Posted: 11/6/2009 6:07:36 AM | Hi all,
I've been refining my profile over the last few days; not many people have visited it since I joined, and I'd be really grateful for any feedback anyone would care to give as to how I might go about changing that!
Be as harsh as is required - I might not like it, but it might be necessary! ;o)
Thanks and best regards,
Rob | |

Thanks again!

Posted: 11/6/2009 8:02:12 AM | You need a way better main photo. This comprises 80% of your profile. Then add 6-7 more of them. If the viewer doesn’t like the pictures, it won’t matter a bit what you write in your profile body as they will never read it.
Your profile is rather boring as well. Why do you start most of your paragraphs with a question?
Your first date is really boring.
And to answer your question about the women not contacting you. Depending on their age and hotness factor, women can get 10-50 emails a DAY. If you are sending out an email as boring as your profile do you think that will stand out amongst the other 49 she got that day?
Cheers!
PS – stop passing out your roses as well. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to tell you are spitting hot, hot fire at women. Women will notice that as well. | |

Posted: 11/6/2009 9:16:53 AM | Profile could use some work, but I keep drawing back to the photo. It's wrong on so many levels, I can't think where to start other than COLOR PHOTO!
You say one of your passions is photography, so get some good, attractive pictures that tell women who you are. If you trust a friend, have him take some shots of you riding a horse or doing some other hobbies you enjoy. | |

Photos have been tweaked; personally don't have issues with B&W images, but do take your points otherwise.
First date: being honest, that's what it'd likely be; if that's a boring scenario, so be it ;o)
Thanks again,

Posted: 11/6/2009 1:04:22 PM | Hi. Thanks for looking at my profile, and for your suggestions. I knew it was long, but just didn't know where to cut. Didn't realize I was excluding anyone, but I'm sure you're right and I will go back and have a look. As to your profile, your "about me" part is great - perhaps a little bit more about who you're looking for? That part just seemed very short compared to the "about me" part.
Thanks! | |

I think the black and white photo is unique ans serves its purpose. The only problem I found with was that at a thumbnail distance you look much older than you really are. Most viewers will see your primary in the thumbnail catalogue published from a search, matches or viewed me query.
Your profile text does have a slight " Cookie Cutter " feel to it. However I see a ton of potential as you do have a good base of text to work with. It's a tad bit too long. You have to remember the girls are going to be flipping through a ton of profiles and they want instant gratification. This is why such a huge emphasis is placed on photos.
I would suggest that you cut your profile down to two quick paragraphs. Hit em fast and hit em hard. Tabulate your success after a week. Then change up the two paragraphs. and asess once more a week later. Remember it's all about flow. You have to keep the potential hanging on every word you write. | |

Posted: 11/6/2009 4:02:49 PM | Current main photo really sucks. When I first looked I thought you were a 50 year old woman. Then when I checked your page and saw you were a 28 year old man, I thought you looked gay.
You really need a good new photo!!!!!!! Big smile please! | |

Appearance wise, I can't win - in that photo (essentially, the best I have for now) - I look older than I really am; in reality, I look younger. Guess I know which way round I prefer, though! ;o)
I'll revisit the text - I've been tweaking it on and off; it's difficult to know what to write initially; and in terms of 'selling oneself' the questions they provide as a guide aren't that much help. Ho hum.
Again, thanks for the constructive feedback.
Cheers

Posted: 11/7/2009 10:32:49 AM | ... a few drive-by thoughts...
I think you look cute in a mustache.
Why didn't you elaborate on the 'medicine' angle? Is that what you'll be doing in Cuba?
In your Interests field, add : Cuba, Spanish Then other with the same words in their Interests field will be able to find you.
In your last paragraph about who you're looking for, you have the word 'fun' twice. Dig out the old Thesaurus! | |
