13 Tips To Write A Winning Online Profile

Online Dating: 13 Tips To Write A Winning Online Profile
By Alison Edwards

How long do you spend getting ready for a night out? At a guess I would say that if you’re a woman you can probably spend 1 hour upwards preening and titivating and if you’re a man you can be showered, shaved and out of the door within 20 minutes (unless, of course, you’re a metro-sexual in which case you probably take longer than a woman!).

Now let me ask you how long you would spend (or have spent) writing a profile for an online dating site? Less than 5 minutes, possibly 10 minutes maximum?

When you consider that you literally have minutes to impress someone and stand out from the rest in the online dating scene, don’t you agree that more time and effort should be put into writing an online profile?

If you are an online dater, I’m sure you will agree with me that when you are searching for a partner online you will first of all look at the profiles with photos and, secondly, you will look at the profiles where people have taken the time to write something about themselves. So if you have no photo and/or an incomplete and uninformative profile, don’t be surprised if you inbox isn’t full to the brim with messages!

I’m going to share a few tips with you to get you started writing an eye-catching profile. Once you’ve read them take some time to think about what you are going to write and jot down some quick notes before hitting the keyboard.

1. Grab a friend

If you don’t like writing about yourself or think you are going to get writer’s block it’s a good idea to enlist the help of a friend; the kind of friend who is always saying to you “I can’t understand why you’re still single, you’re such a catch”. Ask your friend what your star qualities are and he or she will come up with a million and one positive things about you which you would have never thought of or dared to say about yourself.

2. Strike a pose

The most effective way to get noticed online, is to include a photo. Choose a clear photo that shows in your best light and preferably smiling - it makes much better viewing!

3. Choose a fun username

This is the name which you will be known as by members on the dating site. I would advise you to use a name other than your real name to remain anonymous. Try and choose a name that is fun and reflects your personality, i.e. Sporty Sam or Disco Queen. Do not use a name which is sexually provocative or offensive.

4. Captivate your audience

Make your profile really stand out so that any person reading it will think “Wow, I have to get to know this person!”

Online dating sites have made it easy for you when completing your profile by providing drop down menus for basic questions such as your appearance, lifestyle, hobbies but you will also be given additional space to write something yourself. Use this space wisely to provide a more detailed description about your personality, your interests and what you are looking for. The key is to be confident and talk positively about yourself without coming across bigheaded.

5. Don’t leave an empty space

If you feel you have covered everything by answering the profile questions – please do not leave the additional space blank or write “ask me”, “tell you later” or “I don’t know what to say”. Members will see your profile and think you’re either not serious about dating or that if you can’t be bothered to put some effort into writing a profile you will have the same approach in a relationship – effortless! Instead extend on the information already provided, for example, if you have stated you like travelling talk about some of the places you have visited.

6. Ask questions

If there is a particular place you visited and fell in love with, ask anyone who has been there to get in touch with you so you can reminisce together. Asking a question in your profile makes it easy for other members to respond to.

7. Be Honest

Don’t lie about interests; you will get found out! For example, don’t say you love long walks in the countryside if you really like to dance the night away in nightclubs every weekend. You’ll attract the wrong person and waste both of your time.

As with any other kind of dating, it is always best to be honest from the start so answer all questions honestly and finding your perfect match will be much easier!

8. Show your funny side

I think if you can make someone laugh or someone makes you laugh, you’re on the path to a good relationship. Show people that you have a sense of humour, e.g. talk about a scene from one of your all time favourite comedies and you may strike a chord with someone else who found the same thing just as funny as you.

9. Dream a little

Write about your dreams and ambitions. If your dream is to travel the world but you haven’t quite got round to it there may be someone out there who would like to share this experience with you. If you’ve been lucky enough to fulfil your dreams, share your story with other members.

10. Don’t mention the ex!

Ok, so you may have just come out of a relationship and be feeling sad and lonely but don’t write about it. It will put a lot of people off and you may come across desperate, which is not an attractive trait. Make online dating a new start for you and promise yourself not to dwell on past relationships.

11. Your expectations

What are your expectations from joining an online dating site? Tell people the kind of relationship you are hoping to find but don’t say you are looking for marriage if you are really looking for a casual fling and vice versa. Again, you will waste both of your time.

12. Write a chapter, not a book

By this I mean, don’t tell your whole life story in your profile. I encourage you to provide as much information as possible about yourself but use short bursts of information, sectioned by paragraphs, rather than writing a long essay so whoever is reading it is intrigued to find out more about you.

13. Be safe

Finally, do not include any personal information in your profile, e.g. your e-mail address, home address, work address or telephone number. A reputable dating site will remove any personal information before it appears live on site; this is to ensure that they provide you with a safe online dating environment.

Once you’ve completed your profile, read through it or ask a trusted friend to read through it and ask, would you reply to this person? If yes, it’s all systems go. If no, look at the areas where it can be improved until you’ve created that winning profile. It may take longer than 5 or 10 minutes but the results that will show in your inbox will be worth it!

Online Dating Is New Kind Of Dating

Online Dating Is New Kind Of Dating
By Julia Tanner

A Net dating service, also known as online dating, is an example of a dating system and allows individuals, couples and groups to meet online and possibly develop a social, romantic or sexual relationship. Net dating services provide unmoderated matchmaking through the use of personal computers and the Internet.

Such services generally allow people to provide, then search for other individuals using criteria such as age range, gender and location. Uploading photos of themselves and browse the photos of others is allowed for members. Sites may offer additional services, such as online chat, message boards and web casts. offered services require a monthly fee but sites sometimes allow people to register for free and trial for free.

Mostly there are broad based sites, with members from a variety of backgrounds looking for different types of relationships. Other sites are more specific, based on the type of members, interests, location, or relationship desired.

Problems with Online Dating Services is that there can be a variety of problems with using online dating sites. Some sites expect members to sign up "blind", with no preview of the type of profiles they will get to see. On other sites, some profiles are not actually real people, but a bait put there by the site owners to attract new paying members. Other dating sites have received several complaints of this tactic. Some users spam sites with fake profiles that are in reality advertisements to other services, such as prostitution. A majority of dating sites keep profiles online for months or even years since the last time the person has logged in, thereby making it seem as though they have more available members than they actually do. Many sites offer the option to sort search results based on activity, however. Most sites still have significantly more male members than female.

Most members are enticed to join dating websites with free or low-priced "trial" memberships advertised on many other websites. These trial memberships lack many of the features of the full membership, including the ability to contact other members or reply to e-mail from other members. On sites which require credit card information to join at all, these trial memberships often automatically become full memberships at the end of the trial period and charge the full monthly fee, without any additional action from the member and regardless of whether the member has actually used the services or not. For paying members, it is often unclear whether a potential contact has a full subscription and whether he or she will be able to reply at all.

Even when members' profiles are "real", there is still an inherent lack of trust with other members. Many members misrepresent themselves by telling flattering 'white lies' about their height, weight and age, or using old or misleading photos. Members can, of course, ask for an up-to-date photograph before meeting others. Predators on line find online dating sites especially attractive, because such sites give them an unending supply of new targets of opportunity for fraud in the Internet.

Some sites cater to people with special interests (e.g. sports fans, nerds), professions, political preferences, ethnic groups, conditions (e.g. HIV+, obese), or religions.

Sites for matrimonial are a variant of online dating sites, and these are geared towards meeting people for the purpose of getting married. Gross misrepresentation is less likely on these sites than on 'casual dating' sites. Casual dating sites are often geared more towards short term (and implicitly sexual) relationships.

Correctly Dating By Matchmaking Using Computers

Correctly Dating By Matchmaking Using Computers
By James Brown

Some people feel inferior when they visit nightclubs and try dating men and women that they meet while dancing or other forms of socializing. They have to rely on the information that the person tells them and might not know if it is true for a very long time. Some people do not like this feeling very much and choose to start correctly dating by matchmaking using computers.

Several matchmaking sites ask daters to answer all sorts of questions for a very good reason. These questions are to be answered honestly and some critical thinking might be required to be able to provide an answer with some honesty. To correctly date with the help of a matchmaking computer, a dater must provide answers to all questions and some people do not want to answer some of them.

The questions center around all parts of a persons personality and then delve into their values. Some people tend to get quite paranoid after many of these questions are answered because they can get very personal. These answers are meant to drive people to bear their souls and provide answers that they might not want anyone else to know.

This type of matchmaking will allow computers to pair people up in many areas of life. Since marriage is usually the sought after goal, it helps to know that the person you have been matched with has answered as honestly as the other person has even if it means mentioning things like stealing when they were a child. This starts the ball rolling on couples building trust and accepting the faults that they find in people who they might have met through an internet connection and the matchmaking website.

Some online matchmaking daters are pleasantly surprised when they talk to a person that filled out a profile for the first time. Each of them knows in a instant that they have so many things in common because a computer program told them so before they made the first contact. Using matchmaking computer programs to sort through the quagmire of possible dates alleviates a lot of stress on daters who are tired of the bars and unfulfilled dreamers that they dated.

Many matchmaking pursuits go faster than some people are comfortable with but since they were honest at the start, it is a good bet that the other person will be willing to wait a while before pushing further to meet the person in real life. The matching techniques will be tested repeatedly to see if the person is the right one and most often these matchmaking programs have picked the right person and it only takes time for the other person to know it.

7 Signs He Is Interested

7 Signs He Is Interested
By Marie-Claire Smith
Are you actively flirting with a guy you see frequently but having trouble knowing for sure whether he might want to get together? It can be frustrating not knowing whether he may feel the same way as you do. Wouldn’t it be great to be able to read his mind? While that may not be possible, there are a number of telltale signs that he is probably very interested. Here are 7 of those signs:

Sign #1: He uses your name often when he speaks to you: If he likes you, your name is literally music to his ears and he will want to say it often. It makes him feel good to say your name.

Sign #2: He tends to brush up against or touch you: Those little innocent brushes in the hallway or light touches on the shoulder at your desk are not by accident. They are ways of being closer to you and are a prelude to more intimate physical touching.

Sign #3: He ignores you at odd times: If he is unsure about how you feel about him, he may actually try ignoring you at certain times. He may be nervous about what to say, or he could be afraid that you will catch a glimpse in his eyes of how he really feels about you.

Sign #4: You are good friends but he avoids talking about his love life: If you two are friends but he wants more, he may conspicuously avoid telling you about whom he is dating or he may leave key details out. This is a classic sign that he is trying to protect your feelings and also that he is trying not hamper the possibility of dating you in the future.

Sign #5: He tends to ignore other women when you are around: For example, if there are three attractive women in the room and he is giving you by far the most attention, that is a huge sign that he likes you.

Sign #6: He looks for your reaction first when he tells a joke: If you are in a group situation and he tells what he thinks is a funny joke, he will give his first eye contact after the punch line to the person on whom he has a crush.

Sign #7: His close friends ask you about whom you are dating: Do you find that his friends have asked you about your love life? They may be trying to find out more information and then feeding it back to him so that he can stay informed.

Once you know are fairly sure that he likes you, it is time to take action. Put together a step-by-step plan for getting him to fall for you.

Dating Online: Now An Accepted Part Of American Life

Dating Online: Now An Accepted Part Of American Life
By Julie Peterson
Dating Online Makes Dating Services Acceptable
It used to be that people would hide the fact that they were using a dating service. While dating services have been accepted in Europe for some time, America has lagged in this regard. The internet has changed all that since online dating is a lot better than the voice/newspaper dating of the past. You now get a lot more information about someone before you actually take that scary step of the first date.
Dating online is incredibly convenient for those who wish to gain the benefits of a dating service. Because it’s online, users are able to browse thousands of member profiles without even leaving the comfort of their homes. And the practice is becoming increasingly acceptable; instead of being taboo, dating online is starting to be viewed simply as another way to meet eligible single people. It’s safe and even fun, allowing users to get to know each other slowly and carefully before sticking their feet too far in the water.
What Online Dating Involves
Generally, dating online involves the creation of users’profiles, which include such information as gender, age,l ocation, etc. Biographies, extensive or not, and photos and even videos, if desired, can make up users’ profiles, which are the first contact that users will have with one another. Other users are able to search through this information based on criteria that matter to them, and narrow down their options accordingly. Some online dating sites offer their own systems ofinstant messaging and video calling, although not all do.
The Benefits of Dating Online
The popularity of dating online is growing steadily, showing not only that it’s effective, but that there are benefits to the practice. Compared to the old way of classifieds, for example, dating online allows users to maintain a greater degree of personal space before becoming involved with one another. Users who are interested in each other can find out a lot about each other before they even make contact. Then they can take it slowly if they wish, by using the computer to communicate through emails, instant messages, etc. In this way, users can become more and more comfortable with one another before taking the step of spending time together in person.
Such getting to know each other makes online dating not only convenient, but also for the most part safe and hassle-free. Allowing users to get into contact with people they wouldn’t otherwise meet in daily life, the safe distance that the internet provides helps to weed out unconscionable users. In this way, there isn’t the risk of a compromised identity or unnecessary embarrassment if the relationship is not worth going forward with. And for the most part, the chances of success indating online are high because a majority of the others using the services are people just like you, hoping to meet someonewho could turn out to be their ideal match. More and more, itseems, people are actually finding true love through dating online.
Dating Online Doesn’t Only Have to be for Romance
Dating online is a significant component of the internet world, and connects people based on all sorts of similarities or shared interests, even beyond romantic ones. For instance, many people enjoy using the internet to connect with new friends and activity partners.

Christians & Online Dating

Christians & Online Dating
By Richard Lloyd

Online dating sites have been around for more than a decade now and their success shows no sign of slowing down. As technology advances there are more and more ways in which we can interact with each other. Soon phone technology will allow us to communicate by video with one another while on the move and GPS will allow us to meet with each other in a crowded shopping mall. These technologies are soon to be combined to help us all in our search for suitable partners. This is the cutting edge of the interconnected world we live in. Yet, with technology allowing these meetings to take place in the world, why are committed Christians still reluctant to use it to help them find partners?

Single Christians are in the un-enviable position of being highly restricted in a number of areas in regards to how they can meet new people. Firstly, if a Christian is single and is committed to their faith, they will be restricted to only wanting to date other committed Christians. This rules out a huge percentage of the population at a stroke. A non-Christian can walk down the street and see potential matches all the time. A committed Christian knows that the only (more or less) guaranteed place to meet suitable people is in their local Church. Secondly, not only can single Christians only really date other single Christians but the fact that these are only to be found in all kinds of Churches spread out all over the area they live in makes meeting them quite difficult. No one likes to be too obvious that they are looking for a partner and Christians are no different. In the goldfish bowl environment of the local Church the single Christian can feel particularly on show and this makes any approach to the opposite sex a scary experience. A rejection by someone in their own church can put them off dating for good.

So what can single Christians do to help themselves? This is where dedicated online Christian dating websites give a distinct advantage. There are several advantages which should be considered by committed single Christians.

Firstly, a Christian run online dating service will know and understand the particular needs of committed single Christians. Non-Christian sites cater for all kinds of people and can’t target their profiles to committed Christians and their searches allow all kinds of people to contact each other. This leads to approaches by unsuitable people that may lead the Christian away from their lifestyle. A Christian run site will screen people through specially designed profile questions and the essays will usually reveal if a person is really a committed Christian.

Secondly, a Christian run online dating site allows committed Christians to cross the Church and area boundaries. This allows them to approach people they may never meet in their ordinary day-to-day church activities.

Thirdly, by using an online Christian dating service committed Christians can pursue their relationships with anonymity and without interference and potential judgement by others in the church.

So now really is the time to get online and join one or more of the excellent online Christian dating sites.

More oftenthan not, you will be required to pay for these or to upgradeyour free membership to maybe a “gold membership” status bypaying some money. Any good relationship should be based on aperson with particular peculiarities, rather than the person’sstatus.

To Drink or Not on a Date - a humorous approach.

To Drink or Not on a Date - a humorous approach.

As Ben Franklin said: In wine there is wisdom, in beer there is freedom, in water there is bacteria.

In a number of carefully controlled trials, scientists have demonstrated that if we drink 1 liter of water each day, at the end of the year we would have absorbed more than 1 kilo of Escherichia coli, (E. Coli) - bacteria found In feces. In other words, we are consuming 1 kilo of poop.

However, we do NOT run that risk when drinking wine and beer (or vodka, tequila, rum, whiskey or other liquor) because alcohol has to go through a purification process of boiling, filtering and/or fermenting.

Therefore, from this I conclude that it's better to drink booze and talk stupid, than to drink water and be full of shit.

There is no need to thank me for this valuable information: I'm doing it as a public service.... lol

Dating Success Strategies: 10 Dating Lessons To Spice Up Your Social Life

Dating Success Strategies: 10 Dating Lessons To Spice Up Your Social Life
By April Masini

If you are ready to start winning in the dating world, follow this simple strategy for success:

Lesson 1: First Impressions
They are immediate, long lasting, and usually permanent. Regardless of how great you are, and no matter how sweet you can be once someone gets to know you, the reality is, your dating success will be based almost entirely upon the other person's initial sense of who and what you are.

Lesson 2: If you want the part, look the part
Statistics show that how we appear speaks more about us, and is more important, than what we say verbally.

Lesson 3: Act the part
It is a fact that in our personal affairs, as in all our business dealings, we sell ourselves first. Poor attitude, image, and behavior will adversely affect your dating success, just as it will negatively affect your success in business.

Lesson 4: Be the part.
The initial impression you make on a prospective date predicts whether she (or he) will take the time to get to know you. Dating, as well as business, is all about sales. You must think of yourself as a product and the person you want to date as the buyer.

Lesson 5: Dating is about sales and sales is a numbers game
If you want to multiply your success immediately in dating (or just about anything else), learn, understand, and embrace the concept behind "the numbers game." Accept and follow these tenets:

1. You are a product

2. You are the product's salesperson, its packager, and its advertiser.

3. The person you're trying to attract is your customer. They make their buying decisions based upon presentation, packaging, and advertising.

4. The world's best salespeople don't have a 100 percent sales rate, a 75 percent rate, a 50 percent or even a 25 percent rate. The world's best salespeople are lucky to maintain a 10 percent sales rate and count themselves lucky if one out of every ten "pitches" results in a sale.

Lesson 6: Confidence = success
The number one quality both men and women seek in a date or a mate is confidence. Confidence is also the key attribute that all professional salesmen must possess in order to be successful. People do not buy products or services from someone who has no confidence in themselves or the products they represent.

Lesson 7: Establish a goal
A confident person is one with a plan and a goal. What's yours?

Lesson 8: Know your target market and give them what they want
Understand to whom you are trying to sell yourself and what they are interested in buying.

Lesson 9: Analyze the competition and do things better than they do

Just as you would study a competitor in business or a rival sports team, study your dating competition if you want to win!

Lesson 10: Take action and follow through
Deal with your fear of rejection. Stop investing your energy and self-worth in outcomes. Instead of thinking of 'misses' as 'failures,' think of them as 'practice shots'. Dating is a process. Stop placing so much importance on what the person you are interested in thinks of you. After all, you don't know if you would even like them once you get to know them, do you?

Set small goals and accomplish them, one by one. Get passionate about your goals and your life. Enthusiasm is contagious, if you are excited about your life, people will be excited about being with you.

Dress for success. Always put your best foot forward And don't forget to perfect your sales pitch. If you keep doing the same thing, you will keep getting the same result.

Lesson 10: Live as if there may be no tomorrow
Realize there are no guarantees, no dress rehearsals, and (usually) no second chances. Make each day "your day," one in which you did all that you could do.

The Online Dating Advantage

The Online Dating Advantage
By Matt Matcherson

The Online Dating Advantage

Though mass media has had something to do with the rise in popularity and gradual acceptance of online dating, the advantages to online dating have actually propelled it to the mainstream of the singles dating scene.

The More the Merrier

Online dating gives you a lot of potential dates and prospects.

Dating sites have thousands of members (some even claim hundreds of millions of members) so you have got a lot of options. You can spend weeks browsing through member profiles looking for friend, chat mate, casual date, or long-time life partner. Now, give me one singles bar, event or grocery store that can give you this many choices?

Numbers help

Though online dating gives you a lot of choices, you don’t have to pay an arm and a leg for the opportunity. Most sites have free profile options and you can wait for other members to contact you. If you want to be able to initiate contact, most dating sites will require you to pay a monthly membership fee.

This membership fee is nothing compared to the cost of going to various singles bars and singles events. You don’t have to pay for tickets, for entrance fees, for drinks, for a new dress or hairdo, for a new pair of shoes, for a new tie, etc. You get thousands of opportunities and you only pay a fixed monthly fee.

What more could you ask for?

A casual affair

In a singles bar, you’d have to be dressed to kill and be groomed at your best so that you will have at least a chance of catching another single’s interest. In online dating, you can wear your pajamas and go on a date and nobody will care. All you need to do is browse over people’s profile and find people you’d like to date over cyberspace. You can talk, you can flirt and you can have a wonderful time getting to know a lot of people.

If another person gives you the brush off, it’s not the end of the world for you. Just shrug that off and find another date. You don’t have to take online rejection as personally because the other person cannot see you and cannot gauge your reactions.

You save face and you can move on, clear and simple. Online dating makes introductions truly easy and rejections relatively painless. For those with a fear of dating, the process is much easier and can end up connecting you with people you would have otherwise not met.

Please be Yourself

People complain about posers and players online. But guess what? There is also a positive flipside to the blank slate you have as you begin a new profile. You don’t have to pretend to be someone you’re not! In online dating, you can make your profile as truthful as it can be and then find people who’ll like you just the way you are. You don’t have to pretend that you’re looking for meaningful relationships when you only want physical encounters. Just put what you’d like and who you want to meet in your profile and be with people who’d like the same things you do. It’s that straightforward and simple.

There are a lot more advantages to online dating as somebody who’s been at it for a while can attest. If you’re a doubting Thomas, try it and find yourself a doubting Teresa!

If you are seriously considering getting involved in the online dating scene, visit some of the dating sites on the internet just to look around and become acquainted.

After you've joined an online dating site, you will need to create a profile, which will usually include an opening sentence or title that is supposed to grab the attention of othermembers. In an LDS online dating site, the center is spirituality. The best tip I can give you for online dating is to use only one dating site.

What is this online dating profile tip? If you keep your online dating profile positive, up to date and make the photo and username stand out you should have no trouble in getting contacted. Just like in the real world, a well-rounded person has a life outside of dating, so once you've written and received a response, resist the urge to send a dozen e-mails to your new online love interest.

These are simple and practical online dating tips that most people have, more often than not, forgotten about. We should try to communicate our positive selves in online dating, who we want to be and when we communicate that people start responding to that person.

David Keeling is the webmaster of a free online dating service where singles can meet in a fun, safe and anonymous enviroment. Be reasonable, be patient and you'll never have to be dissatisfied in the performance of a free online dating website.

Regardless of the type of match or relationship that you’re searching for, you are far more apt to find it via an online dating website than during a random trip to the bar.

When it comes to online dating you have to take the whole industry with a grain of salt and realize that it isn't some magic formula. Needless to say, the odds are slightly better when it comes to online dating.

So you’ve just signed up and are ready to take the online dating world by storm.

While online dating may have been viewed as a “last resort” several years ago, it has recently become an increasingly viable option for many people. You should not just confine yourself to online dating, instead use it as another avenue for meeting women. These are just a few tips on dating to consider if you find yourself a little ill at ease with online dating.

If you are considering dating online, you must also consider the risk that is involved. Now in the online dating world you will not get that face to face contact. With online dating profiles, the window of opportunity to convey your personality is markedly wider, and thus your chances of successfully doing so are higher.
