Online and mobile dating has become a huge success over the past few years. If you’re using it as a serious method of dating, or just for a bit of fun, it’s important to make your profile appealing.
Mobile dating provider, FlirtFinder, have found that there are certain areas of dating profiles that daters constantly get wrong.
To maximise your chances of bagging a date, they’ve helped us put together some top tips to keep your profile on top form.
Get The Numbers Right
Don’t lie about your age. As the old saying goes, age is just a number and if you really like someone, then you’ll find that age won’t matter when it comes to your relationship.
Honesty really is the best policy, and it’ll be much more appreciated if you tell the truth from the get go.
FlirtFinder say, “Age has nothing whatsoever to do with whether a person finds you attractive or not. If you do end up meeting the person, you will have to tell the truth sooner or later, so don’t start out on a dishonest foot.”
Stay Positive
Don’t come across as negative or miserable on your profile. Think about if the roles were reversed, would you date someone who came across as miserable and self-loathing?
Confidence is the key, stay positive and keep your profile fresh, simple and inviting.
FlirtFinder say, “Your future partner won’t want to hear about your ex-partners on your first date, so chances are they won’t want to read about on your profile either. Keep your bio fresh and simple – you should always leave a little intrigue!”
Less Is More
One of the most unattractive traits is bragging. Don’t plaster how much you earn, how big your house is, how many cars you own all over your profile.
A little mystery is always nice, and even if you do have money, a nice house and plenty of fast cars, being humble about it is much more attractive.
FlirtFinder say, “People won’t be attracted to you if your profile just mentions how attractive, rich, successful or talented you are. You should leave a few things about yourself vague, so they can be learnt over time – just like in real life.”
Keep It Clean
Nobody wants to open a profile to see a picture of you half naked with a provocative look on your face, and if they do, then they’re probably not the type of person you’d want to date.
Keep your profile picture simple, showing you being your natural self. Natural photos always work better than posed, as your personality will shine through.
FlirtFinder say, “You need to find the middle ground here. Posting a pouting, evocative photo is going to attract a lot of attention, not all of it good.
“Similarly, a photo of you sitting in front of a pile of laundry or using the mirror of a public toilet probably won’t attract a desirable clientele. Be true to yourself and natural – that’s what steals hearts.”
