We gathered some information across the web to see if we could determine a tangible outcome from using OkCupid A-List.
Those who said they received more messages and/or went on more dates didn’t experience a shocking difference — something along the lines of a 10% increase. Others said their experience was about the same as before.
The bottom line seems to be: A-List gives you a “God view” of OkCupid and a leg-up in terms of being seen. But, ultimately, if people don’t find your profile attractive, you’re not any better off than you were before.
Here’s what it comes down to.
With a bad profile and OkCupid A-List, it’s possible you’ll just be rejected more and faster.
On the other hand, it’s possible to be extremely successful on OkCupid’s free version if you have an optimized profile.
Look: You don’t have to be Ryan Gosling to be considered highly attractive online. You just have to know how to sell you well.
