UpHook consists of many features that make it stand out from other personals/dating sites. At UpHook, you can:

• Search for personal/dating posts.
• Post your own information.
• Send messages through our website.

In addition, UpHook offers:

• No costs for anything -- it's all free. You don't pay a dime.
• No registration-- you don't have to remember another username & password.
• Simple design-- no distracting clutter. The site is clean-cut and simple.
• Ability to flag posts that don't belong (spam, fake ads, etc).

Searching is easy. Simply click the "Search" button on the title bar to begin. On the next screen, you will see the main search page. Input information about YOURSELF. All of the fields are optional. however, you will find the best matches by listing something in all fields. When you are done, click the "search" button at the bottom and your results will be displayed. You should see a list of pictures and a title of the post. You may click any of the photos for a larger image. Or you may click the "view post" link to see the full posting.

When viewing a full post, you also have the option of sending the poster a message. This should be used responsibly-- the originating IP address of all messages may be recorded. In addition, the "flag" option will be found at the bottom of all posts, allowing you to report bad posts.




Posting is a very easy process. Click the "Post" button on the title bar to begin. On the next screen you will see the main post page which will allow you to enter information. Follow the heading titles; you will first enter information about your desired match (not yourself). This will be used to filter people based on their characteristics. In the next section, you will enter the actual post information. The "title" section should be concise and eye-catching, since the field length is restricted. In the next section, include whatever information you want. The site will accept some HTML tags, which will allow you to add your own images and customize text (bold, italic, etc). Unnecessary and insecure HTML tags have been disabled and will be filtered. After you finish, simply click the "create post" button. (Don't forget to enter the verification phrase!)

A verification email will then be sent to the email address you provided, which will allow you to activate and edit your post. Posts that aren't verified will NOT show up in searches, so be sure to check your email shortly after creating your post.

I am very interested in receiving feedback from the site. The site has a simple theme and I ask that people consider that aspect when providing feedback. For example, it is probably a waste of time to write me an email suggesting that I add complex chat functionality to the site. However, suggestions dealing with improving the flagging function or the messaging system will be helpful. Thanks!
