Internet Dating is Now the Quickest, Safest and Cheapest Way to Find the Partner of Your Dreams

With the Internet dating industry predicted to turn over GBP1bn in 2011, our love affair with online dating in the UK shows no sign of slowing down any time soon, according to London-based free dating website, Girls Date For Free.



    NORFOLK, ENGLAND, July 22, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- And with 15 million singles in the UK, Internet dating is now the quickest, safest and cheapest way to find the partner of your dreams. (Or enjoy a little online flirtation if that's your thing.)

Online dating is one of the Internet's largest business sectors and a completely acceptable - even fashionable - way to meet your partner. Gone are the days where an awkward silence would greet the question 'where did you meet?' These days a newly engaged couple are happy to share the fact they met online and are quick to divulge which dating site they used. In fact, a fifth of people marrying admit to meeting their partner online.

Dating in the UK via the Internet has become the "norm". But why is it so popular?

Our working lives are now so frantic, with long hours and busy schedules, we often have little time to socialise and meet new people. And spending a ton of cash hanging out in a bar or a club hoping to casually bump into someone you want to date can be a depressing waste of money.

So what's so good about Internet dating? It's easy. Internet dating is really easy. And it's safe. In fact, it's much safer to meet up with someone you've already chatted to online rather than meet up with some random person you met in bar last weekend. And it's private. You can chat via instant messenger, talk on the phone, Skype, and email from the privacy of your own home, before you even decide to meet.

With Internet dating you can choose to connect with people with similar interests to you, such as movies, books or films. Or you might want to meet someone with the same education or with the same lifestyle as you. Maybe you want someone in your local area who have a similar job. Or perhaps you fancy connecting with someone who's not your usual type.

One of the pluses about Internet dating is the sheer number of people to choose from especially on a free dating website such as Girls Date For Free.

Tips for successful Internet dating in the UK

Having a picture on your profile is essential. Numerous UK dating sites, including Girls Date For Free, allow you to search for people only if they have a profile picture. So if you haven't got a profile pic it's easy to get overlooked. And make sure you use a real image of yourself, preferably one where you're smiling, looking friendly and enjoying yourself. Don't choose a picture from five years ago. Or one that's been Photoshopped so much it doesn't even look like you! And don't use a picture of someone else. You're just setting yourself up for a whole bunch of dating disappointments.

Create a good screen name that's not too long and is personal to you. And write an eye-catching headline that isn't cheesy or smacks of desperation. Too many people write similar headlines, so it's worth choosing something different if you want to stand out from the crowd.

In your Internet dating profile it's important to describe yourself honestly. Say what you're like as a person and what your interests are, what you do for work and what hobbies you have. Don't just list them but go into them in some detail. Write something that will be interesting and make people smile. So avoid the usual 'I like country walks, having fun (who doesn't?), and snuggling up on the sofa with a bottle of wine' type comments. Too many people write the same thing and it can quickly get boring.

But don't boast. People who boast and brag are unattractive in real life as they are online. And don't fib on your Internet dating profile either. Pretending you're a professional scuba diver or a lingerie model may attract a certain type of suitor. But you'll quickly get found out. Don't be apologetic or negative or desperate. Be confident and remember to have fun. Internet dating is all about enjoying yourself.
