It uses scientific data and personality trait analysis to add some order to the chaotic dating world, rather than just showing nearby singles in your age range as many other dating apps do.
While eHarmony may not be the best choice for daters looking for short-term relationships or “hook-up” type dates, it is a promising option for marriage-minded singles aiming to find a compatible partner.
Although users will probably get more out of their online dating experience as a premium member; the free membership only offers limited communication, but still allows users a chance to access eHarmony, build a profile, and get an idea of their potential match opportunities

The popular online dating site eHarmony claims that its matching methods are both successful and scientific. But a closer look at the evidence suggests otherwise.
As long as there are lonely hearts there will be a market for matchmakers. The emergence of the Internet has of course revolutionized many things, and the search for compatible mates is no exception. Online dating is a huge business, with dozens of websites offering people the chance to find love in cyberspace.
Like many services for which there is competition, online dating sites struggle to distinguish their services from all the others. After all, the premise is pretty basic: men and women searching for each other based upon their interests and profiles. There are only so many ways to �sex up� the process (so to speak); there’s really not a lot of room for �new and improved� ways of connecting people.
However there is one important area in which online dating services try to compete: better ways of matching clients. Like many other businesses, online dating sites like to adopt the veneer of scientific validity. Websites such as eHarmony, True, and Chemistry claim to use science to help people find compatible partners and, eventually, love. But how good is the evidence for their claims?
eHarmony’s Scientific Claims
Perhaps the best-known dating service claiming to mix science with seduction is eHarmony. According to the company’s website, its of clinical experts . . . is rooted in classical psychometric theory-which uses well-established standards to measure mental abilities and traits in a reliable way.� The site makes direct and explicit claims about the scientific validity of its matching program, which it calls a �Compatibility Matching System.� On the website under a section titled �Compatibility Science,� eHarmony states:
Based on his thirty-five years of marriage counseling and studies of thousands of married couples, eHarmony founder Dr. Neil Clark Warren exhaustively researched what makes marriages succeed and fail. His findings? Chemistry is not enough. . . . By studying the difference between happy and unhappy of researchers found 29 Dimensions [a registered trademark] that help predict great relationships. These compatibility dimensions include: Core traits like emotional temperament, adaptability, curiosity, and intellect; values and beliefs, such as spirituality and feelings about children; and relationship skills, such as conflict resolution. (eHarmony 2011a)
Again appealing to the authority of science, the following paragraph explains how the �Science of Compatibility� is used by eHarmony: �Our Compatibility Matching System matches you by taking into account the 29 Dimensions of Compatibility that help predict the potential for relationship success. The results are single matches unlike anything you will find anywhere else.�
