5 Ways To Achieve An Irresistible Dating Profile,double click and read more..
Along with the new year come new beginnings, and singles all over the
world are hoping for one of those beginnings to be new love. Online
dating sites are now one of the most popular ways to meet singles. And
with thousands of dating sites out there, the outlets to find love
online are certainly there, and booming at that. Finding love online
should be a cinch, yet some people still struggle with it. What these
people don’t realize is that their problem is right in front of their
eyes, and very easy to solve…their problem is their dating profile. A
recent study of over 4,000 dating profiles done by Zoosk has discovered
how to fix these problems, how to improve odds of receiving messages,
and how to get more replies to messages sent. Here are
1. Describe your hobbies
Describing your hobbies and personal interests can lead to more
messages, and more activity on your dating profile. Online dating users
who mention exercise in their dating profiles receive 21% more messages,
and users who mention an interest in music and musical skills get 15%
more messages. All of the artists out there get 6% more messages, and
bookworms get a whopping 21% more messages!
2. Show it all off
People often mistakenly choose a head shot for their main photo.
However, while there’s nothing wrong with a close up of your pearly
whites, online dating users who show their entire body in their profile
photo receive more than three times the messages of the average user.
They also see a 33% improvement in receiving responses to their
messages. Save the head shots for other parts of your profile, and put
it all on display for your main pic.
3. Check your spelling
Bring out all of your writing and grammar skills when you’re
constructing your online profile, because apparently people like proper
English. And no short cuts either! Use a “teh” “cuz” or “b4″ in a
message, and you will instantly turn the receiver off, making it 13%
less likely that you will get a reply. Women are sticklers when it comes
to this, because for men the response rates drop by a drastic 27%.
Don’t forget about punctuation…
4. Make sure you’re alone…
DO NOT include anyone in your photo, including your beloved pet
chihuahua or fluffy kitten. People who include friends or pets in their
photos see a huge drop in responses to their messages. Those who bring
their dear pets into their profile photo get 53% fewer messages, and 12%
fewer responses to the messages they send. Having a human in the photo
is nearly as bad. Profiles with main photos with more than one person,
lower their chance of receiving an incoming message by 42%. People
aren’t interested in dating your pet…they’re interested in dating you.
5. Keep your cool
The prospect of finding love is very exciting, but make sure you keep
your cool. Users who come on too strongly experience a significant
decline in replies received. Use the word “sexy”, “hot” or “cute”, and
you’re 44% less likely to receive a reply
The Power of Words:
While there are some words that turn prospective matches off, there
are also words that do the opposite. According to a study conducted with
okCupid and Match.com, there are actually certain words that are proven
to make you seem more attractive to other users.
