If you don't have a well-written profile, you might miss a romantic connection. The basics in both online and offline dating are similar. Just like on a first date where he or she has bad table manners, you could turn someone off with a poor choice of words.
An eloquent, five-paragraph essay isn't necessary, but having a logical and organized profile is necessary. You only have a few seconds to impress someone online so follow the basic rule of keeping it clean. Avoid slang and swear words (at least use them sparingly), avoid mentioning too many details, and stick to the point. Don't offend or bore the reader.
In addition to short and clean aspects of your profile, you need to be creative. This is a must, and maybe even more important than keeping it to the point.
Avoid describing yourself in a generic or clich way. Your profile is like a research project. For starters read the profiles of ten other men or women that you consider competitors because of your similar characteristics. For each person make a list of items they mention in their profile. You will most likely see that people write about the same types of things, for example interesting books or movies, enjoying travel or Chinese food. These things that you see over and over again are items that you should not mention in your profile. This is your chance to be different.
Similarly find ten men or women whose profiles you like the most and would be interested in getting to know. Again, read each profile carefully and make a list of the things he or she writes about. If you share any of those interests, then you should definitely mention this in your profile.
Once you've made a good impression on your potential connections with your profile, the point is for your suitors to see the common bond. For right now, just get him or her interested and woo them later in your e-mails.
