Creating the perfect online profile
Photo etiquette
A picture tells a thousand words… So does your online picture you’re are using in your profile. Here are some the must do’s of online photo’s
Make sure you are fully dressed
Girls, you might think the bikini shots make you look super hot, but for the guys looking online, the ones that are seriously looking for a potential partner will be turned of, the ones that are looking for the next notch on a bed post will be turned on.
Tip: Cover up, post tasteful photos.
Post recent photos
If the last photo you have of yourself is ten years ago, get something a little more modern, make sure that some of your photos are taken in the last 3 months, make sure you have at least one head shot and one full body shot.
Tip: Recent modern photos are the only photos to use
Take of the sunglasses and hats
Unless you need to hide some hideous deformity take your glasses and hat of. They cover too much up, you need to be able show your full face in a nice head shot.
Tip: Don;t cover up your face in the photo
Stay away from glamour photos
You might have the urge to put up that glamour models photo that you had done. PLEASE DON’T whilst it would show you in the best light, it doesn’t show you in the true light.
Write the truth, but not war in peace
When you start writing your profile, be truthful and honest, but stay away from writing to much, no one wants to read a novel, at the same time don’t be to brief either. Write about yourself, what interest you, as well as what your looking for in a potential partner.
Tip: get a friend to write your profile for you, they will be brutally honest
Try to fill in as much as you can

Going online has become a really easy and popular way to meet new people. So by creating a dating profile that people will respond to, drastically improves your chances of finding the potential one.
