- Q. How do I find people I like — but only the ones who are looking for someone like me?
-
A.
It’s easy with our Mutual Match. Describe who you’re looking for, and we’ll deliver your matches right to your inbox. Or investigate Who's Viewed Me to see who clicked on your profile.

- Q. Why am I not getting very many search results?
-
A.
There are several ways to increase the number of search results you receive. Check the basic criteria in your search. Is your search radius too narrow? Is your age range too tight? For mutual matching, make sure you haven’t set the importance of too many items to "Absolutely." In other words, don’t be so picky.

-
A.
It’s easy! Simply choose the search criteria you’d like (gender, area, age range, etc.) on a Search and check the box next to "Online Now." Your results will include only those members who fit what you’re looking for and are signed into Match.com Philippines now.

- Q. How can I sort my search results?
-
A.
When reviewing your current search results, you’ll see a pull-down menu of options for sorting your matches by username, Newest Profile First, Age, etc. You may also choose to view profile details or display the results as a photo gallery. In addition, there will be a check box you can select to refine your results to those who are "Online now only." This narrows your results even further while looking for a match to start a conversation with immediately.

- Q. Can I have my saved searches emailed to my inbox?
-
A.
Yes! You can choose any of your saved searches to be sent to your inbox by clicking 'Create a saved search and send it to your inbox >>' on the search index page. Unfortunately, we cannot email your online now searches because those results vary, depending on when we send you the Match.com Philippines by Mail updates and when you open and click on the search results within.
