Q: What is the mission and purpose of NiceIntro.com?
A: Our mission is to provide the most efficient, most effective, easiest-to-use, quickest responding, safest, and most respectable service for single adults to introduce themselves and meet one another.   Unlike the many hundreds of so-called "dating" and "matchmaker" services that are so heavily promoted on the Internet, and in advertising, NiceIntro.com is not designed to be a money-making machine.   NiceIntro.com is also not a "dating" or a "matchmaker" service.   For further details, please go to "What are the differences ..."

Q: Is it really free?   How free is it?
A: Yes, absolutely!   NiceIntro.com is totally and completely FREE ... with NO strings attached.   While most so-called "dating" and "matchmaker" services claim to offer "free" trial memberships, in most cases, what they actually offer for "free" is really just an inducement to sign-up as a "member" so they can keep trying to sell you something.   But in order to actually do anything, members find that they have to "upgrade" to a paid membership at a typical cost of about $20.00 per month (or sometimes a whole lot more) in order to get a Gold or Silver or Platinum membership which will give them "full service" access.

NiceIntro.com does not require any fee to be paid for participants to receive "full" and unrestricted use of our services.   Furthermore, we do not request and we do not even accept donations.   NiceIntro.com truly is an unconditionally FREE service.

Q: What's the catch?   How can you afford to give away this service free?
A: NiceIntro.com is a "not-for-profit" Christian ministry, not a money-making business.   We chose to make NiceIntro.com completely FREE so there would be no question about our motives in providing this service.

As a separate but related endeavor, this ministry also offers a seminar called "True Love Never Fails -- How to find the right one ..." and this seminar is also offered FREE to singles groups.   The sponsor of both of these ministry initiatives is Communication Architects, a management consulting firm that publishes a 24-page book entitled True Love Never Fails Guide which is sold for $15.00 at the seminar and at the website TrueLoveNeverFails.com.   Sales of this book provide some revenues to support this ministry.

Q: Why should I join? What are the benefits?
A: Most single adults have a deeply rooted desire to "find the right one" with whom to build a life together.   However, most singles agree that it can be a very difficult challenge to meet new people ... especially to find new acquaintences and potential friends with whom one may be suitably compatible for a deeper and more intimate life-long relationship.

The Internet has opened a wonderful new avenue of opportunity to expand one's horizons and increase one's potential to meet new friends ... and yet, trying to meet people through the Internet can also be both highly frustrating and even a minefield of hazards. Most so-called "dating" and "matchmaker" services tend to force everyone into a pre-defined form and format, and most severely limit people's abilities to communicate in a meaningful way.

The main benefit that NiceIntro.com provides is that it gives you a completely unfettered opportunity to introduce yourself to others in exactly the way that you want to be introduced ... not the way someone else has decided that facts and information about you should be presented. ... and no waiting. In just a few seconds, you can "upload" your own personal introduction message along with a photograph of yourself, if you wish. And you can update and replace this message at any time -- without any cost whatsoever.

NiceIntro.com also gives you immediate access to quickly scan the membership directory, to select and sort the directory of members by various criteria and instantly read any other participants' introduction of themselves, view their photograph, and then immediately write a personal, confidential note directly to them.

So, if you would like to meet new friends and/or just share your personal testimony to encourage others ... or if you want to find "the right one" with whom to share your life, NiceIntro.com offers you the most convenient way to introduce yourself to others with your own Personal Introduction Web-page.

If you've read enough and want to get started without further delay, just click here to join right now.

Q: Is it safe?   How safe is it?
A: NiceIntro.com is just as safe as you choose to make it.   It is safer than having your name, address, and telephone number in your local telephone book.   It is safer than giving out business cards that announce your name, telephone number, work location and other such information.   It is a whole lot safer than having your photo, name, address, and telephone number in the kind of directory of members that is published by many churches and other organizations.

You and you alone decide what information you want to disclose in your Personal Introduction Web-page ... and what information you choose to not disclose. We strongly advise against including your telephone number or physical address or any information which might allow a complete stranger to find you.

Whether you want to include your personal email address or not is up to you.   Email addresses are generally quite "safe" as it is usually very difficult to identify anyone or discover their telephone number or where they live from their email address.   There are lots of services available through the Internet where you can obtain a completely anonymous email address, and we highly recommend doing that.

NiceIntro.com provides an additional level of protection for you in that our system never discloses your email address to anyone to whom you may write an email message when it is sent through our system.   So, you can continue to exchange email messages with anyone through our system as long as you like without ever disclosing your own personal or business email address. Just click on anyone's name in the Membership Directory and a window opens for you to write a message to them. You will then be prompted to enter your own email address which is simply used to verify that you are a member and authorized to send email messages to other members, but your email address is never forwarded with your message unless you choose to include it in the body of your message.

Certainly, it is just good common sense to take every precaution to protect your personal identity, telephone number, and physical address until you have thoroughly checked references to make sure that any new person you meet is who they say they are.   You will find much more information on this subject at our companion website: TrueLoveNeverFails.com

Q: Why is it important to have a Personal Introduction Web-page?
A: A Personal Introduction Web-page is absolutely the best possible way for you to introduce yourself to others and make sure that you are presented in the way that you want to be presented. Please do not delay doing this. It is very easy to do and you can always update and improve it later ... as often as you desire. It is also important to include a good quality, current photo of yourself on your Personal Introduction page. A photo is truly worth a thousand words ... so make sure that you use a good, clear, nicely composed photo of yourself. If you don't have one readily available, don't wait to create your Personal Introduction Web-page. Get started right away and add a photo or update your introduction text later. The better and the more interesting that you make your Personal Introduction, the more likely you are to get others to respond to you. NiceIntro.com allows you to compose your personal introduction your way!   We do not force you to answer an endless list of time-consuming questions and check a whole bunch of buttons with prescribed options that don't quite fit you, the way most others do. Instead, we encourage you to present yourself the way you want to be presented with just the best, most interesting, and most appealing information that you would like to share about yourself.

Q: How do I create and edit my Personal Introduction Web-page?
A: You can easily update your web-page any time you want to and as often as desired.   Instead of setting up an "editing" capability (which is a rather complex matter that requires setting up unique user login names and/or membership numbers and passwords and additional processing routines which can be very slow and cumbersome), NiceIntro.com is set up so that members can just key-in or cut-and-paste to insert a newly updated introductory text message and upload a new photo at any time to replace your previous web-page. Just click on the link at the bottom of the Membership Directory page to create or update your Personal Introduction Web-page or click here to do it now.

Q: How do I notify NiceIntro.com if I change my email address?
A: There are two simple options.   The easiest is to just re-join with all new information, including a new email address. Old listings with invalid email addresses will be automatically purged from the system periodically. Or, to make sure your old email address is removed immediately, you can send an email message to us using the "Email feedback and suggestions to:" link on the membership directory page or here: NiceIntro@Actionline.com

Q: How do I remove my name and listing?
A: Just send an email message to us.   The system automatically deletes any record for which the email address is bounced back to us as no longer valid.

Please note: Eventually, we plan to implement a function for members who become "connected" to have the option to enter an "updated" personal web-page with a testimonial message to share their "success" story, in which case most of the "vital stats" from the membership directory would be deleted and the green dot would be replaced by a purple dot so that members (and visitors) could click on that purple dot to read the happy personal testimonies in the former member's own words.   We hope this will provide a positive and encouraging message of hope and testimony of members' faith.

Q: How can I help to promote NiceIntro.com?
A: Please tell every single you know about NiceIntro.com and encourage them to join.   Also, please tell your pastor or church singles coordinator about both NiceIntro.com and also about the True Love Never Fails seminar which is available to be presented at your church free of charge.

Q: Why is NiceIntro.com not included in the ratings of "singles" websites?
A: Since NiceIntro.com is totally free, there is no revenue available to provide "fee-sharing" with the various rating groups which usually base their ratings on the amount of shared revenue that they receive.

Q: Why is NiceIntro.com not included in Internet searches for Christian Singles websites?
A: Most Internet search engines base their listings on how many links there are to any given website; and since NiceIntro.com does not have income to provide revenue sharing with other websites, there are many fewer links, and since there are more than 600,000 hits that result from searching for "Christian Singles," all the websites that do charge fees usually have many, many more links and thus end up much higher in the list.

Q: Is NiceIntro.com open to non-Christians?
A: NiceIntro.com is open to everyone.

Back to top    To opening page

Q: Why is NiceIntro.com made available to people of any faith (or of no faith)?
A: NiceIntro.com is open to everyone without regard to race, creed, religion, etc. All we ask is that members state their religion or "spiritual focus" so that others will have the opportunity to pursue communication with those of like-minded faith.

Q: How should I respond if contacted by someone I'd rather not meet?
A: Always be polite and politely honest. If you are contacted by anyone with whom you do not believe you would be compatible, just politely thank them for contacting you and tell them something like this: "You seem like a very nice person, but from what I know about myself, I just do not think that we would be very compatible."
