The Full Story:
One of the most excellent dating sites on the web for singles is LavaPlace.com, where I was able to meet and chat up with a few eligible singles. There are many great features within this site but one of the best of them is the ability to browse available singles depending on city or depending on country. There are many dating sites on the web but only a very few offer good options when it comes to finding singles by location. Oftentimes, international dating websites only allow you to browse for singles on a per-country basis. However, with LavaPlace, you can choose to search for singles in other countries as well as in several cities within your resident country. So, whether you want to meet people who speak the same language that you do, or those which allow you to experience and appreciate a different culture, you can do so at LavaPlace.
Other interesting features of this dating site
There are many interesting features of this dating site, apart from the fact that you can easily search for singles by home city or country. Registration is pretty easy and you can complete the online form within short minutes. I was able to choose the age bracket I required when looking for female singles on the web. However, like many dating sites, you are required to have a valid email address prior to registering. You will also have the option of having photos of compatible singles emailed to you. I also appreciate the fact that LavaPlace emails their members with newsletters regularly, although this is optional. This way, I can get updated with the latest news and happenings on the site, even when I sometimes fail to log in on a daily basis.
The search option allows you to search for that particular single you are looking for. Do you prefer an 18-year old brunette who does not smoke? A voluptuous 28-year old who has green eyes? Or are you searching for a more mature date with whom you can form a casual relationship? I was able to easily search for eligible singles at this dating site and I was never disappointed by what I found. I appreciate the fact that I can choose singles who speak certain languages or those that don’t care what religion you are affiliated with. Once you have already filled out the search form, you will be able to choose the person that you are interested in, invite them to chat, or send them a private message. In my opinion, this is an excellent way to meet your match, without having to go through all the fuss.
The browse option allows you to click on a specific state in the United States or any city in Canada and Australia. You can also browse for singles per country. The Top 100 list allows you to view the most coveted singles on the site, depending on the number of views they got or the number of members who have added them to their list of favorites. Plus, you get to check out which members are already online at the dating site, so you can send them an instant message right that second.
Easy-to-navigate design
Since LavaPlace is designed for singles of all ages, the website design is also kept simple but very functional. Unlike other dating websites that appear cluttered, LavaPlace has chosen to keep things simple and organized. For someone like me who likes simpler things, the website design is a welcome plus. The layout is easy to navigate as well, and with just a single mouse click, I can get to nearly any desired web page without any trouble at all.
As another plus, LavaPlace also has a list of the best travel places around the world. Whether it’s exotic Greece or far away Russia, I get to read the comments from other members, such as where they are visiting, which restaurants they got to try, and which places are ideal for a vacation. Finally, the website has a useful Help section where all the Frequently Asked Questions are answered. If you are looking for a dating site that is easy to use, fun, and really effective, LavaPlace will not disappoint.

Lava Place is very overrated! I took out a full paid membership for a month to see what “luck” I got. Indeed, I did get a few responses here and there — mainly from web cam girls trying to rip me off after a period of grooming. In addition, I received two responses for a plea of help (after a period of emailing back and forth) from 2 beauties (both Caucasians) who turned out to be dodgy Nigerians on the look out for mugs like me. COME ON! Think! Such gorgeous women — do they REALLY need LavaPlace? I doubt it somehow!

Like all other sites Lavaplace has its fair share of bogus profiles, confused people and photos that don’t really tell the true story. You have to go through a lot of crap to find one nugget. I meet two woman recenlty who I think are bit mad and needs to be treated – perhaps being kind to them they may be autistic. They were both Russian and high maintenance and in public were very loud and over animated. They expect you to pay for everything as if they are coming as your mistress and yet want equality , respect, high quality men and your coat to be thrown on the puddle for them to walk over. Just be careful of these econimically motivated people.

Frank Spencer , I think we met the same women. I also met two Russian women who were a bit nuts. I was embarrased to be with one of them in a cafe as she was so animated and loud and everyone could here her. Looks like these two are doing the rounds and preying on victims and getting their freebees. They were indeed high maintenance and expecting coat over puddle.

I have tried this side for a long time now and I regret that I prepaid.
I have had corresponce with many women almost in all europe. After a short time I found out, that many of the profiles are fake. The women write sweet words to get your attention. Then they continue untill you lose your heart and mind. I had this experience with 45 women. But only one out of 45 women was ready to talk with me on phone or send me more pictures. She was real. The others try to win your heart so they can easily get you to send them money for flight ticket and so on. Some of the profile were actually prostituts with noud pictures.
I was not so stupid to send them money, but I really regret, that I have wasted so much time on faked women (maybe they were men).
