I am working on a matrimonial site for a small community and i am looking for a good clone of match.com or shadi.com

Same functionalities and searching features. Two kinds of membership one is premium and the other one is basic which is free have to be there.

I am not getting any good free clone from google search.

Please suggest me if you have any idea related this topic.

I am ok with small price for the script but i prefer free and open source.

Thank You!

Off the top of my head, I can only think of Dolphin & VLD personals. Dolphin is more for communities, so I'd check out VLD personals. It's obviously not a direct clone of match.com, but it's a good script (based on what my friend has told me).

VLD:

Demo (red) - this looks good for matrimonial site

I think I saw a free version of it floating on BHW a while ago.

you can always try and create one for your self using drupal

they have plenty of modules to use

Thanks for your reply.

vldpersonals is looking good but its a bit costly for me ($100 - $200) and nulled version is too risky.

@ geteasymoneynow

could you please guide me some plugins for drupal which will help me making a matrimonioal site?

i`d say go with vld.
it looks good and support is great
plus its pretty to customize it and add different functions to it
i know cause i`m using it all day long

Hmm ok in that case, check out this open source solution:

I used it to create a local dating site a few years ago. It's not great out of the box, and it requires a lot of customization. But as a free script, it's one of the best out there.

I wouldn't recommend Drupal unless you already are familiar with it to begin with. Otherwise it'll take you too much time to learn it.

If you wanna charge for membership though, definitely invest in a paid script with more robust features like VLD personals.

But if you've got a lot of time on your hands and the design skills, you could get an osdate skin (see link), and modify that.

look into osdate then i think its free
