I remember writing a blog post a few months ago about the blossoming of Caribbean online dating sites. We had counted 10 active sites at that time. Since that post hypedates.com has bit the dust and is now in the dotcom dead pool. In the mean time for you single ladies and dudes,there is still:
Jampersonals.com
Jamaicasingles.com
Caribsingles.com
Caribcupid.com
Caribbeanmatch.com
Westindiandating.com
Caribbeansingles.org
Caribbeanconnections.org
Caribnu.com
99% of the Caribbean sites remain free to join with no premium upgrades to pay for. All are like that except www.caribbeanmatch.com which has a basic free registration but to fully interact with other singles the membership fee begins at US$19.95 a month. I wonder how they are doing? Surely not as great as Caribsingles.com which now has 56,645 members as of today.
HypeDate.com is dead, long live HypeConnect.com
The day after publishing that Hypedates.com had hit the dotcome dead pool, the owner emailed me an update. He said “no you are wrong…. HypeDates.com has gone social/online dating. The site has changed its name to HypeConnect.com. The site is taking a wholistic approach, combining both Social and Online dating in one large Interactive Community. It is probably the first of its kind in the Caribbean. It’s a new trend. In a few weeks, lots of new features will be added to site, so check it out.”
