- Quantity with quality
If gotthenerve.com was a grocery store, it would be a store combining the variety and convenience of a supermarket with the quality and personality of a mom and pop shop.
gotthenerve.com offers 6 types of relationships you can look for and thus saves you time and money. No longer do people looking for more than 1 relationship type have to hop from site to site, creating different profiles and making separate payments for each service.
- Ease of Use
Usability was our first concern, not our last. The clear and logical design of gotthenerve.com allows you to find what you're looking for without needing a map or navigation system. That's a real relief from sites that even need a guide for their help-section.
- Down to earth
gotthenerve.com is accessible for people only over 18. Being 18 means being an adult. Not necessarily grown up, but an adult. So, after 18 years on this earth, who knows you better than yourself? Do you need a quiz to find out whether you're a perfectionist or a lazy bum (especially when the difference between those two is so immense)? Can answering 8 quiz-questions really tell you whether your girlfriend is cheating on you? Will you start selling your goods and chattels when your "Are you risking an early death?" quiz breaks the news that you won't be around much longer?
- Friend, not friend-finder
gotthenerve.com is not a match-maker or friend-finder. We do not find and "deliver" partners to your "front door" after testing the harmony of our members' profiles, but rather provide the tool for you to find your perfect match or friends that fit your interests.
- Personality self-made
We don't ask you 500 need-to-answer-them-all-questions and generate your personality's portrait based on the results. We want to allow our members to present themselves their own way and thus allow them to release as much information as they want to. This allows our members to differentiate their profile from others by giving it their own personal touch and consequently allow them to stand out of the crowd. If a profile, as a result of a questionnaire that every member has to answer without being able to skip a question, tells you everything about the person you're supposed to be hooked up with, what is left to find out and talk about?
- Privacy despite publicity
According to other sites, "Adding a photo will help you get up to 7 times more responses than members who go photo-less". That may sound good to some people, but may discourage others. Let's make a little - most likely exaggerated but still possible - calculation. My profile is so appealing to other members that I currently get about 10 responses a week without posting a photo. That means, if I add a photo, I will get 70 responses a week? That may look good at first sight but in the long term it might be a little annoying.
Another thought: some people might not believe it but there are a lot of people out there who rate personality #1 and physical appearance #2. We are not only referring to people looking for friends, activity or travel partners, but also people looking for any sort of dating. Meaning: those people don't need a picture to choose their partner or want to get to know people who have that mindset.
Either way gotthenerve.com has the perfect solution: the option to have your profile and photos posted to the public or viewable by invitation only. This option gives members the possibility to "hide" and to control who is able to view their profile and photos.
- Face it
Getting responses and the amount of responses depend on your profile. The question therefore is: How do you come across? We won't tell you, but our members will, if you've got the nerve. We provide the voluntary option to get your profile and/or your photos rated! If you're rated high, be happy. If not, be happy too and don't take it personal. Consider your ratings as a little hint and think about a makeover.
