GayFriendFinder Review February 2023

Signing up for an account at Gayfriendfinder is simple. The site makes it easy for its gay members to connect with other gays within their communities.

During account creation, all you need to do is go to their website. Once you’re on their homepage, click on the "Join Now" button and start your registration.

Account creation is divided into five main sections. In the first section, you will be asked whether you’re looking for single men or couples. Next are other details about you, which include your age and location for geotargeting. Then after that, you also need to provide your email and username. In this section, the site verifies your location, and since it is region-locked, you will not be able to proceed if you are from outside their region of operations.

The fourth section that you need to fill up is “A little information.” In this section, you will need to indicate your race, body type, sexual orientation, and marital status. The last part of the registration process is the "More About You" section. To complete this part, you need to provide an intro title and write something about yourself, which you can skip and do later.

A verification email will be sent to the email you specified. You need to verify your email so that you can proceed to the site and start exploring.

Like any other dating site or app, it is mandatory that it has communication tools that users can use to connect with other members. GayFriendFinder has several contacting options for its users. Some of them are as follows:

Private Messaging

GayFriendFinder offers private messaging between members. This can be accessed through the site's message center. However, this contacting feature can only be accessed if you are a paying member of the site.

Personal Lists and Admirers

By adding members to any of your personal lists below, you increase your chance of getting noticed by them. These members will be categorized based on your activity in relation to them.

• Hotlist

These are members whom you find hot when you use the Hot or Not feature. This contacting feature is free.

• Flirts

Flirts can be sent to any user you're interested in through the message center. So you need to have a premium membership for this.

• Views

This list is composed of members whom you viewed. You also need a premium membership so that you can access this since you won't be able to view profiles for free.

On the other hand, if members find you hot or flirt with you or view your profile, a notification will be sent to you. Also, you will see them in your Hotlisted Me, Flirted with Me, and Who Viewed Me lists.

Chat rooms

Chat rooms are free for you to access. All you need to do is enter a chat room that fits your interest. However, based on research, most chat rooms can slow, and not a lot of people are online.

Groups

The same with chat rooms, your access to groups is free. Groups are sectioned accordingly and lumped together based on topics. These groups also serve as online forums where you can discuss anything under the sun.

Like any other Friend Finder Network affiliated, GayFriendFinder does not allow its members to view the full profile of other members. It requires a premium membership subscription so that you can see their profiles.

Some tabs show your:

• Profile

You will see most of the information you provided during registration in your profile. Some of the details included in your profile are username, age, location, and online status, as well as your "status" and date of membership.

In another section, a bigger version of your uploaded photo is displayed. Also shown in your profile are your gender and preference, birthdate, location, body type, race, and languages spoken. This information is the same information collected during sign-up.

• Photos or albums, and videos 

Your uploaded photos and videos are displayed in this tab. You have the option to make it public or private.

• Questions and answers

In this tab of your profile are some prompt questions you can answer for other members to know you better. They can also answer these questions and see if you are compatible. 

• My blog

One of the special features of GayFriendFinder is the Blog section. Here you can write anything that you want to write about (including but not limited to) sexual relationships, kinks and fetishes, and advice.

You also have the option to change and edit your profile information. Just ensure you have already verified your email so you can proceed with this. Despite the site's efforts to filter suspicious accounts, fake profiles are still possible. If you encounter such profiles, don't hesitate to block and report them.
