In the past 28 years, over 4,100 Jewish singles found their marriage partner through a single platform - and the numbers behind how they connected defy every assumption in Jewish dating.
Most singles today are trapped in a world of split-second dismissals based on a single photo. On this platform, 65% of all marriages were initiated by the woman - and 77% of those couples were living in different cities, states, or countries when they first reached out to each other.
What you're about to read may permanently change how you think about finding your Jewish soulmate!
Going Beyond The Swipe
Many singles today have quietly walked away from the swiping world of online dating. At JWed.com, this comes as no surprise.
Launched 28 years ago, JWed's very purpose has always been to create as non-dismissive a dating environment as possible for Jewish singles.
Derek Saker, Co-Founder and CEO of JWed, says "We always found it alarming that with many dating platforms, singles often spent more time deciding which loaf of bread to buy, than the time invested in creating a meaningful profile!"
In today's Jewish dating world, everyone needs to put their best foot forward - but not everyone finds it natural to market themselves. JWed's unique profile tools allow every single to present a one-of-a-kind, holistic picture of themselves - in whichever way speaks to them.
From VoiceIntro - where members add an audio introduction to their profile - to FriendsIntro, where a member can invite others to post positive reflections about them - JWed's features ensure every single goes far beyond the generic and dismissive.
Adam from Manchester, who met his wife Lisa from New York on JWed, comments "What I found most inviting about Lisa’s profile was her hilarious audio intro - full of wit and good humor! It's such a key part of who Lisa is, which immediately grabbed my attention, and which I would otherwise have never known from generic profiles out there."

Going Beyond Old Thinking
Over 65% of JWed marriages are ones where the woman made the first move. In the Jewish dating world - and particularly in traditional and observant communities - this is especially significant.
At JWed, Jewish women of all backgrounds feel empowered to take the initiative, and do not simply wait to be found.
Going Beyond Local
The focus for JWed members is finding their true Jewish soulmate - not just the best available option within driving distance.
Derek Saker met his own wife, Devorah, on JWed. He was living in New York; she was in London. Their marriage reflects a platform-wide reality: almost 77% of JWed marriages are between singles who lived in different cities, states, or countries at the time they first connected.
Take Samantha, who had recently moved from the U.S. to Israel and Simon, who lived in London. Both had been dating for some time, and neither had looked much beyond the walls of Jerusalem or across the Atlantic Ocean.
Then, as Samantha shares, "When I saw Simons profile, his insights, Jewish outlook, and the lovely photos with his niece and nephews - even though he was in the U.K. - I decided to reach out to him." It turned out Simon was already seriously considering such a move, and flew out to meet Samantha in Israel after just a few weeks of communication. Samanthan and Simon have been married for just under a year, and now live in Modi'in.
