This is the first review of our new section on ‘Startup Online Dating Sites’ since many new dating sites have been popping up fairly recently. It would seem that we are now witnessing another wave in the internet buzz for online dating as we saw over a decade ago.
Kipici is a catchy name and should be read as ki-pe-she. We go under the hood of Kipic to see what this new site has to offer…

In the first part of the registration, you have to enter your login information such as email and password. In the second stage you have to select your profile photo, and you cannot skip this like other dating sites allow you to. The photo should not be nude and it must not contain any children or group photos which they make clear in their guidelines. After that, you have to create a thumbnail for your profile photo.

In the third step you have to enter the profile information and some additional information and in the fourth and the last stages the site tells you how you came to know about the site and you are done!

You will receive a conformation mail within 1 minute of completing the registrations process. Just click on the link provided and you now become an official member of Kipici. It seems lengthy but it’s actually quick and easy.

You must be 18 years or above to register to this site.

Login and Customizing Profile

Login to this site is very easy as it only asks for the username and password. You can customize the settings for notification, records of flirts, search, favorite and the members visiting your profile. Setting a rule for targeting specifically the members on the site is not there. Privacy features available to the user looks to be on the weak side. You can change any of the details in your profile that you had filled during the initial six part registration.

Photo profile Selection

You can easily upload your profile photo from your own computer. Just be aware that when selecting a photo that it should not contain any group shots or children. Users may feel disappointed that there are no options for importing photos from Orkut or Facebook accounts. The good news is that you did not have to wait for the approval of the photo as it is shows up instantly against your profile.

Browse and Search Feature

Kipici gives you the privilege to browse and search from any feature in the entire site with relative ease. Here you can make a quick search of your partner simply by providing the residential location you are looking for and the age group. You can also conduct an advanced search by providing the basic criteria, appearance and background beliefs.

The advanced search in this site is really an excellent way to find and narrow down the matching partners you are looking for. However, as I tried have searched I did not get sufficient matches and this may be due to the lack of members on this site. Also, keep in mind that as you narrow your search to more specifics the returned results can be small, so it is generally a better idea to do a broad search and then narrow down your results.

Messaging

Messaging which is a crucial feature of any dating site has to be done right. Kipici has the messaging feature shown on the top of the homepage.
