How to make an online dating site profile attractive: best practices
You might have thought that all you have to do to find a perfect match is to register on an online dating site: simple as A, B, C, D. However, that’s where the trap is.
Being eager to start chatting with various beauties online, men hectically skip the registration process procedures, filling in forms or questionnaires in haste, taking a webcam photo anyhow and… then complaining that no woman wants to start interacting with them seriously.
How not to fail? Here are the best practices on how to create the most engaging profile on a dating site and step on a journey of love:
1. Make sure to pick the best photo of yours
You will not apparently be offered to upload the photo of yours straightforward. It’s rather the last stage of the registration process, but not the least.
The first thing that will attract the woman of your dreams to your profile is not your characteristics but a profile picture. So you have to approach this issue seriously.
If you are not an Instagram star and you have nothing to show off with, then take care of a professional or minimum a high-quality photo in advance – a long time before you sign up to the online dating site.
Here, everything depends on your intentions and what you can afford. If you are not restricted by any limits, go for a professional photo-set. Find a photographer whose pieces you like, discuss with him or her your postures, locations, outfit, hairstyle and so on.
In the end, do not forget to order a professional retouch – just to make the reality a little bit more appealing.
Otherwise, you can take a high-quality with your own smartphone. If you need some inspiration, go to YouTube, vloggers will disclose all the secrets of an amateur picture.
Also, keep in mind the perspectives. You are not going to attract anybody if you set your profile photo a topless bathroom selfie or anything creepy like that. Better not use any face changing apps or photoshop. Nobody will take you seriously or will trust you if you do.
2. Fill in the questionnaire attentively
Another thing is that lots of people like to skip when they register on online dating sites, is the form or questionnaire about who they are and what they are like.
Completing it briefly and anyhow, users deprive themselves of chances to encounter their potential partner.
Not all online dating sites offer such forms, but if some do, use it as an opportunity to increase the potential of meeting the right person.
Usually, in such questionnaires, one has to describe his appearance, personal characters, job, hobbies, and interests.
It is always up to you whether to disclose particular information or not, but you should understand that the more peculiarities of yours you tell other users, the faster you will find your perfect match. Often, search tools on such sites find people who suit you the best.
Furthermore, do not lie about yourself: it will be very frustrating for a woman to learn with time that you are not a businessman but a driver. Try to be sincere. Also, do not be shy to describe yourself from the positive side, yet do not be impudent.
3. Describe your ideal partner in detail
This stage is also essential as it will also help search tools on the site to find a compatible person for you.
Note, that some girls enjoy browsing through profiles, and if one of them sees that she fits your expectations ideally, she will make sure to start an interaction with you: she will either wink to you or even begin chatting.
Therefore, you should make your description as precise and detailed as possible. Mention, which kind of a woman you are looking for: a funny girlfriend, a heart and home keeper, a shark of the business and so on.
Describe both your expectations for her appearance, personal traits and views on life, partnership or marriage. Let her know about your taste, and she will find you!
There is nothing complicated in setting up a successful account: all you have to do is to be sincere and ready to invest some time in it.
