Our Review:
HotMatchup is a run of the mill adult dating site. Everything about it is pretty average and it doesn't do anything especially well. That's not to say it's no good, just that it is almost exactly the same as every other run of the mill adult dating site out there. However, there does seem to be quite a lot of members on the site, even if a few of them do look like paid models.
Creating a profile is about as uninspiring as it comes on HotMatchup. Fill in as many answers as you like to the standard questions on the form to provide as much information about yourself as you are comfortable with. As always, we recommend filling in as much as you can because it gives you more of a chance of someone wanting to get in touch. Many of the members on HotMatchup also have numerous photos and videos uploaded to their profile, which is also a sure-fire way of attracting plenty of attention.
Searching is, again, a pretty standard affair and you can basically search based on all of the information that can be filled into a profile. It is possible to search for only the profiles that contain naked pictures, but we couldn't possibly imagine why you would want to do that...Any members whose profiles you do look at will be notified through their "who's interested" list, and the same goes for anyone looking at yours. This is a handy way of seeing who you might have a chance of making a date with. Furthermore, if you are astrologically inclined it is also possible to find a match based on your horoscope!
To get in touch with other members you are limited to the in-built email system and we were disappointed to see no support for instant messaging or webcam chats. However, you can at least arrange a date and then see how things go from there.
HotMatchup also gives you access to its online magazine which contains lots of dating advice and articles on a variety of adult topics. While this does add some extra value to a membership we don't think it would be a deciding factor. The same goes for the online shop which sells HotMatchup merchandise, such as t-shirts and hats.
HotMatchup is an average adult dating site that would benefit from the addition of a few important features. The design isn't too bad and it is fairly easy to find your way around, but the lack of webcam chat support is a real limitation. We recommend checking out some of the sites in our top ten to get an idea of the better adult dating sites around.
