Navigating the Ukrainian dating sites and agencies should be a scary prospect for someone new to pursuing Ukrainian women. It is a virtual minefield where you have no idea who to trust.
What is even scarier is what you’ll find if you search the web for reviews about these sites for yourself! From my own searches I suspect that some of the scammiest agencies spend the most on manipulating the search engines.
That makes it even harder to know who to trust.
Having now said that, I obviously need to give you a reason to trust me, right?
Well, having been around that block a few times, I can tell you a
little about some of the sites and agencies I’ve encountered in one form or another, both the good and bad. So my reviews are based upon direct EXPERIENCE.
But for most of my reviews I give good, common-sense reasons for my positive or negative reviews… reasons that you can verify for yourself.
I DO receive affiliate commissions from some sites if you click through to them and order anything, but I can reasonably demonstrate that this does not skew my objectivity by pointing out two facts: (1) some of the sites for whom I offer critical reviews offer lucrative affiliate programs. I am often directly approached by pay-per-letter sites with generous affiliate programs, and I reject them the moment I see that they charge by the letter. If money were the driving force here, I would be an AnastasiaDate affiliate and singing their praises. (2) I offer very positive reviews for some sites that offer no affiliate agreements. These two facts combined should demonstrate that I am not in the practice of trading my conscience for profit.
By the way, some of the Ukrainian dating sites and agencies I review negatively have a reputation for intimidating critical reviewers, often threatening to sue for defamation. In an attempt to insulate myself from accusations of defamation, I carefully choose the wording in my negative reviews so as to avoid the potential legal hassles. If a review sounds negative, but a little “fuzzy”, you may need to read a little between the lines.
Do you really need dating sites?
A page primarily linking to reviews of Ukrainian dating sites is a reasonable place to consider whether such sites are even really necessary.
Why do we use dating sites at all, let alone Ukrainian dating sites?
Obviously one big reason is that our local options don’t inspire us very much and going online expands our pool of candidates.
But what if this wasn’t the case? What if your everyday life was so filled with beautiful, intelligent, SINGLE women that you barely had time or even the inclination to bother searching online?
Well, that’s what Live in Ukraine! is all about. Go check that out as part of your research into this world of Ukrainian dating sites!

Note: These reviews of Ukrainian dating sites were accurate when they were initially written, and I attempt to keep them up to date, but prices, service offerings, and other details often change without my knowledge. Having said that, some things rarely change much: Integrity and excellence of service. Ukrainian dating sites that offer good honest service will usually continue to do so as long as they are under the same ownership/management, and those that are scammy and crooked will usually continue that way.
Russian-Ukrainian-Women.com
Since Elena’s Models’ “upgrade”, Russian-Ukrainian-Women.com is the runaway best in the world of Ukrainian dating sites, offering great service, an ENORMOUS database, many beautiful Ukrainian women, very strict scam control, and very competitive prices. Click HERE to read my full review of this site.
Match Guaranty
One of the newer Ukrainian dating sites is Match Guaranty. They are getting some notice as a result of many new Youtube videos from Joe Rickards promoting the site. They are firmly opposed to typical pay-per-letter agency scams and some of the videos even interview former scam agency employees to get a real behind-the-scenes look at the scammy business. But is their service any better? Click HERE to read my full review of Match Guaranty.
Bachelors Abroad Reality TV Show
OK, this isn’t a dating site, but this nationally televised reality TV series on the subject of international dating/matchmaking will probably be of great interest to most readers of this site, so I wanted to give it my thorough review.

Elena’s Models – Review
I’ve used this site for years and always found them honest and effective, and is easily one of the best. It used to be THE best, but their recent site “upgrade” was a big step backwards in the opinion of everyone I’ve asked. Click HERE to read my full review of this site.
A Pretty Woman
To use this site you will need to wear sunglasses to shield your retinas from the gaudy bright pink background of every page. But if you can get past that, it is one of the best Ukrainian dating sites and has gorgeous Ukrainian women and honest services. Click HERE to read my full review of this site.
Ukraine Date/Russian Cupid
These two sites, and many others, are part of the umbrella operation, www.cupidmedia.com, which specializes in international online matchmaking. Click here to read my review of these Ukrainian dating sites.
A Foreign Affair/AFA
I went on AFA’s group tour to Kyiv and loved it. However, subsequent experience suggests that their letter services are highly suspect. Click here to read more about AFA.
AnastasiaWeb
This is a big site with many local affiliate agencies throughout Ukraine, and many affiliate sites. If you do any web searching on your own, you WILL find this site, or one of its mirror sites. BUT I STRONGLY recommend that you NOT use any of their services without reading my full review first. Click here to read the full review.
Kyiv Connections
Kyiv Connections is a fairly unique stand-alone agency in downtown Kyiv. They are one of the rare honest agencies in the business and offer competitive prices for most of there services, but are considerably overpriced for their Matchmaker service. Click here to read the full review.
Kherson Girls
Kherson Girls is both a local agency based in Kherson and a small network of agencies throughout Ukraine. Although they are usually rated as an honest agency, their prices are very high and policies very restrictive. Click here to read the full review.
Tinder in Ukraine
Although not specifically among Ukrainian dating sites, Tinder has become a serious player in the matchmaking world, and this is no less the case in international settings. You’re in Kyiv, you’re looking for a date, what better way than to fire up Tinder and see who is nearby that you might hook up with for a drink… Why not?
But what can you expect when using Tinder in Kyiv? Is it really a good way to meet prospects? Click here to read the answers!
