The Shidduch Site is designed to be the ultimate resource for Orthodox observant singles in the Mid-Atlantic area. Although its focus is on the Maryland, D.C., Virginia, Delaware and Pennsylvania regions, much of the content on the site is applicable to shidduch dating singles everywhere.

This site is greared towards Orthodox observant singles of all flavors, from modern to yeshivish. As a result, while most links and content are chosen specifically for the observant Jewish audience, some links and content representing the larger audience of regional Jewish singles is included. It is hoped that this content will also prove useful to observant Jewish singles, as well.
