During the first week of September 2004 I finally decided to find the lady of my dreams through internet dating and subscribed to eHarmony with no results for one month.
I decided to learn more about and purchased six books on Internet Dating including "The Ultimate Mans Guide to Internet Dating" which is the one that is helping me the most. This book is geared towards men and it is based on 18 tips which had made me aware of very important details that otherwise I had missed or learned only after long time experiences.
In addition, it gave me great advice and direct help with my profile which I feel now reflects very well my personality in a way that is very effective.
Even if I am a Latino, 65 years old and I have some unusual activities for my age, I am receiving plenty of replies from quality American ladies proper to my personality and life style.
The book gave me sight to pick the two best online companies in the US.
It didn't took me a lot of my time to read important effective information in this "Ultimate Mans Guide to Internet Dating". Some of the other books wasted plenty of my time with useless blah blah blah information.
In my opinion, this is the very best of the six books I bought.

I wish someone had written this book years ago, it would have saved me so much time and frustration! I think it presents a very fair and balanced look atdating today.

I especially like the fact that this guy found the love of his life online and it's not just a "How-To-Pick-Up Girls" manual.

If you're a guy looking for a good place to start that can save you months of trial and error GET THIS BOOK!

This book is a complete waste of money. It contains no information that a reasonably intelligent man (or woman) couldn't easily figure out on his or her own, or discover on internet dating sites for free. The authors are believers in astrology, and devote a substantial chunk of the book to providing astrological information. As you can probably tell, I do not believe in astrology, but despite that, the astrological information in the book would also be very quickly available at no cost to any minimally proficient Google user.

I decided to try Internet dating because I am so busy with work, I could never find the time (or energy) to go to clubs to meet women. I was listening to a local radio morning show and heard these guys talk about Internet dating and bought their book. You can get good looking women to e-mail you, and I found the key to get them to e-mail me back when I emailed them. If you follow what this book says, you will have dates in about 2 weeks! I have had 10 dates with great looking as well as fun to be around women. I now have one great gal I am dating and when she read the book, her quote was: If more guys read this book, she wouldn't have had to read so many stupid emails!! Thank you Ultimate Man's Guide for a great read and a better understanding of what women like.

The closest to valuable information this book has is: The % of emails you received compared to the number of times your profile is viewed. There is nothing else here that isn't already listed on most dating web sites themselves. Don't waste your money, just read the information provided by the site(s) that you are a member of.

It also appears that this book was sponsored by two specific companies (3 sites) as their name appears all over this book, and the 100's of other sites are ignored.

I was surprised to see that this book was only written by two people. It has the disjointed feel of being written by a large group of people. It jumps from talking down to people only looking for sex, to praising how easily you can get sex, to talking down to people whom consider religious compatibility important. And that's just one example. I truly thought that it was written by at least five different authors, and edited by people who didn't speak to each other.

It was amusing to read all the reviews on this book and see the wide diversity of opinions. I know one of the authors (yes, they are real guys who happen to have the same name). He received over 350 unsolicited emails from women in about four months and had dates every other night. I saw the emails, and the pictures of the women who sent them. Some were average, but many were very attractive; a few were supermodel types. He's a real man's man who actually met and married the perfect woman for him after he wrote this book. He didn't intend the book for women (they've got plenty of their own), and he didn't intend it to help guys find some woman's notion of romance. He intended it to help guys find whatever they want from online dating. So what's the problem?

These guys make a great case for finding Miss Right or Miss Right Now on the Internet. There's lots of common-sense advice that literally saved me hundreds of hours in wasted time and thousands of dollars in wasted dating money. The "Women of Internet Dating" section had some very funny stereotypes and I even learned something from their astrology section. Following their advice helped me find my future wife in less than 30 days! This little book is worth it's weight in gold.

This book is little more than a pamphlet. It's written totally for men in the younger age brackets. I also bought and read I Can't Believe I'm Buying This Book: A Commonsense Guide to Successful Internet Dating. That book is much better, and has much broader scope and depth. Save your money on this one.

This book is very easy to read and gives great tips on how to use the internet to get the best results. If you have not used the internet for dating or you have not had huge success with it, you must check this book out.

This brief 100 pages book wastes 25 pages on horoscopes, zodiac signs, what your sign says about you, what signs mean in women, what signs you should date. What do ancient superstitions have to do with the Internet and why does it consume 1/4 of the book? The remainder of the book dispenses fairly obvious advice like woman types: "some women are after money" and "if you marry a women with children, you will be a step father" duh! Also a chapter on how to date when you are already Married, nice. This book mentions NOTHING AT ALL about the Internet. They just slapped Internet on the title to peddle an existing book on dating, except that it is useless as a general dating book as well! I got this at the library so I didn't pay for it, but I still feel like I was CHEATED, out of the hour of my life I wasted reading this garbage. The worst, avoid at all costs, even for free at the library. Horoscopes! Gawd.
