What are the best international dating sites for long-distance love?

Long-time lurker here, finally posting, because what I want to understand is best international dating sites for long-distance love.

There's a real gap between how international dating sites is marketed and how it behaves once you're actually using it.

If it helps, here is how I'm scoring international dating sites:

• How visible international dating sites keeps you when you are not paying for a boost
• Whether international dating sites has real users outside the big metros
• What happens to your data if you delete a international dating sites account
• How the long-distance experience on international dating sites compares month to month
• Whether the free tier on international dating sites is genuinely usable or just a demo
