Match.com first appeared in April 1995 as an online classifieds tool. With limited features and usability, Match.com soon attracted a community of over 60,000 singles in less than a year, quickly becoming a leading online matchmaking site.
By early 1996, nearly 500,000 members were finding each other at Match.com, and engagement and marriage announcements started to pour in. On March 30, 1996, the first baby of a Match.com-inspired marriage was born, and to date they have confirmed at least 50 more babies, almost 1200 marriages, and hundreds of thousands of relationships. Today, Match.com is the leading (and largest) subscription-based online dating site, offering adults worldwide a fun, private and secure environment for meeting other singles. Match.com claims more than 15 million members with profiles posted who are active users.

In January 2006, Match.com launched MindFindBind™, a new program it created with the help of Dr. Phil McGraw. Created specifically for Match.com, MindFindBind™ is a Web-based program designed to educate singles about the ins and outs of dating and relationships. It includes more than 50 new Internet-only video segments with Dr. Phil that aim to inspire and enlighten, workshops that are a lot more fun than work, an occasional audio blog, and provocative dating tips and techniques. Participants can move through the program at their own pace, in the privacy of their own homes.
Dr. Phil is the author of six #1 New York Times Bestsellers including the current #1 blockbuster Love Smart: Find the One You Want - Fix the One You Got.
K. Couric of the Today Show said "Match.com is enormously popular and singles are finding it a great place to meet appropriate suitors." 
In January 2007, Match.com went through an extensive upgrade to improve both the site's look and functionality.
