Press Release Summary = Leading Indian Matrimonial website Launches refine search to
help its users in saving time and making it easier to find that perfect match.

Press Release Body = With Shaadi.com partnering you in your search for a suitable
groom / bride, you can rest assured it will be smooth sailing. Now, locating your
life partner on Shaadi.com has become even easier. Shaadi.com launches "Refined
Search" which is a search within search. This cuts short on a long drawn and time
consuming procedure to search for one's soul mate.

Imagine you begin your search for a potential husband/wife by putting in your
initial, most basic criteria and the website's search engine coughs up a long list
of those who match your criteria. In a way, it fine-tunes and offers you a defined
number of profiles but the still huge number of profiles to go through can also
prove to be a deterrent as it takes a lot of time. With the launch of the
search-in-search facility, Shaadi.com can now help you to further refine these
results by adding additional parameters like city and keyword search which helps you
in getting the most suitable potential singles. So, what you get is exactly what you
are looking for to a T!

According to Vibhas Mehta, Business Head - Shaadi.com, "It is our constant endeavour
to provide our members product features which save on time and make Shaadi.com easy
and simple to use. Refined search is one such endeavour which has proved to be a
success as the number of people using this facility has jumped phenomenally\'.

Currently, Shaadi.com offers its users:
Quick Search, which allows you to quickly find partners on the basis of the country
they live in, their religion, and age
The Smart Search option which gives you more detailed search options like
complexion, height, education, occupation, marital status, have children, etc.
City Search which allows you to find members in your own city, or in a city of your
choice anywhere in the world
Keyword Search allows you to:
Find members with specific words in their profile; and
Get matches who share your lifestyle, hobbies and interests e.g. chess, trekking,
movies, etc.

It just gets better because in addition, you can download and install the Shaadi
Toolbar on your computer. It appears on your browser and enables you to search at
your convenience without having to log onto the site. You also have 'The Special
Cases' option which allows you to search for physically / mentally challenged
members. You can further search for your mate based on community, religion, caste,
country and state.

Shaadi.com doesn't stop there. It constantly and continuously updates the
matrimonial partner search results. The most recent matrimonial profiles are listed
at the top so that the user / member can view and learn about the newest members of
Shaadi.com.
