In the Profile Supermarket - You Need to be Top Shelf!

by Chris Benjamin

One of the best ways to practice surefire dating techniques is to work on meeting women online.



There are a lot of advantages to online dating, like having time to really think out your responses and not having to deal with the sting of rejections that are so difficult in real-life. But what is the key to getting noticed online? The secret lies in your online profile.

There are a lot of do’s and don’t’s when it comes to profile writing. If you take too many wrong turns you may end up wondering why you are not having any luck. The truth is, luck has nothing to do with it. Writing a successful online dating profile is an art, and it is not as hard as you think.

First off, there are a few deal-breakers you need to avoid at all costs when writing a profile. Whatever you do, do not announce what a nice guy you are. This is one of the most common mistakes



newcomers to online dating sites make. Avoid writing a resume-style description of your life, your job, or yourself. And please, please, whatever you do, resist the urge to post that picture of you doing a keg-stand with the guys, no matter how funny you think it is.

If these are examples of how to do it wrong, then how do you get it right? Let’s use some of David Deangelo’s priceless advice. For starters, use “cocky & funny” to get noticed. If you start out sounding like a suck-up, women will think you are needy and desperate. When in doubt, be funny.

In the words of David Deangelo - being cocky-funny is the fastest route to being noticed, both online and off. This rule especially applies to your profile! This might mean playing a little hard to get, implying that a woman will have to work to get your attention, or just indicating that any woman who catches your eye is one lucky lady.

Rule number two: don’t ramble on and on. Leave them wanting more, not less. Make them guess a little bit, instead of laying it all out there. Women love a little mystery, and if you make them wonder instead of telling them straight away, it will drive them crazy.

Last, but not least, use a photo that is current, interesting, and unique to you. If you are an outdoorsy type, use a good shot from a hike. If you travel a lot, post an image of yourself in an exotic place. Do not post a picture from 5 years ago. Be certain that the lighting and angle are flattering. The idea is to look like yourself, at your best.

Just remember these three tips: use humor to draw women in, keep it brief, and seal the deal with a picture that sells the image you want to get across. You can’t go wrong if you follow this advice.
