How can I get a better response from my profile?
The Write Stuff
Having a profile that hits the spot is really important when
you want yours to stand out amongst all the others. That
means what you write about yourself is actually more
important than you may think. If it's not done well, chances
are you won't find what you are looking for and your mailbox
will be sadly empty.
DOs:
-
Write your profile when you are in a good mood, and feeling
positive about yourself.
-
Be honest, genuine and natural
-
Use a lighthearted approach, don't take yourself too
seriously.
-
Be positive about yourself and what you want.
-
Check and double check your spelling, punctuation and
grammar! Show that you put in the effort to do things
properly. Don't abbreviate your profile into what looks
like a 'txt msg on yr mob fone'
-
Put in the effort to reveal your personality, complete
everything in your profile in detail. Details on how you
look, your hobbies and interests, and what you do are well
worth providing and give you opportunity to show your
intelligence and sense of humour. If your answers are too
short you will come across as just looking for sex.
-
Think about exactly what you are looking for. Let people
know what you want in detail rather than sounding like
everyone else. How many times have you seen "I'm looking
for someone special to have a friendship with and see where
it goes"
-
Keep your sentences short and concise. Lengthy,
incomprehensible, self-indulgent monologues rarely go down
well.
-
Let people know what sort of free time you have, and how
far you are willing to travel.
-
Be polite. This isn't a website for just casual sex.
DON'Ts:
-
Don't try to be too clever, overconfident and cocky.
-
Don't talk about sex, webcams, fantasies and sensual
massages! Leave sex out of your profile and your user name.
Save it for when you are on a more personal level with
someone.
-
No one wants to hear a life story about your family and
kids or your complaints about your spouse.
-
Don't sound desperate! Having no criteria for what you are
looking for will make you sound like you would be happy to
meet anyone, or that you just can't be bothered to think
about it.
-
Don't be negative, depressed or miserable. Profiles that
paint a sorrowful picture aren't enticing.
Your photo...
We realise that on our site discretion is of utmost
importance. If you want to include your photo, having
password protected photos, hidden behind a picture of
something you are interested in is the way to go.
Obviously, if you're strong on personality but you're not
confident in your looks, leaving your photo off your profile
may be the best idea.
You should try and upload some sort of picture to attract
attention to your profile and show what you are interested
in. People are more likely to respond to a profile that has a
picture. Changing your picture often also gets people looking
again and again…
If you do decide to put up a photo of yourself, be honest!
There is not much point putting up a picture of someone else.
You may feel personality is more important than looks but Mr
or Mrs Right will still run for the hills if they find you
have misled them. Honesty really is the best policy. Putting
up a photo of you ten years ago may also end in tears if
people think they are dating someone a decade younger.
You'll get a better response if you choose a natural shot
rather than a cheesy, posed one. Natural light is often more
flattering than one taken with a flash, so a photo taken
outside may be better.
Don't take a photo holding out your camera at arm's length,
use a timer or get a friend to do it - arm's length photos
are rarely flattering!
