    Abstract: A system and method for verifying online dating profiles is provided. A profile is retrieved for a user on an online dating site. A social network page is identified for the user. Information about the user is accessed from the social network page, wherein the information includes one or more fields of metadata. The metadata from at least one of the fields on the social network page is compared with metadata from a corresponding field of the online dating site. A determination is made as to whether the metadata of the social network page matches the metadata of the online dating site. A certification status of the metadata is assigned to at least one of the fields on the online dating site. A certified status is assigned to the metadata when a match occurs. An uncertified status is assigned to the metadata when no match occurs.
