Unless they advertise as a marriage broker or specifically limit/give preferential membership to USCs you will not trigger IMBRA.

 

Also USCIS is not googling your dating site.  At the USCIS IMBRA consists of two checks:  Are you a serial I-129 filer, does your background flag any convictions for IMBRA listed offenses.

 

I posted the workflow from a GAO report, so these are not my personal musing, but USCIS's ACTUAL procedures.
