Tips for finding love online

Well hello there ladies and gents, these are just a few useful hints and tips about finding love online, from your profile content, to pictures and much more.....enjoy

The Approach

There's a lot of fear around approaching: there's the fear of rejection, the unwillingness to come across as too keen and the worry it'll look desperate. The truth is making the first move shows great self-assurance and it shows that you have high standards. Of course, it also means that you get to choose who you want to talk to.

Ask revealing questions

Try to avoid boring, mundane questions, that’s not the way you get, keep or get to know who you're talking about. Ask out of the box questions, ask if he/she prefers cats or dogs. Ask if they prefer a holiday walking in the mountains or relaxing on a beach. Ask about their favourite book (and why). People like answering questions about themselves, and the information you get will tell you a lot about the person you're messaging.

Don’t leave anything blank

A big mistake a lot of people make while putting their profile together, is leaving a lot of questions blank that people like to know. If the dating site you’re on let’s you create a username, do it. If you can have up to seven photos, then use all seven. Data has shown time and time again, that the more you put into your profile, the more you’ll see back.

The Photo(s)

The only thing worse than a bad profile picture is no photo at all. Sound strange? It’s true. If you opt to skip the personal photos in your profile, you automatically alienate more than half of your potential audience. Your profile picture should be a head shot, unobscured by hat, sunglasses etc one more thing to keep in mind is you’re more attractive when you’re smiling :). The secondary picture should be a full length body shot, and the third, and onwards highlighting what you might be looking for or adventure shots of you being dynamic.

Profile Description

Be honest, say what you’re really looking for, what kind of man/woman your attracted too. What your interests are, don’t be afraid to be detailed the more information the better.

Time Scale

I know you're excited about going on this dating adventure, it’s going to be fantastic but it’s not something that can be rushed. Take your time getting to know each other, enjoy the process, and then when you mutually agree, meet in a safe and public place, a coffee for example, wink wink.

We wish you all the luck...... happy hunting :)
