5 Tips to Dating Success

 

Needing help with getting interaction and interest from other members? Here's our 5 point guide for making the most of the site and finding more response and fun!

 

 

Photographs

They say a person’s eyes are the window to their soul and, in the business of selling yourself (not literally...) through the appeal and allure of one’s online dating profile, there’s no better way to ensnare a potential suitor than with a cute selfie.

 

In fact, according to our Profile Insight survey, a whopping 46% of members stated that they don’t even consider profiles without a photo and your profile actually becomes 6 times more likely to be seen!

 

We’ve got all sorts of options for uploading media to the site so you can choose to be as spirited or reserved as you like - why not try using a scintillating selfie as an icebreaker to really catch someone’s attention and get the conversation flowing!

 

Take a look at the graphic below for some tips & tricks on how to upload and change your snaps and just watch as the messages flood in.

   

Honesty & Authenticity

Honesty, in its sincerest form, has always been a fundamental part of what constitutes our core values as human beings and we are raised from a young age to know the true importance of being honest with one another if we ever hope to form true, authentic connections.

 

In the modern age of the internet, it is all too easy to pretend to be someone that you’re not and, despite our deepest insecurities, hiding behind the guise of fake profiles or accounts, whether the intent is sinister or otherwise, is a shameful and deceitful act. Opening up to someone new is vulnerable and can be a big step in someone’s life, so being a catfish can have truly damaging consequences. So much so, that 25% of our members even claim that any form of lying would be an instant dealbreaker.

 

In the wicked world of dating, sharing is key and honesty is the currency in which we invest ourselves in one another. Putting yourself out there is a brave and vulnerable act, one which is only further compounded by reciprocated honesty and authenticity, paving a solid foundation upon which to build genuine and authentic relationships and romance.

   

Detail

When you create your profile, you’re creating a semblance of yourself and you should always strive to be as accurate and detailed as possible. After all, your profile is your advertisement in the window shopping of online dating; you want to stand out from the crowd, don’t you?

 

Let’s put it this way, from all of the members who answered our survey, a staggering 39% stated that a ‘full and informative description’ was what attracted them most to a profile!

 

There’s no shame in being confident in yourself and, in fact, studies have shown that confidence is a key component in core human attraction, so own those attributes that make you tick and don’t be afraid to include every one of those wacky and wonderful characteristics that makes you, you.

   

What Are You Looking For?

The world is your oyster when it comes to online dating, and there’s something for everyone. From your deepest desires to your most sincere and meaningful tropes, to fully understand the content of our heart’s true desire, we must first understand ourselves.

 

In principle; by identifying the characteristics that you’re looking for, you are refining your hunt for romance and relationships and improving the quality of your results. Your Profile Description is the perfect place to make your own menu, to clearly outline what you want for refined Matches. Then you can be as choosy and specific or open-minded as you like with our Advanced Search function, this gives you the ability to really narrow down your match criteria to hone in on your deepest desires.

 

Be direct and diligent in your approach for a happy life, move with clear intentions, know your worth and don’t settle for anything less.

   

Be Proactive

Procrastination and hesitation are the death of spontaneity and, in an ever-changing and unpredictable world, there’s no time to play it safe. We all owe it to ourselves to pursue the things that make us happy because, after all, isn’t that the whole point?

 

Take the plunge and send that selfie to get yourself out there or explore member media galleries and status updates to get to know your cohorts and potential partners that little bit better!

 

Or stay old school and keep it simple; according to our survey almost 40% of members are most impressed with a simple message containing a couple of sentences, so… what are you waiting for?

 

There’s no better time than the present.

Being proactive and upfront in what you are looking for on your profile weeds out the trouble candidates for you. I think it is a great idea. I am going to add a bit more to my profile to find an outgoing, romantic man!!
