When writing your personal ad,
remember that you are selling yourself. Emphasize on the positive, but a
negative well blended into the ad might work as well, even make your ad
stand out ("I might not have the body of a supermodel but..").
But first your photo: hugely important . Why? Because it is the
first thing other folks will see at before deciding to read
farther. Also, the number responses increase dramatically when you
post a photo.
The photo should be fairly recent and of yourself (not your cute cousin's). It ought to be cast you in positive light, but not overdone. And please don't post a suggestive photo on a serious dating or matchmaking location (it won't be published anyway). Also of importance is your screen title . Prospects will look at this before deciding to whether to peruse any farther. Make this brief , catchy and descriptive. Avoid over-used terms such as "lovelyandsensual42".
While creating a screen name , it might help to zero-in on who you are and what you like to do (For example , "younggreeneyez31" tells something about looks and age). Next you will begin to write your personal ad. Start with a good headline: yet another hurdle to get over. Your headline should be short , descriptive, and easy to recollect . Study other peoples' headlines and see which ones attract you. Writing: A conversation-style writing works best for a dating profile.
Use imagination. See your ideal woman/man as though seating right there in front of you. Tell her/him why she/he would need to be with you. Say what you like to do and what makes you exciting. Get excited. Write lacking worrying about spelling, grammar or length. At this point you're trying to get your emotions on paper (or typing document), and stopping to make corrections only interrupts the flow. Describe yourself. Say what makes you special.
What you bring into a relationship. Your interests, hobbies, what makes you good company, what you bring into the relationship. Pour your heart out. And use action words. Give them something to make them recollect your ad. There are things you should avoid. Among them trite , canned expressions and overused click's. I can't bear to read another "looking for my own knight in shinning armor" type of personal ad. Neither can you, I presume. Study other peoples' personal profiles.
If an ad catches your eye attempt to find out what makes it interesting . Model yours on these, but please don't imitate directly. Take your time and do it right. Be honest. Be sincere. Don't exaggerate and don't fake. Above all, don't lie. When you are done writing, take a break. Let your draft personal profile seat for a while (even a day or two). Then come back with a fresh mind and begin editing.
Make corrections on spelling and grammar. Cut clutter. All you'll have to do now is transfer your magnetic personal profile on to your dating site of choice.
