"CONNECTING" with a potential mate has never been this easy, thanks to 21st century technology which has opened a lot of avenues for people to meet and build a relationship. With so many singles getting more and more clueless on their search for that potential partner, Filipinos are now opening up to the idea of meeting a partner through the innovative "online dating."

Itzamatch.com is the hottest website ever to hit the online dating scene, and virtually everyone of legal age can sign up and meet guys and gals from around the country for an unlimited soiree. The site offers an "interactive dating experience" that will lure the Filipino singles market to this online matchmaking website.

In fact, the site promises better compatibility and more choices to meet people who share the same interest. Though physical qualities are important, compatibility is one of the best factors to make a relationship work.

The website takes away all the jitters and awkwardness often experienced when meeting a person for the first time. Members can look up a potential partner's credentials, chat with them, until they end up with a meeting of the minds and hearts - and meet up finally.

This is also the first website of its kind that is based in the Philippines. Made for Filipinos, the website will also organize exciting events and activities nationwide to make sure members meet and mingle until they find their perfect match.

Behind this ingenious website is Bigfoot Global Solutions, a global IT company that transferred its head office from New York City to Cebu due to the favorable IT environment of the island.

Joe Mercado, CEO of Itzamatch explains: "With today's single lifestyle, there are so many singles out there who don't have time for the conventional compatibility rituals of going to a bar or party and meeting new people or going out on a blind date. You have women who are smart, educated, pretty, yet they are loveless. With singles spending so much time working, finding the right partner is getting to be complicated. Now they can do it right at the comfort of their homes."

As a matchmaker, the website also promises to cook up activities that will bring together compatible members, such as a Singles Community page that will "guide" them through pointers about the right way of romance and art of meeting people.

Joe says their ultimate aim is to raise the bar to a multi-media platform using tv, online, mobile and the singles community scenes. The entire itzamatch.com interactive experience will further include live events and travel excursions.
