500 characters to make someone curious. Five ideas to make your profile text stand out.

A couple sharing a warm moment

Your photo gets the first look – your “About me” gets the message. You have 500 characters, so make them count.

  1. Be specific. “I love travelling” says little. “Last summer I took the night train to Vienna just for the cake” says a lot.
  2. Show, do not list. A short story beats a list of adjectives.
  3. Say what you are looking for. Honesty saves everyone time.
  4. Add a conversation starter. Ask a question people want to answer.
  5. Fill in the rest of your profile. Every completed field improves your matches – and earns you Coins.

Keep it positive, keep it you.
