#1: MAKE A KILLER FIRST IMPRESSION. Create a profile with a unique bio and picture of yourself. With the millions of singles signed up to online dating sites, it is crucial to make a dating profile that will stand out above the rest. Be sure to completely fill out all portions of the profile and use the advice below:
* Don't give away any personal information like: home address, phone number, email, financial info or last name.
* Talk about you, you, you. Be sure to cover the qualities, attributes and characteristics that make you so great and unlikely to be on the market for much longer. Share your interests, hobbies and the parts of life that you enjoy.
* Avoid complaining about your evil ex, how you hate relationships or anything else that would put off a negative vibe. Remember, positivity attracts positivity.
* Don't forget to include in your profile a portion about what you are looking for in another person and what you want out of a relationship.
* Be honest and be yourself. If you lie about anything in your profile and end up in a relationship with an online match, the truth will eventually be revealed that the yacht and private jet you claimed to own were merely figments of an imagination belonging to a pathological liar.
* Upload a legit picture of yourself. Again, this is not the time to fib or photo-shop. Use a current, clear, close-up shot of only you. Don't forget to smile.
#2: MAKE CONNECTIONS. To really involve yourself in your new online dating community, it is essential that you put yourself out there, browse profiles and make connections with fellow singles. Every day, thousands of people sign up to dating sites...so be sure to log in regularly and search the database to see what kinds of matches you have. Many services will automatically email your matches straight to you, but if you don't have this option you'll have to do it manually. If you're a woman, throw out any old-fashioned ideas of the man being the one to make the initial contact...in this day in age it is perfectly acceptable to go after a man you like online.
#3: BE FRIENDLY...BUT NOT TOO FRIENDLY. While it is good to be proactive in your search for love or companionship online, it's also important to note that it should be done in a non-aggressive way. Flirting with someone is a lot easier online as the awkwardness and fear that sometimes comes along with flirting in-person is eliminated. However, if you are too pushy you run the risk of scaring off someone who could have been a potential match. So just like in face-to-face interactions, take your time and get to know someone slowly over the internet and see where it leads.
#4: UTILIZE ALL FEATURES OF YOUR ONLINE DATE SITE. Many online dating services offer a variety of communication tools that you should take advantage of: email, text chat, video chat, voice chat, etc. If you're anxious to start connecting, most dating sites have systems that indicate who's logged onto the site at that time. So if you're in the mood to interact with singles, you can set your profile to show whether or not you are available and get to mingling.
#5: DON'T PUT ALL YOUR EGGS IN ONE BASKET. Don't limit yourself to talking to just one person through a dating site. While you are single and uncommitted, it is okay to interact with a number of other singles. You want to get the most out of your online dating experience and put your membership to good use. Continue using the services of the dating site until a perfect match is made and the two of you decide on being exclusive.
