Six essential rules for successful online profiles
Pretty much every dating site gives you advice as to how to write a profile, and generally they say the same thing which is encouraging. I have reviewed loads of dating sites and condensed the following 6 ‘essential tips’ for uploading your profile:...
Research
Look at the quality other people on the site you have chosen are writing about themselves so as it gives you a gauge of quality you are up against. Remember that you are up against others here and to a degree it’s a competition, therefore the strongest tend to win!
Differentiate
Most online daters copy text from other profiles as they get stuck. You are making an investment so be shrewd with your investment and write something that will differentiate you from the rest of the crowd.
Be Concise
People will only spend a few seconds reading your profile; therefore don’t waffle as people will get bored and move to someone they can connect with. Your opening sentence is key so make it eye catching – an idea is to shock! FACT - The shorter and more precise the profile the more joy you will have in being contacted, time is of the essence when looking for a date online.
Say who you are looking for rather than what you are like
So many online daters write reams of text about what they are like which is really quite boring to read. In order to get that immediate connection be specific about who you are looking for – the more precise you are about who you are looking for, the more chance you will connect with the right person. It doesn’t seem natural, but trust me… it will help ten fold with your chance of finding someone!
Update
The more you update your profile the more attention and character you will present. Treat it as a blog almost and make a monthly update to it telling all what you have been up to – it helps get the emotive connection with potential partners.
Photographs
Without a logo a brand has no face, in the same way without a photo your profile has no life. A picture is vital. Click here to read my specific tips on uploading a photo.
