Indian dating - free sites and services UK

Indian dating sites are well worth a look if you're of Indian descent and looking for a UK partner from the same culture.

Most of these allow you to post a profile and photo for free, and you can search through members before having to pay for full service access. This means you can trawl the sites and choose which looks most appealing before paying the monthly fees (usually between £10 and £20).

For those with serious intents for a long-term relationship and marriage MatrimonialsIndia.com is a good place to start. Rather than the usual 'man looking for woman' drop down in the search terms and access 'bride' or 'groom' - those with serious plans for marriage need only apply.

Although the site is based in India it has members from a number of different countries and is available in 11 languages including English, Urdu, Punjabi and Tamil. And if you've got set requirements it's simple to find a match from a very specific background with dedicated sites for members of different religions, castes and occupations.

A free alternative for Indian dating is hindufaces.com, a growing site which aims to put single Hindus around the world in touch with each other. Although the search terms are not as specific as some other sites you can browse members' profiles and send and read email messages for free.

US-based site Frooper.com screens all members' profiles and photos in order to keep its site safe and clean. Once you create a profile you can chat or send 'buzzes' (flirts) for free but you need to become a paid-up 'premium' member in order to reply to messages, use the online forums and discussion boards or receive text alerts when new members that match your profile are online.

The UK-based site Indiandating.com has a broad membership base and allows members to search for dates by religion and country. Advanced searches allow you to narrow down your search terms further but you must register with the site before being allowed to see member profiles. Indian dating's sister site, IndianMatrimonials.com, works in a similar way but aims to put those in search of a future spouse in contact with one another.
