compatible singles.
