Ever since Craiglist shut down its personals section and Backpage followed suit, a large contingent of the internet population dependent on both of these platforms to find companionship was suddenly left wanting. Luckily, they didn’t have to want for long. When a vacuum occurs, something will inevitably appear to fill it, and that was what exactly happened in this situation. Today there are several good alternatives to Craigslist Personals. So if you’re one of the many who was disappointed when it departed from the internet, keep reading; we’re going to take a detailed look at some corners of the internet to find easy hookups.

Pernals

Pernals is the top contender for those who are missing Craiglist Personals. In fact, it was developed specifically to fill the niche that Craigslist Personals departed from. Like Personals, this is a classified site that lets users post new ads and reply to existing ones. It’s downloadable as an app for all mobile devices and features a svelte and intuitive user interface that is simple to use. Because its modern facade has drawn quite a few users in their 20s and 30s, making it exciting among young users. After you download the app you can begin posting ads and browsing through listings in your area to find singles. Where Pernals outshines Craigslist Personals is its messaging capabilities. If you find someone you like, you can initiate a chat and start communicating straight away.

BeNaughty

When it comes to classified or dating sites, BeNaughty definitely ranks as one of the more female-friend ones. It works like this - men sign up to the site for a price, but women don’t pay anything. Women can then message the men who have signed up. It’s kind of like Bumble, but with a lot sexier intentions. The website displays dozens of users at once and lets you Like them and initiate chats. We think this is actually better than scrolling through Craiglists’ user-profiles one by one. Unfortunately, BeNaughty doesn’t have a free trial, but you can test the site for a small fee of $2.97 for three days. If you like it, they have a number of different pricing tiers and discount packages that you can take advantage of.

AdultFriendFinder

While not technically a classified site, AdultFriendFinder (AFF), is still an amazing resource if you want to spice up your life and find someone to have some fun with. It has a huge community of open-minded people who are looking for a variety of different relationships. Because of this, you’re almost guaranteed to find someone on the same page as you who is willing to meet up.Aside from traditional dating features, AFF has a number of different features not found on other sites. There are a number of different blogs and forums that you can browse through and write on. For ultimate fun, you can watch live cams of members getting up to all kinds of no good.

Reddit R4R

Reddit R4R is the place to look if you’re looking for casual sex, dirty chats, and anything in between. At the time of writing, the R4R subreddit has almost 420,000 subscribers, which is a lot of warm bodies all looking for some form of sexy communication. R4R functions very similarly to Craigslist Personals. It’s anonymous and entirely free to use. Users can write and reply to posts directly within the subreddit, or message users privately by clicking on their username.
