User Base
Considering what type of person you’re looking for is also important. If you’re specifically looking for an LGBT+ friendly experience, apps like Her or Chappy can provide you with a safe space to look for love. Perhaps you’re only looking for someone in a specific age range, certain lifestyle, or professional status.
EliteSingles is an exclusive dating app that matches you with other people looking for intelligence, commitment, and a safe dating experience. EliteSingles understands that being serious about dating isn’t about age as much as finding the right person to begin sharing experiences with. This app pairs like-minded people together, so you don’t have to worry about getting attached to someone only to find out you want different things.
Another app that considers what type of person you’re looking for is OkCupid. You can choose an age range, gender, and interests that help narrow down potential matches. This app also has you answer several questions and it uses this to matches you with people based on a Match/Enemy percentage. On OkCupid, you swipe through other profiles, and if you don’t match, they can’t send you a message. This has cut down on the number of unwanted messages, preventing you from wasting any time.
With the huge amount of options when it comes to dating apps, thinking about the type of person you want will help narrow it down. If you’re already on a website with an entire user base of people with similar interests or backgrounds, it can help streamline the dating process and match you with someone faster.

- In the summer of 2007, Joh Hamm became a household name when Mad Men premiered to critical acclaim and strong ratings.

Before they were famous, Hamm was Kemper's high school drama teacher!
- While attending the Grammys in February 2000, Jennifer Lopez stepped out in a green Versace dress that instantly became a phenomenon. The barely-there ensemble had a dramatically low cut that came below JLo’s belly button. It became such a talking point that it was Google’s most popular search query up to that point, and it spurred the company to include images into search results. It became the motivation for Google Images.
- When Rihanna debuted her famous red locks in 2010 (around the same time she was featured on Eminem's "Love the Way You Lie"), she started a red-hair trend. Over the next twelve months, she changed her hairstyle 13 times—more than once a month! But that came at a pricey cost. Sources say the annual price tag came out to $1,168,000 on just her hair.
- After her role as First Lady came to an end, Jackie Kennedy went into the publishing business. She became an associate editor at Doubleday and worked mostly on autobiographies.

- In February 2020, Jeff Bezos bought the most expensive property in California: a $165 million mansion. It was designed for Jack Warner (the former president of Warner Bros. entertainment company).
