Creating a great profile means selling your greatest strengths and attributes. Like creating your personal resume. Most reputable online dating sites provide a multiple choice matching as well as a brief description of yourself and what you are looking for. After someone finds his or her "match", it is your description of yourself that makes you shine. So take your time and fill in your description completely, Two to three sentences are considered perfect. You can always come back to your description later to update it People who don't fill out their descriptions properly are not taken seriously and often get passed on for other profiles that look more genuine. Be honest in your ad.
Describe yourself accurately and most important honestly. Include real data like your height, body type, weight and educational background. Show your personality. Talk about hobbies, activities you enjoy, movies, interests, books, or music you enjoy, do you like to travel, (don't disclose your place of employment.... keep it general: I am a nurse, an accountant, etc). Don't give away too much information...just write enough to spark an interested. Leave something to talk about later.
Share your thoughts, you don't have to just write facts. Nobody wants to read a profile that's all touchy-feely, Keep your profile alive. Write as if you're talking to your best friend. We want to know more about the Real you like where you're from, what you want from life, what makes you laugh, what you love about life. DON'T focus on only one part of your life: You may love dogs, love to ski, those are great things to mention in your profile. Say something about you, add your personality and humour into what people are reading. Don't try to make false impressions. False impressions will back fire as much as they will in the rest of your life. Relax, and let your true self show through. There are people who will like who you are. Believe in yourself and the fact that you are worthy of that someone special.
Keep it all Positive Don't dwell on your problems and limitations. Now is not the time to be talking about why you got divorced, or problems at work. Those are things that you can mention, you can talk about these things once you have gotten to know someone
What you are looking for: Keep your options broad. If you write you are looking for the love of your life and nothing less then there is a good chance your going to scare potential candidates away before even talking to them. Remember the majority of relationships you have been in have started from being friends first and then something developed from that
