As the temperatures drop, you might be looking for a special someone to cosy up to this winter, and an online dating service is a good place to start. Online dating and dating apps are now one of the most popular ways to meet a new partner and there are more than 1,400 sites in the UK alone, catering for people from all walks of life and interests. Now is the perfect time to log on. Most well-known dating sites see their biggest surge in traffic in December, with a second spike on the first Sunday after New Year — sometimes known as &quot,Dating Sunday&quot,. And of course, Valentine's day is just around the corner. The good news is, the range of dating sites has never been bigger. Whether you’re mad about dogs, passionate about green issues or a connoisseur of fine wines, you may just be a few clicks away from someone who shares your interests. Here is our pick of the best dating websites and apps – not forgetting our very own website dating.telegraph.co.uk. The best dating sites and apps in the UK. 1. Eharmony. Best for: serious relationships. Free membership (limited) 5 million users in the UK. Modern matchmaking service, eharmony, claims over two million people have found love through their site. Users are required to fill out a short quiz to determine their core values in relation to others, and this powers many useful tools to help them find love (including compatibility scores, personality profiles, and relationship advice). It’s free to register and download the app, send ‘smiles’ and pre-written Icebreakers to get the conversation started. However, you need to subscribe for customised messages and unlimited access to your match’s profile. Subscription costs from £7.95 per month for 24 months. 2. Match.com. Best for: getting back out there. Free membership (limited) 3 million users in the UK. Synonymous with online dating, Match.com has someone for everyone. Create a detailed profile, then find your potential partner through a criteria search. You can go on “zen mode” to be only contacted by those who meet your criteria. It’s free to become a member but you can only send and receive messages if you are a subscriber. Subscription costs from £12.99 per month for six months. 3. EliteSingles. Best for: educated singles in their forties. From £19.90 per month. 13 million users worldwide. Those averse to swiping left may enjoy EliteSingles – a site that uses a personality test to match users based on their compatibility. The comprehensive compatibility test takes into account looks, personality (with questions on how optimistic and ambitious you are, your social skills, how friends would describe you, and more), and what you're looking for in a partner – including whether or not you want children. Most users are looking for a long-term commitment and intellectual match, and 85 per cent of users have a degree and are between 30 and 55 years old. You need to subscribe to send messages to your matches, as well as see all of their photos and leave comments. Premium membership costs from £19.90 per month for 12 months, or you can trial it for three months (£39.95 per month) or six months (£21.95 per month). 4. Silver Singles. Best for: Over 50's who are looking for love. Free membership (limited) 70,000 users in the UK. While Silver Singles is most popular in the States, it is starting to catch on in the UK, too. To register for the site, you must fill out a comprehensive personality test, which takes between 15 and 30 minutes and aims to partner you with your perfect match. While profiles are quite detailed, they are kept behind a paywall. Likewise, you will need to pay in order to send messages to prospective matches. This premium membership costs from $24.95 for 12 months. 5. Our Time. Best for: meeting a variety of over-50s singletons in your area. Free membership. 150,000 active users. Fairly new to the dating app scene, Our Time is a breath of fresh air for those who are tired of swiping and want to meet someone IRL (that's 'in real life' in text speak). The site hosts regular events for mature singles in your area, where you can meet likeminded people. Feeling shy? You can bring up to three friends with you for moral support. The app is owned by Match Group, meaning your profile will appear on other dating sites – which widens the pool for meeting your potential partner. 6. Telegraph Dating. Best for: meeting like-minded individuals. Free membership (limited) 220,000 members worldwide. The Telegraph Dating site is a straightforward way to meet like-minded singles. As you set up your free profile, simply describe the type of person for whom you’re searching. Then, browse the site and view others’ profiles, once you find someone who you feel is a good match, send them a message. A free membership allows you to read messages from potential matches and reply with a one-liner. Only paying subscribers can start conversations and write personal, customised messages. It costs from £12 per month for 12 months for a subscription. For an additional £10 per month, you can upgrade to Premium, where anyone can reply to your messages for free. 7. Parship. Best for: singles looking for a long-term commitment. Free (limited) 23,000 new members every week. Parship has a scientific approach to helping you find love. Relying on 40 years of findings on how to build a successful relationship, the site categorises users into 36 personality traits, and uses a matching algorithm of 136 rules. The compatibility questionnaire is extensive, and covers everything from what you look for in a partner to whether you sleep with the window open. There is a fairly even male/female split in the users, and 52 per cent of them are graduates. The site welcomes 23,000 new members every week, and almost four in 10 find their partner through Parship. However, whilst it is free to sign up, take the comprehensive personality test, view your matches and send them 'smiles', you have to pay to be able to message your matches. Membership costs from £14.90 per month for 12 months, but you can trial the site for six months (£19.90 per month) or three months (£29.90 per month), too. 8. Original Dating. Best for: Singles who want a quirky way of finding The One. From £10 per event. Over 250,000 user s. Tired of swiping right? Original Dating is unlike other apps in that it focuses on singles meeting up in real life. There are speed dating events (including virtual options) where you will typically meet between 15 and 20 people in one night. Unlike the speed dating events of old, Original Dating ensures there is an even ratio of men:women by asking all attendees to book online. You can subscribe for discounts and access to more exclusive events, or just give an event a go (prices start at just £10). 9. Lumen. Best for: mature dating for the young at heart. Free membership. 350,000 users worldwide. Whether your children have flown the nest or you’re recently divorced, dating in your fifties is a bit of a minefield. That’s where Lumen comes in. Some dating apps can be soul-destroying when conversations consist of boring pleasantries. Not so with Lumen. Your icebreaker message needs to be at least 50 characters long, which encourages interesting chats. All accounts are verified, and profiles are detailed – with at least three photos and a lengthy bio. There are no paywalls on the site but you can only start six conversations per day as a free member. You can upgrade to 12 conversations per day if you subscribe for £24.99 per month. 10. OkCupid. Best for: quirky and open-minded singles. Free membership. 4 million users worldwide. OkCupid has an extensive personality questionnaire, designed to increase compatibility. You can then inject personality into your profile by answering quirky questions, such as “Do you make your bed every day?” Instead of being bombarded with messages, you can only message those with whom you have matched.
