Friend Finder uses the three-level membership model. As a guest you can browse through the ads and see a small photo, a brief description and the age of each member. Guests can see only 20 ads while browsing.

Tip: Try changing some of the parameters in the "Search" window, like the age range or the State. This way you'll be able to see different set of ads. Selecting the "Browse" link in the main menu will also give you some better control over the geographical location of the ads for some countries.

Note: Most of the photos are very explicit and uncensored, even in the thumbnails that you see when browsing the ads!

Guests can also use the Chat room to talk to other members that are currently online.

As a guest, you'll be able to browse the ads but not view them, i.e. you can't see all the details in the ads and you can't send messages to the members. So it's a good idea to go ahead and join as a free member by placing your own ad.

To place your ad you'll have to provide various details about you, your interests, your idea of the ideal partner etc. Filling out the registration forms takes a few minutes. Once you've done this, you'll have the status of a Free (standard) member. Note that your ad will not become visible immediately - it usually takes a day or two.

Tip: Your ad may be denied approval if you try to abuse the system or submit an empty profile.

As a Free Member you'll be able to browse all ads and to view one of them at a time. You'll also be able to receive messages from other members who want to get in touch with you.
