Tampa Dating Service-Profile Writing Tips

Men’s Killer Online Dating Profile Tip! Are you dating online and not meeting the women you crave and would like to meet? I know what you are going through and it can be a lonely place when you aren't getting the results you desire. In this situation you have to hang in there and never give up! Tip #1 Test your replies from what you write in your first and second emails. Save your emails in a file and use the ones that get the most replies as templates...everyone is unique though. Tip#2 You must comment on personal things she has written in her profile. To show you have made the effort to find out something about her. And remember, nothing works 100% of the time. I still scratch my head when a profile ignores my interest...and I match her criteria well...go figure. I've just finished dating a lady and am back in the internet dating game... And loving it...one thing about using online dating sites is that whenever you find yourself single, you can be comfortable in the knowledge that it is only a matter of time before you meet someone else. Or just enjoy dating a few different ladies until you do... It's the most efficient / effective way to date that I'm aware of... There is a LOT of women using online dating sites. This is good news for us healthy single men who don’t like hanging out in smoky bars and clubs. Attention! I'm about to reveal a killer profile tip which I'm certain I've never revealed before. I was aware of it but never really made the effort to use it. As I was preparing a new profile name, photo and text to go back online, I decided to make the effort. The results have been pretty darn good, and I've only been back online for four weeks or so! It’s got the type of women I'm interested in meeting, to contact me straight away. No messing about with virtual kisses and then me having to pay for the contact. They contacted me and sent their mobile number with the email! Yehaa! I like that… :-] Are you ready, let’s look at it, Here it is; Men’s Killer Profile Tip! When editing or making up your profile, pretend you are a copywriter. By this I mean imagine you have been paid by a company to write a profile convincing a client to be interested in that company’s goods. So to do that you need to tell the reader this; 'WHATS IN IT FOR THEM!' Read profiles of men in your area and age group to scope out the competition. Notice how often they use the word ' I.' So you’ll see they are focusing on themselves, instead of the reader. This is good for you, so that your profile will stand out from the crowd. For example; Instead of writing, 'I love going to the beach for a swim.' Write it this way, 'Do you enjoy going to the beach for a walk and a swim?' Subtle difference, but it works! Instead of this, 'I like to cook.' Write it, 'Do you like your man to cook for you while having a glass of wine together.’ Get the idea? So why not edit your profile and delete as many ' I's ' as you can. Or set up a new one on a different site and see the results... You will notice the difference quickly. Focus on what you think the type of women that interests YOU, would like to read and do. I think you get the picture with this and I won't bother with endless examples. This truly is a KILLER tip! Try it out and good luck to you! So instead of writing the word ‘I,’ rephrase it and use the word ‘you.’ Simple but effective and gets good results… Until next time and more dating tips, keep smiling... This articles quote; ‘There is always a way to succeed, if you are committed.' All the best… Regards Mick Jones Author

Tampa Dating-Writing a profile



A profile is an online representation of yourself so why not represent the best parts of you? There are four areas of a profile that you should keep in mind: honesty, creativity, research, writing. By mastering these areas, you will be able to write an excellent and self-elevating profile that can capture anyone's attention.

Part One: Honesty

Always be honest with the readers of your profile; remember that you and the others on the site are searching for that special someone--how can a relationship grow when there is deceit from the beginning?
Speak candidly about who you are and what you are looking for. Then, at least you will know that, when someone messages you, they are genuinely interested. Putting up a pretense will only summon people who are interested in your lies; this will not build a solid relationship.
Being honest doesn't mean to be sell yourself short; you don't have to dwell on your faults and misgivings. Showcase your good qualities (just don't exaggerate).


Part Two: Creativity

Nothing can turn a potential relationship sour more than a dull profile. There are thousands upon thousands of people looking for the exact same thing you are: a genuine connection. You must be able to catch their attention.
Try to avoid using phrases like Looking for Mr. Perfect? or In Search Of That Special Lady? or descriptions like hard-working?, romantic? and attractive?. These are all cliche and overdone. Spice your profile up with original ideas!
Show off your strengths. Give your readers anecdotes or narratives that display you in a good light.
Get yourself a thesaurus. As silly as this may sound, a thesaurus can help you avoid using words that have been used too many times before.
Do not use letters to describe yourself; for example, SWF (single white female) can mean a variety of things to a variety of people. Don't limit yourself to this.

Part Three: Research

You know what kind of relationship you want; whether it be a friend, a casual date, or something as deep as a marital partner, you have a clear picture in your mind of how far you are willing to go. Seek out people with that same goal.

Write a profile that will appeal to the kind of person you're after; the only way they can find you is if you help them. Check out other profiles for ideas.

If you receive interest with your profile but still can't seem to find that right person, then go do some online window-shopping. Scan through profiles, find some that catch your attention, and start messaging. They don't all have to come to you.

Part Four: Writing

So, you've gathered your information and you have a clear idea of what you want out of this site; however, your writing seems a little...lifeless. Be careful of this! By paying attention to the three steps before you, you should be able to write a profile that is distinctly you.

This is an example of what not to do: I'm a SBM looking for a SF. Good looking, funny. Message me. Eyes are going to glaze over; you cannot limit yourself like this. It will only hurt you.

Spice it up: I am a 22-year-old female, blessed with long, blonde hair and big, brown eyes. I'm short, only 5'4, but what I lack in size, I make up for in spirit. I am looking for someone that can keep up with me; come and get me, boys. She gives a description and a challenge, all within a few sentences ”you don't have to be long-winded to get the point across.

A good profile can bring you all of the attention you want and lead you to a successful relationship; follow these steps to what you want.
