Lavalife’s roots come from the telephone dating service started in Toronto, Canada, in the early 1980’s and grew from there. Although the online business does not do as well as the phone dating service, I would expect that difference to start to blur as Lavalife brings the two services together more and adds additional services that can grow as intermediaries if well planned, such as the new growth into speed dating.

I have noticed through previous reviews that old profiles stay for a while then fade out or are removed, but since I was not watching closely, anything could have happened over the years. So now, for this review, there will be a fresh profile posted and we will track to see when the profile has been removed, after the 7 day login period (which also includes profile edits to keep the profile “alive” for one full week).

Lavalife has always been a favorite dating destination for me. Plenty of ways to connect with others and replying to messages is always free.
This review, over 7 days then watched carefully to see when the stale profile is removed, should be telling.

I do expect to see many improvements since I last visited Lavalife, at the beginning of 2009. I know that they have made several site improvements to increases the overall user experience.
