Matchmaking was solely done among relatives and friends. The extent of their reach was very limited, so the choices were limited.
Marriages arranged among relatives/friends required a lot of compromises, and this, in turn, led to issues in the life of the couple, as a compromised marriage will naturally carry a huge risk. Some common ones include: matching an educated person to an uneducated person, insufficient income for the groom, the demand of dowry, etc.
With the birth of the internet, matchmaking through online matrimonial sites became a household practice in most of the big cities.
With the advent of online matchmaking sites, there were cheers among the youngsters who wanted to get married, since they could finally come out of their relatives’ box to see a larger pool of eligible men and women. This seemed to reduce the traditional matrimonial issues of getting married to the limited choices of relatives and friends.
With online matrimony matchmaking becoming a huge success, newer and newer online sites were mushrooming all around the nation.
Once the big players had captured a strong market share in the online matrimony space, their pricing model became very un-affordable to many, who were eventually forced to compromise once again to find their match within the service time frame they could afford, and you know what happened next—the same issue of a compromised marriage!
Free Indian Matrimony was launched with the sole purpose of eliminating the issues surrounding online matrimony—that is, to provide unlimited matrimony services without you having to make any compromises in your search for a soulmate!
Marriages were said to happen in Heaven in the past, but in the present high-tech world, this saying has to be rewritten as:
Well, yes, this is the ironic world we are in today, where the old mainframe computers have shrunk into our palms in the form of smartphones and tablets, yet more powerful than ever. The future of this technology is almost unimaginable. In the past decade or so, we have seen men and women being matched from one corner of the world to another with the power of the internet. The horizon of marriages was redrawn rapidly, with boundaries broken, and we have seen total strangers meeting with each other and finally ending up in a happy wedlock. This is an amazing change of culture for our Indian families. This matchmaking was not possible before the era of the internet, except for some love marriages that happened through conventional pen-pal friendships.
While we are certainly here to embrace matchmaking through the internet, we have to also take notice that, of late, this method is being exploited by some profit-oriented organizations to make as much money as possible out of those who would like to get married through an internet-based matchmaking process. If we look at the pricing model of any popular matrimony websites today, we can quickly see that the model is structured in such a way as to squeeze maximum profit before anyone can even find their best match. In early 2000, we were allowed to call unlimited phone numbers and send unlimited emails till we find our best match; however, now this flexible model is rarely seen, even in a new matrimony start-up.
This means that if you need to broaden your search, you need to pay more! We are afraid of the kind of social problems that this will lead to, because in order to save money, there can be cases where the prospective bride or groom will rush to finalize their partners instead of doing a thorough search to find the right one. Such compromises will lead to greater post-marriage problems, all purely stemming from these profit-oriented business models!
This rang us an alarm that these organizations are out there to fish maximum money from this cult of finding matches over the internet. What’s more, in the present day, where all prices are skyrocketing for some valid economic reasons, is that these organizations are interested in cashing in on this inflation spree without any good reasons. While we do not condemn such business practices, we also would like to be fair to the general public to pay only the right price to find their dream partners, and not left helpless in the hands of these unscrupulous organizations, whose aim is to squeeze out.
Therefore, we would like to prove through this website that it will not cost much to find your dream partner through the internet because there is no need for huge capital to keep the matrimony websites up and running. Hence, we have launched this website with the minimum capital necessary, to prove this theory, and have decided to allow all members to contact each other free for life through email or phone!
This is akin to Wikipedia, which is determined to feed the world with all knowledge possible, absolutely for free. Therefore, we are giving a life-long assurance here that we will not be changing our business model to a paid one at any time in the future. This is not going to be a sales or marketing gimmick to draw visitors to our site; it is, instead, a permanent guarantee, as long as we own this website. This is why we have even named our site FreeIndianMatrimony.com to make our non-profit objective engraved on the domain name itself! We hope to fund our operations through donations and other small advertisements.
Like all other non-profit sites, such as Wikipedia, etc., we can only launch sites with a noble objective, and it depends on the general public to respect the idea and objectives to make it a grand success. We will be greatly appreciative if you can give your unwavering support to this site to make our wishes come true. If this site becomes popular, our future generations will be able to marry their best choice of partner, instead of rushing into their marriage. Hence, if you like our motto, please do recommend it to all your friends. We certainly need your blessings to keep this site free for life, as we want it to be.
