  • Gays seeking relationships with like-minded individuals
  • Gay men who are into casual flirting
  • Gays looking for hookups and erotic encounters with other gay men
  • Not for straight men seeking conventional dates
  • Gays searching for their perfect love matches
  • Not suitable for people seeking friendships and meaningful relationships

  • You get a personal profile which you can fill out
  • There are only gay men on the site
  • Membership is almost equally-distributed among age groups
  • All of the members have main photos
  • Members are looking for casual dates and hookups
  • The average age of members is 33 to 41 years old

Like its sister site BuddyGays under Timespace Services Limited, GaysGoDating categorizes its members into different "tribes," which is supposed to let members describe their personalities by choosing which group of people they identify with the most. Here are the tribe choices:

  • Bear - a bear is often a larger and hairier man who projects an image of rugged masculinity
  • Clean-cut - when you do not have much facial hair
  • Geek - if you gravitate toward what would be regarded as a geeky activity
  • Twink - if you are a young gay in your late teens
  • Daddy - if you are a dominant gay man
  • Jock - if you are an athletic gay man
  • BDSM - if you are a gay man who likes BDSM

There is no way to filter out those who are not being truthful, but only gay men are allowed to create an account with GaysGoDating. The site claims though, that it continuously monitors its members and puts particular attention to newbies for suspicious activities.

Making Contact on GaysGoDating

gaysgodating contacting
  • There is a chat function
  • The search function is available for free
  • Messaging is a premium feature
  • Sending likes and adding people to your favourites list is free
  • You can ask members to add more information to their profiles
  • All members can send messages for free

To reach out to other members, you can send them a message. Aside from text messaging, this function allows you to exchange photos and videos with one another. Sending messages is a premium feature but you can send feelers for free to your matches by liking their profiles and saving them onto your favourites list.

GaysGoDating is basic when it comes to messaging functions compared to other gay dating sites. This can work out if you are the straightforward type. If not, the experience may be a bit lacking for your taste.

Other features

A Status Message is a brief introduction about yourself that you can customise according to your preferences. You can be as creative as you want, but make sure that you don't include any of the following as it will be rejected by the moderator:

  • Personal or contact details
  • Links to other sites
  • Offensive language
  • Age or gender mismatch
  • Drug references
  • Escort service offer
  • Incomprehensible text
  • Currency symbols and solicitation for money

GaysGoDating Profile Quality

gaysgodating profile
  • Profiles show basic information such as name, age, and location
  • There are reports of fake profiles despite the site's security measures
  • Profile photo is required for "Flirtcasts"
  • Some profile information are locked for free members
  • Profile photos have specific size requirements
  • The profiles are poorly detailed
  • Profile pictures are visible to everyone for free

The profile sections should have been enough for you to get a feel of a member's personality, but since you can skip most of the registration process, they are often left blank by the members.

To compensate for this, GaysGoDating allows every member to push an "Ask to Add" button on every profile section, which will prompt a member to fill in their details. Profile photos have specific size and file requirements. Users can upload photos no less than 480 x 480 px and no bigger than 12MB. Accepted formats are .jpeg, .jpg, and .png.

At the base point, you will see a member's name, age, and location—which are required items when you create an account. You can also view the thumbnail of a profile's main photo, but viewing it in full size requires you to upgrade to a premium account. Despite the site's efforts to filter out suspicious activities and profiles, there are still reports of fake profiles. 

Other premium profile page features include browsing photo albums and unlocking the "Looking for" section, where you can find the relationship preferences of a member.

Overall, the profile pages will not hold enough information unless you upgrade your account.
