Q. Why MeetIranians.com?
A. There are many dating sites on the Internet, but there are not many good dating services for Iranians. The ones that are already out there are either incomplete, or are charging a hefty fee for their services. Dating on the Internet should be free. Finding love or is not about handing over a fee to a dating site that only cares about making sure you pay them to use their advanced services. That is absurd. Therefore, we decided to create this complete dating service and dedicate it to Iranians worldwide. We are not asking you for any money. You will never have to pay a us a fee. Put away your credit-card because you don't need it here.

For Iranians inside our home country, you're all welcome. Please use our services and enjoy meeting each other and good luck in finding the right partner. For Iranians living outside of Iran, well, it's bad enough that we are in "ghorbat", so why be lonely? Join us today and watch us grow! No strings attached. And do please tell all your friends about us. [back]
