Welcome to the Russian Meeting Place's free Russian and Western personals, for single Russians and Westerners who want to meet one another in a free and comfortable environment.

Meet Russian women (and Western men). Browse and place personal ads for free.

There are many places on the internet that offer expensive ways for Russians and Westerns to meet. There are “marriage agencies” that “sell” women’s addresses for $5 or $10 per woman’s address and more. We wanted to provide a way for people to meet without having to pay a lot of money.

We decided to create Russian personals on this website as a service so that Russians and Westerners could meet inexpensively (and for free).

There are 2 places in the Russian Meeting Place that offer Russian Personals:

1) The Russian Photo Personals: Our more extensive and more advanced photo personals which include a larger number of photo personals and which are more regularly updated (www.russianmeetingplace.com/personals )

2) The FREE Russian Personals (profiles with only mailing addresses and telephone numbers): Our smaller Free Photo Personals, but these women only have mailing addresses and telephone numbers available, and not email addresses. (www.russianmeetingplace.com/free_personals)

Here is a description of each of the two Russian personals sections:

1) The Russian Photo Personals: The photo personals area on the Russian Meeting Place website is a larger and more extensive photo personals section (than the free personals section) and contains many more profiles and advanced features. It can be found here:  www.russianmeetingplace.com/personals.html. Several new profile are added here every week (many more than in the 2 free personals sections.)

These photo personals use professional matchmaking software similar to other personals websites like Match.com and Kiss.com. This section includes many more photo profiles to search through than in the free personals. These personals were also free, but because of the time and expense that it is requiring from us to maintain this part of the website, to be able to continue to offer this service, we needed to ask everyone who wanted to use these Russian Photo Personals to pay a nominal fee of $9.25 per month for unlimited access to these personals. This $9.25 per month helps us pay for the costs for maintaining the personals). In these personals, in addition to being able to browse a person’s photo as well as read their profile, you will be able to search profiles by age, country, interests and other details. You can also see a second photo of the person. In these personals, the mailing address of each person is shown in their profile. You may contact the person by email by registering with the program, and then sending a message to that person (which will be automatically sent to the intended person’s email address by the software).

2) The FREE Russian Personals (profiles with only mailing addresses and telephone numbers):  These free Russian personals are found here: (www.russianmeetingplace.com/free_personals). Only the mailing addresses (and often telephone numbers) of these women were available, and so they do not have email addresses where you can contact them.

We have two different Russian personals here at the Russian Meeting Place: the FREE Russian Personals, and the Russian Photo Personals. If you would like a larger selection of Russian-Western photo profiles to search, and the ability to search by photo and other criteria, then you can browse through our separate Photo Personals, which can be found at: www.russianmeetingplace.com/personals.htm. The Photo Personals are different than our FREE Russian Personals. Read below for more information about our FREE Russian Personals:
