Who is signed up on Alt.com in Australia?

Exclusively on DatingScout: online member numbers for dating services are usually far off, so we estimate how many people are really on Alt.com from traffic data and interest, updated monthly, with history.

People who belong to the Alt.com adult dating community are lovers of BDSM and those who are beginners or curious, who would like to try bondage and fetish sex. Alt.com members are not necessarily singles - they can be individuals, couples, or groups who have unconventional taste in bed. They are erotic fans, and they are individuals who practice role-playing when having sex. Some members prefer to be the dominant one, while others like being submissive better. 

Becoming a member is not only for those who have been practising BDSM. Alt.com also welcomes newbies and those who are curious about this kind of sex dating. Most members just join to look for no-strings-attached sex. They are on the hunt for like-minded individuals who can satisfy their peculiar sexual fetishes.

Our field test

★★★★★ 4.0/5

“I am one of those individuals who has a peculiar taste when it comes to sex. Let’s go back to when I was younger.

When I was a teenager, my boyfriends were either cocky or jerky. I don’t know why, but I really find guys like those attractive and hot. Having a bad boy image, to me, adds oomph to their sex appeal.  Since then, I have been fascinated with those kinds of guys. Whenever I imagine bad boy stuff being done to me, to my body, I feel hot and sexy.

However, my recent boyfriends were conventional, so I had a boring sex life. Oftentimes, their being unadventurous in bed led to our breakup. And since then, I have been picky. For 2 years, I have been single. Luckily, I found a way to satisfy my unusual sexual cravings. When I learned that there are online dating sites that are for BDSM lovers, I searched for some, and among the first ones that I saw was Alt.com. Without second thoughts, I signed up. I began looking for hot guys and started contacting them.

I have been a premium member of Alt.com for 3 months now, and I can say that I don’t have regrets signing up. I met several interesting men, but now I have been consistently seeing one guy who just brings me into the world of pleasure every time we’re together.” - Roy, 32

Design & usability

The design of Alt.com is very plain and ordinary. The site uses only 3 colours - black for its background and yellow and white for its fonts. Since the site's background is dark, it may seem unpleasant for others. In addition to that, it seems like a lot is going on on some of the site's pages because some details are not properly sectioned, and there are pop-ups and embedded videos all over the page. 

On the other hand, the font style used on the site is not too big and not too small, which makes the words easy to read. In addition to that, even if the site's background is dark, the words still stand out because of their bright colours.

Special features

These special features will certainly help you make your online dating experience fun and help you effectively find a suitable match:

Alt.com FAQ

What is the difference between being a standard member and a premium member?

As a standard member, you only have access to chat rooms and magazine message boards. On the other hand, being a premium member, you have full access to members' profiles and different email functions.

What are the Popularity Privileges?

These are rewards that you get when you have many profile viewers. If a particular number of members view your profile within a period of three days, you will automatically have free access to 50 members' profiles. 

How can I receive Popularity Privileges?

There are many ways in which you can be rewarded with privileges, such as writing an interesting introduction, uploading photos, recording sexy videos, having many testimonials, and posting in Alt.com's magazine and advice lines.

How is being a guest different from being a member?

As a guest, you may enter the site and explore. However, to post something and to use the different features, you must be an Alt.com member.

What is the Purity Test all about?

The Purity Test has different questions that reveal how pure or naughty you are. 

I want to know more about the Fetish Consent Worksheet.

The Fetish Consent Worksheet is a form that can be printed. It is used by play partners when negotiating in a scene. By agreeing to participate in different fetish acts, both you and your play partner can have pleasure in your sexual adventures without confusion as to what each other has to expect.
