Writing An Online Dating Service Profile? 3
Mistakes You Must Avoid...
Michael Erder

Well, after 4 years of reading far in excess of 10,000 profiles
of men and women searching for a partner through online dating
services, I’ve laughed at my fair share of poorly written
introductions...

Of those 10,000 online dating service profiles, no more than a
dozen captured our attention enough to make the first move. I’m
sure that you wish to get lots of reactions to your online
dating service advertisement, otherwise why would you bother
joining a site, and paying a fee to meet new people?

If that is the case, then make sure you avoid the following 3
mistakes at all costs:

1. "I May Be the one you’re Seeking For"
This may be the case. However, by employing this combination of
words anywhere for your online dating service profile, you
aren’t telling me, or your potential suitor, anything new...

What this line does say to someone checking you out is that the
online dating service profiler didn’t do a lot of thinking about
how they wanted to present themselves. Tell people what gets
your eyes twinkling or even what REALLY gets you up in the
morning - and don’t say it’s your alarm clock, either. Now is
the time to let your passions really shine through...

2. "I’m the one Your Mother Warned You About"
This is, from my research in any case, virtually the most
overused phrase in an opening line for online dating service
profiles. True, it’s the generic option of some of the larger
sites (such as Lavalife or even True) – if your profile is
awaiting approval, this tag line will show up while waiting for
the a-okay...

To avoid this, come up with something a bit more unique and
original. But what if you aren’t sure how to do this? Well,
it’s not hard to take a look at your competition in the online
dating service field, so why not do a quick search and see what
everyone else is doing?

Reading other people’s description of themselves could just get
your creative juices flowing. At the very least, it’ll explain
what everyone else is saying about themselves – and what key
phrases and words you should avoid in turn...

3. Glaring Spelling or even Grammatical Mistakes
This tip might seem childish, or even trite – but its
critically important. While chatting with someone online, you
may make a few spelling mistakes that a potential suitor will
find annoying. However until you get to that stage with
someone, no one should know that you’ve got dyslexia, or just
can’t spell worth beans...

It shows a lot to a potential suitor while they peruse the
online dating services that someone has taken the time to spell
check their document. Hell, get a friend to proof read it for
you if want just in case you’ve missed something important...

However if you can't take the time to write something legible,
virtually all people perusing the online dating service
websites will assume you won’t have time to bother doing other,
even more important tasks. And when you only have two or three
of seconds to make that first impression before someone clicks
on another person – each and every detail counts...
