Online photos, without one you’re just a number!
This subject comes up into discussion time and time again. I am always asked to rate the importance of having a photo online. In short, if you don’t you have a visible face to your profile it is unlikely anyone will like to look at your profile… even if you are found through a search.
Guaranteed not to attract any attention, well maybe from the police!
A good photo, present yourself with a natural smile…. irresistible!
With online dating you are a commodity, and there are thousands of others out there just as eager, if not more so to get a date. You have competition, and get this, they may be better looking than you! So what I say, this isn’t an excuse to give up on uploading a photo, in fact this is the worst thing you can do. Most of us have a low opinion of ourselves, its true! And we tend to aim low when it comes to finding a partner. DON’T!!! Aim high and you will surprise yourself.
I have given you some great pointers below for uploading a picture (s) for yourself and advise you give it a go. You are 10 times more likely to be contacted with a photo – fact!
1 - Upload a ‘NATURAL’ picture of yourself in a natural pose. A forced smile is entirely unattractive.
2 – Upload at least 3 pictures of yourself so as a potential partner can really study you and get no surprises when they meet you.
3 – The photo should be no older than 6 months!!! I met a girl online once who was stunning in her photo. Turns out the photo was 15 years old and she was minging!
4 – Make sure there is enough light in your photo and you are clearly visible. Dark pictures tells someone you are hiding something.
5 – Add a couple of photos to a ‘friends only see’ area of a site. This will get potential dates enthused and want to contact you to find out what all the mystery is.
6 – Present your personality by showing a fun side of you. Maybe a picture of you dressed up for a fancy dress party or something. It makes you fun!
It doesn’t matter if you are ugly, your written profile and search criteria will do the selling. Everyone has a beautiful side, just be natural in the shot and you will show it!
