HIV Personals Tips – From Mediocre Personals Profile to Perfect Partner

By: Tonya Lill

When you write your HIV personals profile it is a good idea to remember what you are writing it for and why. Your profile is your advertisement to the other members of the HIV dating site. You are selling yourself as a likable friendly, fun individual, who others really would benefit from getting to know better.

Now obviously your personals profile is going to be competing for attention with many others on the HIV dating site, so it is vitally important that you ensure your profile quickly catches readers attention and interest if it is going to fetch you the desired response you rightly deserve.

Tip 1 – Research

Find out what elements make HIV personals interesting. You can do this by browsing through the other member’s profiles on the HIV dating site. Read through these profiles looking for one which grabs your attention. If it grabs yours, it will likely as not grab the attention of others as well.

Examine this profile closely and find the part that makes it stand out from the others you have read. Whatever it is they use, see if you can find a way to use the same idea in your profile. Can you turn the information around so that it conveys your life and circumstances without it losing its spark and appeal? If so write it down in your words. Now continue looking through other HIV personals for more inspiration, until you have a whole bunch of great ideas you can use to spice up your own personal profile.

Tip 2 – Be Clear!

When you have enough ideas it is now time to think about writing. However, before you start bare in mind that you have only a short time to grab the attention of your reader. If they are bored they will click away to the next HIV personals profile. Therefore you need to keep your sentence structure short and sharp. No over detailed descriptions, abbreviations or complicated wording. You want your profile to make sense to everyone who reads it.

You may think that you are not interesting enough, so it may occur to you to possibly extend the truth a little. Never do this! Tell it as it is, just find interesting ways to convey what it is you have to say, but never lie. If you find it hard to believe that you have anything interesting to say, then leave things unsaid, for example I know a gentleman who loads refrigerated lorries full of food all day. Sounds boring right? But written as ‘I work in sub zero conditions with foods of tropical locations’ it sounds completely different. People will be intrigued. There is no fabrication going on, but see how it creates more mystery and the only way someone will get to know your job is by contacting you… Bingo, job done!

Tip 3

Remember that your HIV personals profile is a personal document, so ensure you add lots of personal information and personality. Tell people about yourself, your likes and dislikes, how you spend your free time etc. Put your own character into your descriptions and remember to include the great ideas you found in tip 1.

Should you find that after writing your profile it is not snappy enough. Try and get the sentences shorter. Read your copy aloud to yourself and remove anything which does not add to the description. Ask yourself after each sentence what does that tell the reader? If nothing, remove it, if it is a long sentence see if you can reword it so it says the same thing with a more snappy crisp tone.

Tip 4

By including a quality photograph with your HIV personals profile you will significantly improve response rate. Make sure the image you upload is of you alone and is of good quality, with you in close up. Try and make the photo interesting as well. Have one taken of you doing something you enjoy, this way your image will back up your profile.

Tip 5

Go back to your HIV personals profile and update it regularly. Add news things you have done, seen or read, places you have visited etc. This way readers will know you are actively using the HIV dating site and it will keep interest alive. Also by regularly altering and amending your profile it will appeal to a wider audience. Therefore someone who was not interested until you added that you are learning to ski now sees you in a different light and may want to get in touch. They may never have spoken to you if you had stuck to the same HIV personals write up.

By using all these tips you will give yourself the edge when it comes to writing your HIV personals profile. Your profile will be in the small minority of appealing and interesting profiles so will therefore boast better responses. Writing your profile for the HIV dating site is like everything else in life, if you want to stand out you have to do something different.
