Introduction
In this blog post, we will discuss and define what unites and separates the free Christian dating websites from the totally free Christian dating websites.
What Is Free Christian Dating?
Free Christian dating, as well as free dating websites, are sites that you may join for free but have paid membership that you may upgrade to if you want to find your true Christian love.
These sites offer you a free membership but if you want to get all the functions you’ll need to upgrade to a paid membership. Video chats are only available in the VIP- and Gold memberships.
It is constructed like this since you will start by sending flirts/winks/cards or whatever it’s called on the dating site you have joined. Basically, you will be getting the same thing as on free websites. Text messages (internal email between members included) can be sent for free.
The reason why you have to pay for the ability to video-chat and record videos on yourself is spelled gigabyte. First, it takes a lot of room on the hosts (or web hotels) server. This is where the site is located. Secondly, sending a lot of pictures and especially video takes a lot of capacity from the server which means that the host will take an extra fee from the site’s owner if members have the ability to chat face-to-face.
This is the main reason why those memberships cost money and aren’t free. The fee people need to pay for those memberships will cover the cost for people to video chat.
To read what differs between Free, Gold– and VIP-memberships you may want to read our article that we wrote this spring.
To read about them, please click on the blue text (all blue text on our blog posts are links) above and you will be able to read about them.
Two sites that we think deserves to be mentioned are sites like ChristianSinglesBook and ChristianBuddies. They are exactly built up like this.
What Is Totally Free Christian Dating?
Totally free Christian dating is the model that some websites offers which basically means that you can join them for free but never have to pay any kind of membership fees for. These kinds of sites offer you full functionality (which often is equal to what you get on the free membership on the kind of sites mentioned above).
So video-chats, for example, is not available since it costs a lot of money to have videos as a function. An example of these sites is Christian Dating For Free.
What Is Paid Christian Dating?
Paid Christian dating is the model some websites that offer a paid subscription for longer or shorter periods of time use.
The money you pay is often invested in different aspects to enhance the user experience, like dating apps,
responsive websites, video chats and other functionality that is beneficial for the members of that dating site.

You may see this as a continuation of Dating 101 which you, by the way, may sign up to receive above for free.
What kind of site is XP Dating?
Our dating site, XP Dating (xpdating.com) should be categorized as a paid Christian dating site.
It is true that we offer a free membership but since we offer both a six month paid subscription
as well as monthly subscriptions we would say that xpdating.com is best described as a paid
Christian dating website.
The longer subscription period you sign up for, the cheaper it gets for you.
Isn’t that nice?
