I have traveled in and out of Argentina for more than a decade and have tried just about every dating site and app that exists. Some are really good, and some are really bad. I’ll go over the ones I had the most success with in this post.
If you’re in a hurry and don’t have time to read my detailed descriptions of each website, here is my quick list of the top 3 dating sites in Argentina. For those of you who have the time, keep reading.
Trying a dating site or app is the most efficient way to find love these days, especially if you aren’t from Argentina.
The most popular dating app in Argentina is Tinder (by a long shot), but I didn’t really have much success with it when I used it in Buenos Aires. It is the best option if you are looking for a short term hookup, but if you are looking for something long term, I recommend checking out the more serious dating sites which I will describe below.
I found success with these sites while I was in Buenos Aires, but you should also find success in some of the other major cities in Argentina, like Córdoba, Rosario, and Mendoza.
Oh yeah, and one more thing before I dive into the descriptions. Having spent a decent amount of time in Buenos Aires, Argentina as well as the neighboring countries of Brazil and Colombia, I can tell you that South America has some of the most beautiful women on the planet. And while Argentina does not have the demographic depth that is prevalent in the major cities of those two other South American countries, I have some friends who would argue with me for days why Argentina has the most beautiful women (and men) of any country in the world.
I have a profile on Latin American Cupid, and it is a good option for Argentina as well as other countries in South America (namely Peru, Panama, etc). It wasn’t always this way. When the site started out, the number of Argentinians was few and far between. However, the Cupid Media dating site brand is second-to-none, and it is definitely worth setting up a free profile and trying your luck while you are in Argentina.
The sign up process is just like other sites from the Cupid Media brand. After you link your Facebook account or enter your e-mail, you enter standard profile information, including gender, age, and where you are located.
I would recommend taking some time to fill out your entire profile and not rushing through it. The better and more thorough your profile, the better chance you will have of finding potential matches. The whole process of filling out your profile is aided by the site’s periodic notifications to complete the rest of your profile in order to continue.
The thing I like about the search is that you can get highly specific and really filter out for what you want and don’t want. For example, if you are looking for someone who has a specific age, marital status, religion, or lifestyle preference (e.g. smoker, drinker, etc.), you can do that. You can also filter the search results by location, so you don’t end up seeing people who might live over 500 miles from where you are.
The way you message on Latin American Cupid is by using their basic messaging system. To show interest in someone, you can click a heart icon on their profile, but in order to initiate a message you will need to purchase a subscription, which in my view is worth the extra money as you can not only send messages freely, but you have a whole host of other features which I’ll get into below..
Match Argentina was launched in 2002 and is the second best dating site in Argentina. With over 300, 000 profiles, Match Argentina has a dependable, user-friendly website that mirrors its parent site Match.com.
If you’re interested in joining Match Argentina, you can sign up for the site relatively quickly. Creating a member profile requires you to indicate your gender, date of birth and the gender of candidates with whom you would prefer to be matched.
After these steps are completed, you will be prompted to respond to a series of questions regarding your interests, education, personality traits, and lifestyle. You will also be asked to indicate the qualities and traits that you seek in your preferred match.
1. The first is a basic search, which involves locating members based on similar criteria such as shared birthdays, mutual matches and perfect matches.
2. An advanced search, on the other hand, allows you to use filters to choose members with certain physical attributes or who are within a specified age range or location.
3. The third way of locating matches is the Shuffle format. This format presents you with random profiles to like or dislike. Match Argentina then notifies you if there is a mutual match.
While you can search profiles and send an unlimited number of Flirts to members free of charge, you are not able to correspond with another member unless you pay to become a premium member. Premium membership also allows you to message and chat with other members who are online.
OkCupid is a no-cost dating website that reaches an international audience. Using an expansive matching system based on questions and complex algorithms, the best possible matches are made. It’s a last chance dating option for Argentina.
With a user base that reaches close to 30 million and no-sign-up fee, there are advantages and disadvantages. With a vast number of users, you stand a greater chance of finding your ideal match. However, the term “free, ” also attracts suspect users and spammers.
Although it may take a while to sift through the profiles, with a Godzilla-like effort, OKCupid may produce what you’re looking for in the way of serious relationships, hookups and everything else in between.
You can register using your Facebook account or enter your standard information manually. You’ll then be guided to choose a username and password. You will also be instructed to write a brief description about yourself and answer five questions about your personality.
To give OKCupid a better idea of the type of match you may be in search of, you can “Like” 3 profiles. Once complete, you’ll be ready to browse other users for free.
The amount of time it takes to complete the initial process is dependent on you. With your basic stats, uploaded photos, thousands of questions to answer and 8 prompts to navigate, you have the option to really make your profile shine. Others may find the process a bit tedious and opt to make their profile short and sweet.
The general browsing feature at OkCupid is easy. While perusing the other profiles, you’ll see their username, photo, location, age and match, or enemy percentage.
The final two stats signify OkCupid’s algorithm process. This algorithm allows users to see how you compare or contrast based on your answered questions.
The Quickmatch feature provides you with the option to dismiss or like the profile. You’ll both be notified if there is a match.
In order to communicate with other members on OKCupid, you can like someone. Premium membership provides you with the option to see who has liked you.
The online message feature allows users to write text for free. You can also be more indirect and visit someone’s profile. Each time you visit a user’s profile, that member is notified.
OkCupid offers other unique features such as their question matching. These questions can range from whether you’re a morning person to something sexual such as fetishes. For every question answered, you’ll need to specify answers that you would accept from other users, and its importance.
You’ll find thousands of questions to select from. The more that you answer, the better chance you have of finding your match.
The first thing you should do is sign up for one of the sites above. Once you have done that, start sending out messages to other members who pique your interest. Dating is a numbers game, so be sure to be persistent! Don’t give up if you aren’t receiving a lot of responses. You have to plant a lot of seeds in order to get success.
In my e-book, Online Dating Success: How to Find Love Anywhere in the World, I go into detail about how to set up a profile, what I recommend writing for your initial and follow up messages, when to ask the woman/man you’re interested in to go offline for a date, and more.
