You can also use your Facebook profile for this purpose, giving the website an increased dimension and lowering the chance of fake profiles. This Zoosk.com review will help you to learn about the different features along with the strengths and weaknesses of the website.

Zoosk.com Main Features Reviewed

  • Syncing with Other Apps

The website offers you to use the data which you have already displayed on your Facebook profile. When you connect it, the basic information including the profile picture, the ‘about you’ text, your likes and dislikes are automatically displayed on the Zoosk.com profile. You can always edit it as per your preference before updating the profile.

  • Testimonial and the Ice Breaker Question

The website allows you to ask your friends to write testimonials for you. This gives a brief intro about your personality to the prospective dates and matches. Another interesting section is the icebreaker question where the other members are given a chance to respond to something when they aren’t sure about what to say.

  • Strong Approval Process

All the images and text are moderated before they are uploaded to a website. They have a proper approval process and inappropriate content doesn’t make it through their filters. This process can take a few minutes or hours before getting completed.

  • Safety for the Members

Even if you link your Facebook account to your Zoosk.com profile, the members will not be able to access that Facebook page. However, as you do the linking process, make sure you do understand what information will be shared on the russian dating platform. Also, be aware that notifications will be enabled on your Facebook and a confirmation posted on your wall.

  • Boosts

Who likes to hear that they are not popular with the masses? When you first sign-up, your popularity level on the website will be something around 6,423,753. In order to keep the ranking up, you would have to buy coins so that your profile is one of the featured ones. This is another way of paying money for being more visible to the other members.

  • Text Alerts

When someone tries to contact you through the website, you will automatically be notified through a text message alert.

  • Messenger and Chatting

There is a downloadable messenger for the members to connect with each other and share some healthy conversation. This feature is not free of cost and members with an unpaid subscription will not be able to see the messages sent to them.

  • Exchanging Emails

This is another strong feature facilitating communication and lets the members send messages to each other. However, the basic members are only allowed to read one message from each person. The feature is criticized in many Zoosk.com reviews as there is no way for the free members to contact each other.

Zoosk.com Pros and Cons Reviewed

Pros
  • The setup process is pretty simple and one can even use the Facebook profile to update all the relevant information.

  • It is a large network consisting of more than 30 million users around the world.

Cons
  • The online dating website is only free to move through different profiles. As soon as you contact someone, the payment needs to be done for advanced membership.

  • There is no proper verification for the profile creation process as syncing with Facebook doesn’t provide any authenticity.

  • There are millions of fake profiles on Facebook as well, thus, Zoosk.com is a scam as it doesn’t require any strong proof of the identity of the user.

  • The website does offer a number of features but none of them can be enjoyed free of cost.

  • Many of the messages received in the inbox are computer generated, thus, your $120 fee gets wasted.

Zoosk.com Prices Reviewed

The website has been criticized in a number of Zoosk.com reviews regarding the subscription payment required to access even the most basic features. Most of the times, this fee renders to be useless for the user as he has to pay it to read scam messages or communicate with fake profiles.

Overall: Is Zoosk.com a Scam or Trusted Site?

Because of the high ratio of fake profiles and frequent scam messages sent by the website itself, it is not a trusted platform to find a dream match for yourself. The users often complain about the high rates charged for accessing different features and the few genuine profiles actually available to find a prospective partner for themselves. Thus, this Zoosk.com review will give a thumbs down to the website.

I can not upload a lot of my photos. I travel a lot and I want to tell people about it and find men with the same interests.

After the divorce, I visited different dating sites to find a new love but decided to stay here. There are many different profiles and these girls are amazing. So far, I'm not ready for a serious relationship, but a pleasant platform for communication is very pleasing to me.

According to the experience I have had with Zoosk.com for the three weeks that I have been using this site, it is simply amazing. It is fantastic it depicts professionalism with the way they deal with users and there are plenty of women to chat with. After liking with so many people I ended up clicking very extraordinarily with the one I have been looking for and actually been wondering where she is. We usually talk for many hours non-stop and I even seem happier nowadays. We are planning on meeting very soon and probably, we will have the best date of our lives. So far I believe her profile is real because everything seems to be going well. It is like we both dived into Zoosk.com looking for each other. It seems to completely work for me, so it should for you too. Furthermore, with positivity, things always seem to go right. I am happy with my time in Zoosk.com so far.

I found the love of life the second time I used this site. At the age of 34, I was fully convinced that there is no perfect man for me, and I am destined be alone. At this time, I thought of giving a last try to this website, and, wooohhhh I met a really wonderful Italian guy, who was everything that I wanted. I am so thankful to God that I waited for him, and never lost my patience, and…now here I am….about to get married to the most perfect man in the World. It is true that you have to kiss a few frogs to find your prince, and now because of zoosk I have finally found my prince. And, now I will say goodbye to all these dating websites.

First of all a bigggg thanks to zoosk.com….had it not been zoosk I would have met the love of my life. Although, I and my fiancé, whom I met on Zoosk stay only 2 miles from each other, still we had never met each other before, and had no common friends, and thus had no chance of meeting each other had it not been zoosk. This website bought us together, and now I cannot even imagine my life without her. However, I now I have to delete my account from all the dating websites

After months of being on this site, and, not finding any good date, I cancelled by subscription. However, I was charged by this site, even after I cancelled my subscription in time. After complaining a several times, I was refunded half of my subscription fee. But, when I tried contacting them again to get full refund, there was no response from their side, and none of my mails were answered. All this has pissed me off really big, and I am looking to complain to the authorities regarding this.

Terrible website that I have come across. First of all they charge you so much, and then they charge even after you have cancelled your subscription. Apparently they have a policy to renew the subscription 7 days before the actual subscription date. And, can just use your card anytime they want to, without your permission. Once I removed my card, I received a message stating that my £ 50 were due, and I needed to clear my dues immediately. All this is seriously horrible, and I would never recommend this app to anyone.

I registered myself on Zoosk some 3 months back, and since then I have got numerous messages from perverts. It looks like most of the men on this website are just looking for “one night stands”, and no one is interested in a real relationship. I have been contacted by men who just want my cell numbers, and send me pics of their penises. I don’t understand how people can be this desperate. And, it is not only about this site, there are perverts everywhere.

I have been on zoosk with no luck. I had never thought that I would have to date online in order to find a partner for me. I always used to make fun of people who dated online, I used to see them as desperate, and looking for shortcuts. But, after being single at 45, and being unlucky in love, I had no other choice than to get myself registered on zoosk, but, even after dating numerous women I have not been able to find my ideal partner. Now, I feel that online dating is not for me, but it really difficult to find a partner in this world of online dating. However, we should all try our best, not lose hope, and try to find the partner in the real life itself. This way at least we will know something about the person whom we are dating.
