istock_000002205818xsmall1.jpgWhether you’re online or off, first impressions are still very important. And it’s really all about the interface, which means you need the right picture and a solid one-line description of yourself. Dress up your profile page as you would dress up on your first date.

Or better still- be in your best CV - writing mode while you set up your web interface. As they say, accentuate the positives and eliminate the negatives. Just never, ever, make things up. Sometimes, a guys post a picture of themselves taken from five to ten years back when they were ten kilograms lighter and had one kilogram more hair. Reality does struck, but there are some things you can’t run away from.

Don’t try to be anything you are not. Any potential love of your life will want you the way you are - so, no need to be Mr Someone Else. Creating a fictitious persona will simply make your position in your offline dating endeavors untenable. And really, isn’t online dating all about making that definitive paradigm shift into the real world? So come what may, be real and be you.

Post a flattering photo of yourself. The rule of thumb is to make sure that the photo should attract and not subtract. If you can’t get a nice photo of yourself for whatever reason- forget about putting up your pictures at all. Pictures that may help you get positive attention from potential dates include your new sports car or your feet. Check out profiles of people who don’t plaster their face all over the page and draw some inspiration there.

Avoid bringing up your core character flaws in your one-line descriptions, even if you are trying to exude deadpan humor. Those who don’t know you in real life are unaware of your style of humor-(dry and self deprecating). Complete strangers may not get you(or some may even run away from you) when you say something like: “Ambition-challenged beach bum who thinks that money is overrated.”
