"As soon as I finished my registration process, I felt that this site is not for me. It actually had ads in every click! I hate ads. Even though I wanted to try the premium, I had encountered several ads along the way to the payment page. So I stopped".- Rica, 29

“SocialSex is becoming popular and making noise in the adult dating world. In terms of features, it has a lot to offer. However, it's hard to contact and connect with other members unless you pay for a premium membership. There are a lot of pop-up ads as you browse the site. This can be a hassle for most users. Nonetheless, it is promising. But if you are looking for a more stable and more tried and tested site, you may check out other Adult Dating sites that we have reviewed.”

"SocialSex is just like any typical website around. Has a lot of stuff going on. Cannot do anything with it unless I register for premium. Not even a trial period. Also, the design is too loud. I'm a bit minimalist, so I don't really like seeing the page." -Mati, 26
Design & usability
Design and Usability
SocialSex design is playful and fits the taste of the younger generations. It has colorful interface and the fonts used are playful as well. Nonetheless, the icons used are easy to identify, and even not-so-techy members will be able to navigate.
It currently doesn't have an app version which will be more convenient for members who are always on-the-go. They could use their mobile browsers instead if there's a need to check the account while being outside and with no access to the computer.
