Here is my quick list of the top three dating sites and apps in Italy. I’ll go into more detail in my reviews later in this article.

  1. Meetic.it
  2. OkCupid
  3. Tinder

I will get straight to the point. Italy doesn’t have a strong online dating and dating app scene like in other European countries…unlike Spain and Germany. There are several online dating sites and apps to chose from, but it is near impossible to find a match unless you are in a a city with a lot of single people, like Rome, Milan, Naples, Florence, or Venice.

My goal in this post is to highlight the handful of dating sites and apps that are worth your time so that you can get on your way to finding love in this country. Without further ado, below are my detailed reviews of the top three dating sites and apps in Italy.

1. Meetic.it

Founded in 2001 and based in Boulogne-Billancourt, France, Meetic.it is the best online dating site in Italy. From its humble beginnings, it has grown into the largest online dating site in Europe (source: JupiterResearch). Following the acquisition of Match.com’s European operations, the site exploded in popularity and has millions of members all across the EU. If you have time to sign up for only one online dating site in Italy, this would be the one that I would recommend.

As I mention in my online dating e-book, just like the real world, there will be men or women who you will not click with or who don’t respond to your messages (or just disappear). There will be women or men who might only be interested in helping you to part with your money. That is life. Just keep sending out messages and reach out until you find the person you are looking for and get success. As is typical with online dating, expect a response rate of around 1-10% depending on how good your profile is. (response rate = people who will respond back to you to whom you sent an introduction message).

2. OkCupid

OkCupid should be your second option in Italy. While it is not as popular as it once was, you can find some diamonds in the rough.

3. Tinder

Tinder is perfect for people between the ages of 18 and 40. This app is all about the “swipe life.” You download the app and swipe right if you’re interested in someone and swipe left if you’re not interested in someone. Make sure you have a good photo for this app because the photo is the thing that matters the most in getting good dating leads.
