As with most dating sites, you must create a profile before seeing what it really has to offer. You start off with a focus on fitness. You must choose three activities right off the bat and a skill level for each. After all, you wouldn’t want to go rock climbing with a dead weight tied to your back, would you? From there, there’s a multipage process that must be completed before you get the keys to the FitnessSingles kingdom.

"There's a wide range of search options available to everyone on Fitness Singles."

There's a wide range of search options available to everyone on Fitness Singles. As you might expect, there’s a large choice of sporting options to ensure you can find the right activity partner. It also has a keyword search. Appearance seems to have a special emphasis on this site, but remember that the majority of us think we're better looking than we really are. For your profile, aim high!

When it comes to contact options beyond email, the site only has one and that's instant messaging. It does include video and audio options though. You only need one quick contact option to make a site work for you. All the same, without group chat rooms or message boards, the site loses out on creating a sense of community.

There are several significant drawbacks to the site. It has seen a big decline in visitors to its pages. I imagine it's due to the second issue I have with the site, which is that you cannot reply to messages for free, even if they come from paid subscribers.

The final nail in the coffin is that despite the decline in surfers, they've raised the price by about 30 percent since its launch. The current monthly fee isn't overly pricey by any means, but a price increase hardly seems a good way to entice renewed interest. Fitness Singles needs to rethink its strategy if it wants its members' ranks back to the picture of health.
