With tens of millions of people competing online, you need to put extra efforts to stand out. If you have a great profile, then you have better chances of winning in this love competition. Here are top ten tips for men and women to build a perfect profile to find their soul mate.

1. Show, don’t tell. Don’t fill your profile with adjectives like funny, easy going, honest, dedicated etc etc. Instead show it. If you play any sport, don’t tell you love that sport. Just talk about the competitions you participated and the awards you won.
2. Use more natural and personal tone in your profile.
3. Survey the competition. Look at profiles of other people in your locality, and make sure you show your difference.
4. Remember, your photo is the most important element in your profile. Avoid wearing sunglasses and hats that make others feel you are hiding something. Smile. People want to spend time with happy people, and smile is what that shows you are happy
5. Stay out of your past. Nobody wants to hear how your ex-girlfriend cheated you. Stay in the present. Talk about your present life and how you enjoy it.
6. People keep mentioning that they are honest in their profiles. Please avoid doing it. It makes others feel you are not honest.
7. Don’t try to write a funny profile. But it doesn’t mean you have to be serious in your tone. Tell a funny anecdote, show you can laugh at yourself, or talk about a quirky movie. Self-deprecating jokes can work, but don’t go overboard. If you call yourself an idiot, then nobody hesitates to call you an idiot.
8. Your profile is not your dairy. Don’t discuss how you want to settle down, how you deal with your boring boss, all those stuff.
9. After you complete your profile read it from other person point of view and judge how well it works. If you feel any changes are necessary make them.
10. Don’t think that by posting a good personal profile your job is over. It is only half the battle. The other half is finding someone you like. Don’t wait for someone to find you and contact you. If you find any interesting profiles, contact them, express your interest, and then let your well-crafted profile and cute pictures draw their attention.
