Hot or Not

Are you Hot? Or are you Not?

Meeting people is tough as it is, dating people can even be tougher. With loads of options to meet people, whether it be an introduction from a friend, meeting out and about around town, or through the internet, it seems like there should be no excuse to not meet someone compatible to you. Still, it seems like the amount of single people never seems to dwindle down.

With a variety of fun dating services to choose from, it can be hard to find the perfect matchmaker site for you. 

Launched years back, Hot or Not began as a fun site to rate others based only on their looks. It also was an outlet to see how you, yourself compared to others. Whether you were "hot or not" based solely on your looks proved to be fun. Users would upload photos and then rate other’s photos on a scale of 1 to 10. From there, the resulting average from the votes would appear on your profile.  Through a process of rebranding and re-launching, and in an effort to keep up with new technologies, Hot or Not has now staged a comeback, while entertaining a new twist.

Dating.

What if you thought someone looked "hot" and you wanted to meet them? Now you can. Hot or not integrates dating into the mix with their new app. And, as you can see online dating was not enough. Hot or Not has taken internet dating sites even further, boasting themselves as an “application” dating service. Iphone friendly, and with the ability to either create an account or connect via your Facebook account, hot or not has now become an easy way to check out who in your city is hot and then connecting u straight to that person. In an easy to use application, you are one download and one click away from meeting the hottest person for you. Instead of rating photos on a 1 to 10 scale, you simply will click “yes” or “no” when faced with another user’s photo. “Yes” if you think this person is “hot,” or “No,” if you don’t happen to find them “hot.” If you choose “yes” and they choose the same for you, you are notified that a match has been found! From there, both sides are notified and it is up to you to turn two “hots” into a “hot couple.”
