Popularity of swinger sites by region - What site do you recommend for your location?

Recommended Posts

In responses to newbies I have read a lot of suggestions about jointing a swinger site, but with so many great sites to choose from, how do the newbies figure out where to join? I have since discovered that different sites seem to have larger followings in different areas. If someone were to ask you for your recommendation for a site that has a lot of members in your areas, which site would you recommend, and what is your area?

 

This is not meant to promote one site over any other, but to give people an idea of good sites in their specific area.

 

I'll start....

 

In South Florida SDC seems to have a really strong following and sponsors A LOT of events. It seems most people we meet in the area either have an SDC (mostly) or SLS (some) profile. We have seen a lot of promotion lately by Kasidie, but have yet to check it out.

Out here in California, the only site that really seemed to have a good selection of other couples was SLS. While other sites claimed to have lots of locals, after checking they really didn't have that much. Of course that was two+ years ago. Since then we really haven't looked at other sites (and still haven't gotten any contacts on any of the other sites) so it may have changed.

We lived in Kansas City and SLS was, of course, ever present, but C4P (Club Fore Play) is really strong regionally with the center of their influence being Kansas City down to Oklahoma City. It is sort of like one of those weather maps where you lay the red oval over those two cities and the influence diminishes as you move away from that core.

As GoldCoCouple has mentioned already in California, along the coast/Bay Area, SLS has provided us with ample opportunities to meet sexy couples. We have also heard great things about the site Lifestyle Lounge from several couples. We like the lifetime membership option available on SLS and have had enough positive response that we don't feel a need to join another site....yet.

We are Southern Wisconsin and by far the best success we have had is on SLS. We have profiles on there as well as Kasadie, SDC, Desire, and CND. We check the other ones (maybe) weekly. But we use SLS daily. It has the best selection of events and groups by far as well.

Yes, C4P seems to be the big site here in the Kansas City area. I hadn't even heard of SLS or Kasidie until tuning into podcasts recently.

We live in Georgia and travel the USA. We have profiles on SDC, SLS, Kasidie. We get 10 times the action on SLS where ever we are compared to SDC and while we love Kasidie we get almost nothing out of it. SLS is the most primitive and awkward of the three so go figure? Must be the name! Pops up first on google I think.

I wonder how much SLS is used in the Kansas City area. I may have to check that out.

Kasidie is a great site, but I left it because it seemed to be very Colorado-centric. I've heard that it is becoming much more popular in California and Vegas now, so I may give it another try. SLS and Lifestyle Lounge have always been pretty good for me too. AFF is so full of fakes that it would probably be a waste of time for anyone who is serious.

Kasidie absorbed the local site we used to be on, unfortunately. We let our free trial run out because we weren't impressed. I've bitched about Kasidie on other threads, so I won't repeat myself.

I don't have a "recommendation," but here's my experience so far. Mind you, I am a married guy who is here for solo activity. So my experience might not be yours.

 

My (paid, lifetime) Kasidie membership hasn't turned up anyone I didn't already know from other social networks. No one has approached me on Kasidie. None of my attempts to approach has been successful. Kasidie does have a "business card" template; I have printed some cards from it. I'm not going to close the account; having paid for the lifetime membership I have nothing to gain by closing the account.

 

My (free) SLS membership hasn't yet turned up anyone I do know from other social networks. Again, none of my attempts to approach has been successful. I have been approached, recently, by a "solo wife" who lives several states away and who was looking at travelling through my town a few weeks later. Her travel plans fell through -- family medical emergency -- but she still seems interested if/when another trip comes along. (My wife thinks that her "excuse" was genuine.) That's a "plus" for SLS. Have not found a "business card" template on SLS.

 

After several failed attempts last September, today I finally managed to register a (free) account at C4P ("ClubForePlay.com"), of course as a single male. I am "wowed" by the number of profiles in my local area here. (I recognize some from SLS; that's OK by me.) Time will tell how well that will work out. C4P also has a "business card" template, and I plan to print some cards from it Real Soon Now.

 

I have also recently opened (free) accounts at three sites that are clearly inter-linked: Adult Friend Finder, Horny Wife, and FbookHookUps. As a free member, I can only reply to incoming messages -- can't send messages on my own. I have gotten lots of "notifications" that xxx has viewed my profile. I'm not sure that all of these profiles actually exist; and I'm not prepared to risk my money on the gamble that they are.

 

If I do find that SLS and/or C4P prove productive -- that they do lead to face to face contacts with people who are reasonable prospects -- then I will probably think seriously about purchasing a membership there. I don't mind going through a "probationary" period with local people who have not encountered me and who don't really know me. That's only prudent of them! I do mind paying for something that gives me nothing.

Hi Runsilent... Years ago I played as a single guy. THE most productive site I found at the time 2003-8 was ashleymadison. I had to pay but I got results. If I were you today playing as a single Id use free singles sites like plenty of fish and ok cupid. Why go on swinging couples sites? Single men are practically scorned by majority of swinging couples. We are the exception and really enjoy MFM play with respectful single men. If your looking for couples to play with try craigs list for free.

(Nods) I have tried all you mentioned except Ashley Madison. People on CL, here at least, are looking for a "hung" (8+") bi guy under 45. Or aren't (to me) HWP. POF seems mostly to have wives who want to cheat. OKC, for me, is like Kasidie: no contacts there whom I had not already met elsewhere. *shrug* I found that frustrating, so I have been widening my searches & my "advertising." SLS gave me a pleasant surprise. We'll see what else emerges.

 

I'll add that I'm aware that "swingers" are not made from cookie cutters. Different folks want different strokes. Some folks here will have no interests in common with mine, and won't see why on earth I should be here. And other folks may have plenty in common with me. Might not be lots of folks, but I suspect that some are out there. So, I figure it's worth becoming visible to them. :-)

We live around the Houston,Texas area. Couplestouch.com is the most popular site in the area.

SLS is an awful site on a lot of levels, BUT almost everyone seems to have a profile there, even if they have a preferred site that is not SLS.

maybe it geographical, but SLS works well for us. We've had many pleasant hookups, of course not all were great, but so far, over the last few years, it's worked very well for us.. We're not club people though and having owned one for 11 yrs, we're not likely to become interested. We drop by a local swing club every couple of months, just so the lady can take her clothes off and dance, but seldom find anyone that we care to mingle with at clubs.

As a married couple looking for single men for MFM threesomes we have had the most success on SDC. We are selective wanting business men type only. We have active profiles on SLS, AFF, Kaside, and SDC. AFF is mostly ugly married and desperate men. SLS is ok but a poorly built site. SDC appears to have what we are looking for. Kasidie is dead in Georgia. Did post on Craigs list once and was over whelmed with replies! If I didnt have a job I could spend all day screening the replies.

We're in southeast New Mexico, basically on the NM/TX border. SLS seems to be the most popular one.

SLS seems to be the most geographically evenly spread, I am not on Kasidie but have heard from people who are that it is more West Coast centered.

In the Netherlands, SDC is quite popular, lots of international contacts too. In vanilla internet boards, where (adult)sites may not be listed/promoted/stated, it is sometimes referred to as Dart Club. :-) Other sites are chatgirl, swingersnederland, regioswingers or excitant.nl e.g.
