Asian penpals for friendship or romance!

Home		How to Find Asian Penpals
		There are many sites available today where you can meet other people for friendly conversation, and perhaps a little long distance romance, too. But we are biased toward our own site, CliqueFriends.com. Certainly, CliqueFriends is not the largest penpal and personal ad site around -- the "ad factories" boast hundreds of thousands of listings. But CliqueFriends ranks near the top in "current" listings, which is what is important when looking for a penpal. With people changing email addresses as often as some people change their underwear, listings go stale quickly...sometimes as quickly as a week or two, if not sooner. For sites whose basic purpose is linking penpals through email, stale (or incorrect) listings are a big problem. Furthermore, traditional "penpal lists" do not allow for people to say "I've already found enough penpals" or "I'm not interested in penpaling any more" -- instead, their old listings are permanently mixed in with the active penpalers. With its constant pruning of its listing (a member confirms their address at registration and must send at least one note through the system every 30 days or else they are removed),CliqueFriends has a list that ranks among the top of all sites -- regardless of size. To keep the list current, CliqueFriends attracts about 15-20 new listings a day through space advertising, search engines, and link exchanges. Other excellent aspects of the implementation are (1) the site is free (many sites have a free posting policy but it costs to contact others) and (2) email addresses are concealed so that users can use their primary email address without disclosing it to others (makes it easier for users to keep up on mail without worrying about spam). If you want to go beyond the free basic service, you can become a Premium member for a trivial $4.00 for a month. Premium members can contact more new members per day, can post their photo along with their listing, and access some of the advanced features. But for most penpaling, the free service is just fine. Lastly, CliqueFriends has included a free CliqueChat technology chat room. This makes a great way to turn an email-based friendship with your penpals into a true, real-time chat.
