We’ve recently made important updates to Seeking.com, specifically removing the “Net Worth” and “Income” fields for our successful members and replacing the subjective “Body Type” field with “Weight.” We recognize these changes have stirred discussion among our valued users, and we want to openly share our reasoning behind these decisions.
Improving Authenticity and Safety
It was becoming more apparent that “Net Worth” and “Income” were inherently problematic because they were not verifiable and were being used dishonestly. To better protect our members and maintain authenticity on the platform, we’ve concluded that the most accurate measure of a member’s success and generosity is their willingness and ability to invest in meaningful relationships.
There are better ways to more accurately determine the net worth or income of an individual—for example, by reviewing the photos or descriptions on their profiles, which often provide a clearer, more authentic glimpse into the lifestyle a specific member actually leads.
Additionally, to reinforce this approach, our prices will soon increase. This change will naturally help us identify and retain genuinely generous and successful members who truly embody the values our community appreciates.
Why Weight is a Better Measurement
We replaced the “Body Type” field with “Weight” because body type is inherently subjective and can lead to misunderstandings or unrealistic expectations. Providing a specific measurement like weight allows members to have a clear, factual reference, minimizing ambiguity.
Additionally, specifying weight encourages honesty and transparency in profiles, leading to more genuine connections based on true physical attributes rather than subjective interpretations.
Enhanced Diamond Membership Benefits
We are also excited to announce enhancements to our Diamond membership. Diamond members will soon enjoy exclusive benefits, such as gaining early access—up to three days—to new attractive members joining the site. This early access will give them a significant advantage in connecting with potential soulmates ahead of others.
Transforming Seeking.com: Luxury Dating Redefined
We acknowledge the concerns that the changes to Seeking.com are bringing. Allow me to reassure you, if you give it a chance, you will see that the best is yet to come. Seeking remains committed to being the world’s premier luxury dating service, exclusively designed for the most successful and desirable singles. Our vision remains clear: to facilitate authentic connections and lasting love stories, just like mine and Dana’s.
We sincerely appreciate your patience and continued support as we transform Seeking.com into the extraordinary dating platform it was always meant to be—the best, for the very best.
With heartfelt thanks,
Brandon & Dana
Co-CEOs, Seeking.com
