I've had my own publicity firm in New York City for over 12 years, giving a powerful voice to people who are doing wonderful things in the world.
My very first publicity project was on the New York Times Bestseller List for 63 weeks.
I also write blogs for different blog sites: The Gatekeepers Post, Sherri Rosen Publicity, Examiner.Com, Triiibes, and Mr. Bellers Neighborhood.
Online dating is like the wild, wild west. One has to have a great deal of discernment in who they respond to, and to meet in public places.
Don’t have a negative attitude because you definitely will draw negative people to your site.
Good luck and don’t give up! All it takes is one good person.
By this list 99,99999….99999% of women on dating sites are not even worth a glance.
If they DON’T have a picture of a cat or bird or whatever the hell, then the spelling is horrendous ( and i am not a native speaker and even i am appalled ! ) and they barely post anything about themselves.
And don’t think P2P sites will get better results, those are jsut filled with hookers trying to advertise and you end up calling one interesting in a LTR and she tells you how much it costs.
Hi everyone, this article was truly written to help people out and protect themselves and how to keep yourself safe. I have also met some very nice people in online dating, but also have learned patience and discernment are most helpful. Fair is fair with photos, but again people do misrepresent themselves. Just be safe. And if someone gets angry at you for you being you, you know to stay far away.
How about stay away from online dating all together? That is what I am doing after so many people lying about age, looks, relationship status, or anything else. Before online dating it was ok to date slowly and meet people once in a while. But now people need a date every weekend and never commit to just one person… Thanks for killing romance online dating 🙂 At 40 I am already done with dating…
For some people online dating can be a really effective way of meeting people, especially if you are not into bars and night clubs or have a busy schedule that prevents you from going out lots. For me as a single mother I found online dating really effective as the fact that I was divorced and have a child is there in my profile, if someone has a problem with that then they will move on the the next person – no need for an awkward 1st date conversation. Also I can chat to or email potential dates at night… Read more »
Thanks for sharing your long run experience regarding online dating.. I hope this will help out people those are in queue of online dating saving their valuable time ..
No photos!? How did people ever meet before it was possible to post pictures online? Better stay away from anyone who doesn’t do what “most everyone” is doing. Wouldn’t want to date a non-conformist or anyone who has their own ideas about things, would we?
AnonymousDog, It’s a dating site, not a blind-dating site. I would not agree to meet any date sight unseen. I don’t respond to anyone who doesn’t post a photo.
You respond or not respond to whoever you want, but don’t tell me who I should or shouldn’t respond to, which is exactly what this article is trying to do. Don’t tell me who ‘is not for me’.
Do you understand what “advice” means? “Guidance or recommendations concerning prudent future action, typically given by someone regarded as knowledgeable or authoritative.”
The author isn’t saying that it’s her way or the highway, she’s just telling us things that worked for her that might work for you.
When “advice” is published in a magazine, or on a website, there is an implication that said advice is the ‘superior’ way to do things. Maybe my “advice” is: Don’t get hung up on photos, or the lack thereof. It is possible to disagree about the value of “advice” , is it not?
