CyberDating Ad Writing Tips

... So you can make a really great first impression.

Here are some of our best tips that will help you show off your better side when you write your personal ad.

Once you decide on what you want to say on your personal ad, fill in this form and we'll post it for the world to see.

Take a minute

If you are taking this business of finding a mate seriously, you should spend some time to compose your personal ad. Your personal ad is all that you have to introduce you to the reader. You only have so much space to make an impression. If you don't put some thought into it the reader will be able to tell that you just tossed together some stuff in a hurry. Press CTL-D on your keyboard now to bookmark this site. Then go and take some time to type your message into a word processor. That way you can work with the ad and refine it. Once you are satisfied with it and you have spell checked it, surf back and post your ad.

Prove it

Show them that you are what you say you are. If you have a great sense of humor, use humor in your ad. Don't just say "I have a sense of humor". That doesn't excite me. Prove that you are educated and intelligent by writing an extremely literate ad. If you are creative or artistic, give us a colorful and creative description of yourself. Remember, the proof is in the pudding.

Let it shine

Let your personality out. A personal ad can take many forms. Write a poem, a story, or a riddle perhaps. Blow them away with an ad consisting entirely of movie titles, one after another, that describes you. If you're not from Nantucket, try writing a limerick.

Show and tell

People want to know the same things about you that you want to know about them. Put yourself in their shoes and answer the questions that you would ask. Make a list of the things that you would like to know, then write your ad. Think about it... If you work, in what field? Have you ever been married before? Do you have children? Are you looking to make new friends, or are you looking to settle down. Keep in mind that common goals and temperament are often more important in a relationship than individual interests. An exact match may not be what you really want.

Let them decide

Try to avoid writing an ad that is just a long list of characteristics you seek in a mate. Tell them about you and let them decide if they might be a match. This does not mean that you should say nothing about what you seek, just don't overdo it. You do not want to be too picky. It's been said before... you never know who you'll meet!

Give us a clue

Ok - let me guess - I'd say you "enjoy movies, music, going out and cuddling by a fire". No guff - me too! That quote describes practically every human on the planet! Why not try to stand out from the rest of the crowd! You could always name a recent movie that you enjoyed; tell us what you liked about it. List some of your favorite music styles, song titles, or artists. If you love Italian restaurants, or line-dancing at country bars on Saturday night, say so! These are not boring facts, they are parts of your personality. This is the kind of information that we want to know. Add a little color. It's a personal ad - try to say something personal!

Be honest

So, you are lying to a prospective mate and you haven't met him/her yet. You'll go far. Honesty is the best policy. There really is someone for everyone. You may as well let them find you instead of disappointing them when they find out that you aren't who you said you were. Perhaps someone will love you just because you are so honest.

Make an effort

You've heard it before - the first impression is the most important one. If you want to make a good impression, don't make spelling mistakes. No matter how great your ad makes you sound, if you make a lot of spelling or grammatical errors in your ad they are going to think you are a buffoon. Write your ad in a word processing program and run the spell checker on it. Then cut and paste the text into your ad. Another quick point, type your ad in the correct, mixed case. Internet ettiquette is that if you write something in all capital letters, you are yelling at them. Yelling isn't really romantic now is it? If you're not sure that your ad is all that it should be, ask a friend to read it. Your friend will be sure to pick up the syntactical errors that elude your eyes.
