When you’re looking at a potential dates profile it can be difficult to decide whether to get in touch with them when you can’t see the person. Online dating takes the nerves out of that first introduction allowing you to really think about what you’d like to say, however with so many members it’s never been as important to stand out. *Imagine...**you’ve seen two profiles, both mention they love to travel, dogs and cooking new recipes; all the things you enjoy. *

So who should you get in touch with? It’s hard to tell without a photo! That’s why uploading a photo is a vital part of your profile.

So don’t delay, uploading a photo is easy. Here are our top tips for the perfect picture;

Your photo should be a clear head-and-shoulders shot, with you looking relaxed and happy. - Be sure to smile. People are more likely to respond to someone who looks positive and approachable. - Photos are a great way to show off your personality so in your gallery, include pictures of you doing things that you enjoy such as country walks, day trips to the seaside, time with the family, etc. - Don’t leave people guessing who you are in a photo. It’s a good idea to have a selection of photos on your profile but be sure to include some of just yourself as well as with family and friends
