Christian singles, don’t forget the importance of the title:
Create a catchy title for your profile. When members search listings on the site, the title is listed next to your name. As a general rule, titles like “Hi” do not catch people’s attention, whereas more personalized titles do. If you can’t think of something, ask a friend for help. Make it warm and inviting, and true to your core personality.
The best online
dating service on the internet offers a free introductory membership:
We offer a variety of membership packages. Standard membership is free.
You can chat, send instant messages and browse through our worldwide
database of profiles (personals ads). You also have access to our
interactive magazine, where you can post or answer advice questions, post
poetry or articles. There’s plenty to do as a standard member.
If you decide you want to speed up your search, consider one of our premium memberships. They offer far more privileges and cost as little as 25 cents (or less!) per day. You can send a video greeting, and much, much more.
We work on a membership system so that we are able to keep data files that contain your profile information and other information, such as your “favorites,” etc. Guests may enter the site and browse the listings, but in order to post a listing and use the many features on the site, you must become a member.
A few suggestions to make your Christian single’s personals ad (aka essay) intriguing!
Think before you write. Feel free to write as much as you want in our essay portion of the signup pages. Tell other members about yourself; for instance, your likes and dislikes (A Note from Cherishmates.com: Go easy on your dislikes; A long list may give members the impression that you are too picky, or too hard to please, or that you are a negative person whom no one could satisfy.) Also, if you wish, tell what line of work you’re in, describe your personality, even your hopes and dreams. Tell about your love relationship with the Lord and how important He is in your life. The better your profile describes you, the more likely it is that others will read and respond to it. But bear in mind, Christian singles, that you are writing to people you do not know, so don’t give your full name, address or other sensitive information. A nickname which you make up for this Christian online dating site will be fine, but be sure its positive. And in keeping with your security, open a separate e-mail address for your correspondence with online members of this dating site. Remember; put your best foot forward Christian singles. As I will show you later, your positives greatly outnumber any deficiencies, real or imagined. If you can’t think of everything you want your potential loving Christian mate to know right away, you can always add more later. And don’t forget to fill out the optional profile questions- these will also help other members get to know you even better.
Another point to bear in mind, if you have a hobby, favorite sport, or special interest which usually appeals to only men or only women, remember you are writing to the opposite sex, so in your profile just list these without a lot of description, or your online dating prospect’s eyes may glaze over. This is overkill to the opposite sex, when you men tell ladies more about catching and cleaning fish than they ever wanted to know; or you ladies tell him about using a bag of leftover yarn to crochet your ski pole covers. Sometimes too much information dims interest. But do tell of all the things that interest you, and if the Christian single man reading your profile also loves to crochet (and there are many men who love to relax with a crochet hook and yarn) you will have a great ‘hook” of a different kind! And if a sweet Christian woman reads that you love fishing as much as she does, you will soon be sharing the best places to fish, and maybe even exchanging some fishing tales (or “fishy” tales, as the case may be!)
If I may give you an assignment, Christian singles, please read other profiles available on the dating site and try to spot things that work and things that do not work. Generally speaking, on a Christian dating site, it is not wise to use sexy or provocative handles or nicknames. Perhaps a friend could help you think of a name that catches the reader’s imagination, and also describes you or some or your interests in a friendly welcoming way. For instance, if you are a die-hard racing fan, the name you choose could help you find that unique lady who loves going to the races. If you have a friend who has written a great profile for a Christian dating service you could ask for suggestions.
The main thing and most important advice anyone could give is be truthful and to thine own self be true, as well. One of the many advantages you will appreciate, signing up with a Christian Personals site is that its category (Christian singles site) will turn- off the vast majority of flakes, freaks, phonies, and deadbeats. They will give a collective, global eye roll when they come to the Christian singles category and go “eeeww” or use other colorful expressions of disgust. And then they will (thankfully) move on to greener pastures in the secular sites, and not ever get as far as reading your profile or seeing your picture, to which we can only give a collective global sigh of relief! Yes, by the way, we reach a global audience, which is why we share the good news of the everlasting Gospel on this site. Our beloved Jesus, called Faithful and True in Revelation because He is faithful and true, desires a close intimate relationship with you, and if you meet a Christian single who is just as much in love with the Lord as you are, you have the strongest glue in the world to hold you together when difficult times come.
