Why so few search results?

Improving short results

The #1 rule. Don't be rigid. Be flexible.

Your have rightly your non-negotiable. But but don't constrain yourself elsewhere.

The reason you could be erroneously receiving few search results can include:

Too Restrictive in Search Criteria

By example, only looking within narrow age range of

  • Age

  • Height

  • Background

  • Religious outlook

Too Restrictive in Location

For JWed members the #1 focus is finding that person with the character and personality traits you seek, the Jewish life you wish to share, the fun, the interests, the important things you wish to share with your soulmate.

Location is of course important. But so is finding the right one. Not just just second or third best!

Most of us seek the “perfect match” and hope he or she lives around the corner.

While completely understandable - that is just not the reality today.

And in fact, the mind-set to only look “local” - so often leads to dating stagnation.


We think it is very important to bear in mind that a significant majority of JWed's over 3,700 marriages took place between members who were out of city/state and even country.

JWed enables single and sincere marriage-minded Jews - whether from a major metropolitan city or from a small town - to meet one another, like never before.

Many see finding your soulmate – like looking for a needle in a haystack. At JWed we of course acknowledge it can be difficult – but you have to look beyond your immediate haystack, reach out your “natural” comfort zone and expand your horizons. Time and time again, this is how so many of our 3,700 JWed married members met.


So yes, while of course geography is important, we always encourage members to search way beyond their immediate location - where character, shared life goals, personality and other virtues, are so often far more important, than just location.

If two people meet and find so much in common, both current and their plans for the future - geography, however challenging, can be overcome. We see it in over 3,700 married and averaging 8 marriages a month!

We think it important to bear in mind, that over 70% of JWed's 3,700+ marriages have been between two people out-of-city, out-of-state and out-of-country. Yes many do meet and marry people more locally, but far more meet their soulmate, that needle-in-a-haystack with someone sometimes very far away geographically, but intimately close in attraction, shared life goals, desired character traits, shared Jewish outlook etc.

Too Passive!

The fact is amongst JWed's 3,700+ married members, in almost all cases, both were subscribers.

Don't join JWed if you are going to be passive. We will be the first to acknowledge, you will waste your time.

Important to also mention, JWed has been nowhere more empowering and enabling and successful especially for single Jewish females.

We see it in the fact that over 65% of JWed's 3,700+ marriages were initiated by women!

What we mean by this, is that in 65% of JWed marriages - it was the female JWed member who first reached out, rather than the male member.

In our "traditional" Jewish dating world, it is often the woman who finds herself playing second-fiddle as it were, waiting for the phone to ring.

JWed empowers Jewish singles- male and female - to take charge and take the dating driving seat!
