Getting Started Online

Make Your Dating Profile Stand Out

The first step to getting started online dating is to create a great online dating profile about yourself.

While it might be tempting to just write a sentence or two, with online dating, it really is a case of you get out what you put in.

With so many singles online, first impressions count, so it's worth taking the time to think about your online dating profile.

Your introduction should be interesting, honest, and approachable for the singles reading it.

Highlight things about you that can be conversation starters and help give potential partners something to write to you about in their first message.

Taking The Best Dating Profile Photo

A great dating profile needs to be matched with a top-notch dating profile picture.

Dating online isn't blind dating, so if you want to meet genuine singles, you'll need to look like one, which means having a dating profile picture.

The quality of your dating profile photo dramatically affects your online dating experience, so spend some time creating a good one. Here's some simple tips:

Some angles are far more flattering than others. Position the camera straight on or slightly higher than your face to find the best angle. Have a bright source of light pointing towards directly in front of your face.

Minimise background distractions by making your face the largest part of the photo, and keep anything behind you plain or tidy.

A smile is the most attractive thing you can wear and makes you appear welcoming.

Success Stories

Carol, 07 September 2025
The profile process is great, and very thorough, and being specific about what you're looking for makes it easy to see who's a match for you. We had a 90% match rate, and once we started talking it was clear that we were destined to be together, and this platform gave us the nudge we both needed. I can't thank you enough, I can honestly say that I have never been happier.
Steve, 28 January 2025
A wonderful person came into my life thanks to this site. I didn’t believe in love at first site until we met. And now I do.
David, 15 October 2025
I have been with a suitable lady now for about 4 months and will shortly be moving in with her. When we first met face to face, both of us knew we were meant to be together.
