The truth about Photos

The seriousness with which a person is looking for a partner is determined by factors such as how complete the profile is, what percentage of email he/she reads, whether or not the profile includes a photo, etc.

Oasisoflove.com's statistics show that Ads with photos get viewed more often, and therefore get more responses. In fact, some people do not look at ads without a photo as long as there are photo profiles to browse.

If your goal on oasisoflove.com is to find your dream mate, and you are serious about it, posting quality pictures is essential.

This is not unique to this web site. Other major photo personals sites report the same findings. Attesting to the fact that photos on your profile would facilitate finding somebody.

Posting a photo is great, but there is more you could do to make your personal ad stand out from the rest.

If you want your ad to be noticed, keep the following in mind:

• Showing a shot of your face is alright.

• However, having head-to-toe pictures is not only better, but very necessary. In real life, you see a person before you decide to talk to them. As much as we would like to believe that physical features are superficial, that it's the mind that matters, people nevertheless believe physical attraction has to exist between two people for a successful relationship.

• Furthermore, try to have high resolution pictures. The next time you're out in town, just stop by the photographer's studio for quality shots.

  Having high quality pictures on your profile would dramatically increase the number of people looking at your profile, and this ultimately brings you closer to finding your mate. If nobody is looking at your profile, it might as well not be on here.

Of course, some people have legitimate reasons for not posting a picture. Whatever those reason may be, you are still at a disadvantage by not having a photo posted.

Now that you know the importance of photos in your profile, what is your excuse for not having one?
