| The
more people that view your profile, the more chances you will have to find the
perfect partner. Here are a few tips to help you write an attention grabbing headline
that reflects who you are and ultimately gets people interested in taking the
next step and make contact with you. |

Check out the profile headings of the online dating
sites you plan to post to and see how they format their headings. Locate the directory
that you would be listed in - men's, women's, friends, etc. and check out the
competition. Use your imagination to create a unique heading that draws attention.
Consider asking a Question Questions often elicit a response
because people are drawn to provide an answer. Make sure it is relevant to your
profile and better yet, have it pertain to an interest or particular characteristic
you would like to have in a date. Avoid overused Headlines
Check out the headlines that are being used on other date sites. If you choose
to use one of the ideas you find there, be sure it isn't one that is overused.
Tiresome repetition can be a turn off to anyone looking through thousands of headlines.
Your choice should be totally relevant to who you are and reflect the attribute
you are seeking or want to share the most. Clichés - DON'T Using
clichés will be as productive as spinning your wheels. Clichés not only make us
groan, but they lack imagination. How many "Mr. Rights" can there possibly be?
To offer a unique profile, avoid using them like the plague. : ) Quotes
say a lot Spiritual, funny, prophetic, political or almost any trait
you can think of can be expressed by a quote. It can be the perfect statement
of the characteristics that you want represented in your headline or even your
philosophy on life. Avoid using Emoticons or Excessive Punctuation
Unless the smiley face is a reflection of your personality, it is smarter
to leave out the cutesy expressions, symbols, punctuation or emoticons. Using
them may give the impression of a childish or immature personality. Play
on Words and Puns Humor is one of the attributes that almost everyone
is looking for in a partner. Using puns or a play-on-words can draw those same
types to your profile. But be careful not to use a phrase that may be seen as
sexual or improper. Share your Special Interests and Hobbies
If you are a pet lover, a motorcycle enthusiast, or some other special hobby
or interest, use it to draw others with the same interest to your profile.
