About

I purchased the domain getsteady.com on October 02 2007 and I have been working on it ever since. It has been a long journey for me with many ups and downs. I've been trying to develop this site into something that is useful and unique. I have a lot of time, money and energy invested into it, so it is very very personal to me.

I committed myself to supporting honest and long-lasting friendships and relationships, delivering all of the perks of online dating while blocking over-sexualized photos, invasive advertising, false profiles and spam.

Because we're leagues above the typical dating scene, you can talk comfortably and confidently with your friends and family about GetSteady and the men and women you meet here.

My goal from the beginning has been to make GetSteady the best place to meet new people for friendship and dating. There are 100's of dating sites on the Internet and unfortunately most of them are crap, filled with fake, empty or stagnant profiles or people that really aren't serious or prepared for a relationship.

That is why I've mandated photo verification for every member who joins. Yes, it might be a pain in the butt to some but the benefits will lead to a site that is filled with real people who are serious about dating. Think of verification as a net, catching all the time wasters and game players. Let them have their fun on one of the other sites that allow anyone and everyone to sign up.

Every GetSteady member profile includes a photo, and we've already verified its authenticity long before you fall hook-line-and-sinker for their opening line. So you have greater assurance that all members really are who they say they are. No guesswork. No hesitation. No surprises. GetSteady is the ONLY dating site on the entire Internet that photo verifies all its members.

One thing I must stress is that you must be patient if you are a member. GetSteady is only advertised by word of mouth so it's going to take some time to grow our membership base. In the meantime the site is 100% free so you have nothing to worry about!

I am honored to be your host here at getsteady.com and would love to hear any feedback, good or bad that you may have. Tell me what you want or don't want and I'll do my best to make it happen. I am the 'IceCreamTruck' because I am here to deliver love and happiness into your life. You can help me and everyone else here at GetSteady by telling all your single friends to come join us! I wish I had millions of dollars to promote this place but I don'’t. I am just some broke dude with an idea for something better. Isn't that how great things get started?

You can search single's profiles absolutely free and view as many profiles as you''d like. There's no time or photo viewing limits. Then, when you're ready to make your own profile public, just request photo verification. The process is quick and easy because we offer two different methods from which to choose.

A new quick contact form has been added so that anyone visiting the site can contact members. If the member has enabled this feature, you can send them a message without even signing up by using the contact form at the bottom of their public profile. GetSteady is the ONLY dating site on the entire Internet that allows something like this!

So am I single? I get asked that a lot! Well, I am. Many people have asked me how can I be the owner of a great dating site yet be single. Well, as my good friend once told me, my cookie probably isn't done baking yet. When it is, I hope to meet him on this site. That's one of the reasons I built it ;)

Much love,
