Velama Matrimony

How it Works

How this matrimonial site works?

www.velamamatrimony.net is designed on the principle of “simplicity yet smartness”. The website is simple to use and navigate but has smart features to help you find your life partner. In addition to the matrimonial profiles, we have integrated it with social media like twitter (facebook coming soon!). Our search function is simply yet powerful and we have several quick search links as well. Some of the key features of the website are described below.

Features

Registration

Registration is a very simple, 1-step process using the form on the home page. All you need is to specify your email address, choose a handle and password and accept the terms of use. This creates your account on the website, which you can use to Sign-in in future. Registration step then takes you to the matrimonial profile submission form, where you can enter all your personal and lifestyle details. It is also possible to entirely bypass this registration step and still be able to submit the profile, by signing in to the website using your twitter account. To do this you need to click on the button “Sign in with twitter” on the top right corner. This will ask you to authorise www.velamamatrimony.net to use your twitter account to log in. Once you accept that, you can login using your twitter account. This will also take you to the profile submission form.

Sign in

The Sign in box is located on the top right corner of the home page. Sign in requires the email address you specified during the registration and your password.

Forgot password link takes you to a page where you can specify your email address and we will email your password to that email address. This email address must be the same that you used during registration.

If you select the “Remember me” box in the sign-in form, next time you visit the website, your email and password will automatically be populated for you. You can simply click the Sign-in button and log in.

Sign-in with twitter button lets you sign-in using your twitter account.

Search

Search function is available on all the pages of the website to make it convenient for you to look up matrimonial ads from any page. Search is intentionally kept simple to use. It is a free-text search of all active matrimony ads in the database. Type keywords in the search box and we will show all the matrimonial profiles in which one or more of those keywords appear. All fields of the profiles are searched. If there are more than one keyword are specified, then all profiles having any one of the keywords are shown. The idea is to show more profiles to give you more choices, not less. You can click on any search result to see the member’s complete profile. We do not hide any profile details (including email addresses) whether or not you are a member and signed in.

We also have some quick search links on the home page which show all matrimonial ads in the specific categories e.g. hindu matrimonials, etc.

After you Sign in

There are many features available after you register and sign-in. You can search for matrimonials and see the tweets of any member

You can search for matrimonial profiles and tag any member you want to follow up. We show all tagged profiles in your account under “Saved Profiles” heading.

We also list all the others members who have saved your profile in their accounts

There is a feature to send private messages to other members. You can view any private messages from others members to you.

One of the convenient features available to you as a member is to be able to write tweets which are then automatically visible to all other members who have you in their Saved Profiles list. Tweets are a great way to update your status, write your thoughts or write about what’s happening in your world. This helps others know a little bit more about you than what your profile can tell. Use tweets to “market” yourself to prospective partners. You also see tweets automatically of other members that you have saved into your account.

Other standard features like updating your matrimonial profile, password or photo are all available when you sign-in to your account.

We are constantly adding features and improving the website. We encourage all constructive feedback and welcome your opinion.
