Always spell check your first letter.

Always use spell checker. Letter with grammatical errors looks bad and sloppy. Show respect to the girl you are writing to and make sure your spelling is correct.

Don't give your phone number in a first letter. She won't call anyway.

Don’t put your phone on the first letter. If you write this letter right she will give you her phone number soon. It’s always better when you are calling a girl first. Besides you don’t want your number to get to spammers.

Try writing girls without a picture in their profile. There is always a chance she is beautiful.

Should you write to girls without a picture in their profile? It’s similar to browsing the small dating sites. Competition is not too tight. Chances to get an answer are high. A girl without a picture in her profile will receive less than a hundred letters from a major web site altogether. And even less if she posts on a minor site. So she will almost certainly find and read your letter. But will you want to go out with her when you get her picture? You don’t know yet.

Overall, my answer is – go for it if you have time. Some of these girls without a picture are unbelievable. And you will be first to take her out.

Besides, often girls don't post a picture on the dating web site. Instead she will send you one with the letter. Ask her for one. I've met some truly beautiful women this way.

Small dating web sites. Use them if you have time.

Is it worth spending time browsing minor dating web site? It depends on how much time you are willing to spend on on-line dating. Most of the girls will post on the major web sites. So chances to find some one you like on the big site are big as well. But the competition is rather high also. So, if you feel like spending some extra time to explore minor dating sites – go for it. There are not as many girls over there to choose from but there are not as many guys who write them either. And sometimes you can find real gems on these small web sites.

Use simple and plain language in your first letter

User plain and simple language. Make your letter easy to read. Remember, she has hundreds of other e-mails to read. Make sure she will finish yours.

Don’t be too nice or she will get bored.

Don’t look like a really nice guy on your letter. Girls don’t like nice guys. They get bored with them. They like real men. Put in the letter something bad about yourself. Tell her how you’ve dropped your accounting job once, bought a chopper and down to Mexico for 2 month. Tell her about something wild you’ve done. And again don’t make it long. A couple of sentences are enough.

Be confident. Don't talk like a looser.

Don’t say puny fraises like “I don’t know if you are going to answer me…” or “I don’t think you will answer me but I decided to write you anyway…” It is some of the worst things to say. Don’t act like a looser. Girls like confident men. So be one.

Don’t criticize her for using internet dating. Aren’t you glad that she is?

Don’t ask her “What a girls like you doing on a dating web site?” It’s just a wrong question. Aren’t you glad a girl like this is posting on a dating web site? And aren’t you are doing the same? Remember, on-line dating is just an effective way to meet new people. So don’t ask why she is here. She is here with exactly the same reason as you – to meet some one.

Don't rush with sending a letter. Wait for a day or two.

Here is another trick I’ve used. When a new girls appears on the dating site, don’t send her a letter right away. Wait for a day or two. On the first day it’s too easy to get lost among the hundreds of other letters while on the 2nd or 3rd day it’s easier to get noticed. But don’t wait too long since she may stop checking her e-mails.

Don't ask for a date in the first letter. But don't wait fot too long. Ask her out when she's ready.

DON’T offer her an off-line date in the first letter. Chances for success are slim. Most girls will turn you down. Instead make her interested in you. Start a conversation.
And on another hand…

DON’T’t make your correspondence too long. There is no universal rule on the correspondence length. Sometimes you can ask her out in a second letter, sometimes even 10 is not enough. Just try to feel the right time to ask her out. But don’t wait for ever. Girl like resolute men.

Watch for girlfriend. With some reason many girls decide to go on-line along with their girlfriends. Make sure you never write to both girls. Even if you come up with two different letters, still don’t send them to both. Girls want to be unique. Make her to believe that you don’t write to anyone but her.
I new a girl who posted her profile on a dating site together with her girlfriend. And they immediately ruled out guys who wrote to them both. No matter how good these guys were. Here are some tips for detecting girlfriends:
they appear on the same day.
They may have similar pictures / profiles
they use the same mail service
If you suspect that these girls are together – pick the one you like most and write only to her. It’s better to get one answer then none.

Tell her about yourself. Tell her how good you are.

Tell her about yourself. What you like, what you do for fun. Be an interesting person, girls hate boring guys. Among you interest mention something smart. Books for example. Girls like smart guys. Mention that you are playing sports, let her know your are in good shape. Tell her you like to travel, she may think you can take her with you on the next trip. But again - make it short and informative. Don’t put stories about your last trip to Hawaii or your Small League game. Not now.

Be successful. At least in the first letter.

Remember, women like successful men. It’s a rule. So be one at least in the letter. Don’t lie about yourself but instead just arrange true facts about your life in the most favorable way. I am not going to tell you how to do it. Not even will give an example. Everyone can be successful and look good. No matter who you are – car mechanic or an MBA student. In a couple of sentences show her that you are proud of what you are doing, you are good at what you are doing and you have great future in this field. It’s better to be a car mechanic, best in town, than a pathetic MBA with puny boring job. Regardless of your occupation every one can be looser too.

Make it easy for a girl to answer your letter. Ask her questions.

Make it easy for her to answer you. In the end of your letter ask her a question. If she decides to write you back – she won’t have to think hard what to tell you. You already asked. There are two types of questions you can ask in the first letter: general and specific. General questions are like these:
what is your favorite club?
What flowers do you like? Etc. (flowers are always good – she may think you want to buy her some).
Read her profile and look at her pictures carefully and then ask her specific questions.
What ocean is behind you on the picture?
How did you get on that tree? Etc.
Overall rule: be friendly. Don’t ask a girl:
What did you do to gain all that weight?

Make your first letter to a new girl personal.

Make your letter personal. Make her to believe you are writing just for her. Girls hate to receive cliche letters. They want to receive a letter written just for them. So write one. Definitely user her name on the letter. Comment on what she wrote in her profile on the dating site. Say a complement. Be creative. Ask her questions about what wrote. For example, if she says she likes dancing ask her about her favorite style and ask if she’s giving private lessons. Let’s admit, we all use templates. But let’s do it a smart way. Customize your template for this particular girl, spend at least several minutes making your letter personal and interesting to read. It’s great if you have something in common. You traveled to same place, drive the same car or work in the same field. Tell her about it. And ask her a question about it. After that you will look more familiar to her then the rest of her correspondents. Ounce again, remember. She will get tons of template generated letters once she posts profile on the dating web site. Make your letter different.

Make your letter short. Make it stick out.

Make your letter short. How many letters do you think an average girl gets when she posts her profile on the dating site? I checked - several hundreds the first day. If she has a really nice picture - several thousand. This number gradually goes down as tome goes, but it is still way more than she can possibly read. Your goal is to make your letter read and competition is tight. So start with the subject field. Your subject decides if she will read your letter at all. So make it good. I believe it must be shirt, friendly and different from the rest. What most people put in the subject?
Correct answer: hi! So don't do it. Instead make it creative. Sometimes it works well to use her name in the subject. For example:
- Anna, this one is special! or Jane, you are beautiful!
Also might be a good idea to bring her attention with a catchy fraise. For instance:
- Surprise inside. or Don’t read this one
Again, be creative. I don’t like using stuff like :) in the body of the letter but I think the subject line might be a good place for something like this:
For you, Kate :)

wi-fi test

It's a mobile post.

Do not repeat yourself. Do not send girls the same letters.

Girls really hate it when they get the same letter twice. They want to believe every letter is unique and is written specially for them. So if you really like the girl - just write a new letter. And use different pictures too. It's worth the effort.

Might be a good idea to keep all the letters you mail out. Or even keep a database of the girls you wrote too. So when you see a girl you’ve already wrote to you could always refer to your previous letter and this time make a totally different one.

Don't send the same letter twice. Girls don't like it.

Make sure you NEVER write to same girl twice. Well... let me take this back. Make sure you never send THE SAME LETTER to same girl twice. It's a very typical situation when a girl is posting her profile again and again after some time period. This happened to me once. I wrote to a girl (and she had a killer picture too, I have no doubts she received hundreds if not thousands of letters) and she never answered to me. Some time later she posted her profile again. The picture and the words were different but I immediately recognized this cutie. I decided to write her again. But this time I came up with completely different letter. Different pictures too. I got a date with her.

Internet dating is impossible without a good set of pictures.

Always attach pictures. They must be of good quality, decent (suitable for day time broadcast) and not too big. 50kb per picture is enough. What if she’s still using dial-up? Do use Photoshop to reduce the size of the pictures and for some moderate editing. Make sure your face can be seen clearly and there are no other people in sight. Yes, it’s really bad to send pictures that show someone else. What if she likes that person better than you? Just get a good shot of yourself and send it out.

Start your first letter with greetings. Be friendly when dating online.

*) Start your letter with greetings and some explanation of why you write her. Tell her that you’ve seen her profile on dating site. Tell her you really liked her pictures and the story. Tell her you couldn’t resist and decided to write her a letter. Tell a complement regarding her picture (more about complement later). Remember, you are writing to a total stranger so explain where you got her address and why you decided to write her. It’s always a good way to start a letter.

Writing creative letter to a Dating Website

Talking about being creative… You can write? Offer her to write a story about herself. Or a fairy-tale. No kidding it works great! Ask her for some facts about herself and then promise her to send your creation. I know it’s hard. But it’s really worth the effort. I tried. Of cause this approach is good not for all girls. Try to sense her mood and then decide. But if you apply it to right girl you will be surprised with results.

- Offer her something unusual. Offer her some cooking lessons. Or promise to let her drive your ’68 Corvette (or your ‘96 Neon… just kidding, don’t do it).

Writing your first letter to a girl from Dating Website

Overall rule – make your letter short, friendly, informative and creative.

Short . She will receive hundreds or thousands letters. If she opens yours – make it easy for her to read it. Make every word count.

Friendly. You know almost nothing about your party. It’s better to assume she (just like most other girls) likes friendly guys, so be one. Don’t put anything offensive or ambiguous on the first letter. Let’s play safe.

Informative. Put your age, weight, height, occupation and some facts from your past in the letter. You want to get her on the date, remember? But not at any price too. I know it’s very tempting to make yourself look a little better on the e-mail. You may want to be a little younger (or older), taller (or shorter), bigger (or thinner) or even be of different gender (just kidding). I strongly recommend you NOT to do it. Be proud of who you are and honestly tell her about yourself. It’s a matter of honesty and dignity, guys. Don’t lie about yourself. If you lie and you start dating off-line then soon she will know that you were not true. And you will feel ashamed. And she will doubt your honesty. So just be true. I’ve learned it the hard way.

Creative. Make your letter different. Remember, she will receive at least several hundreds letters. So if she opened and read your e-mail don’t make her to regret it. Probably it’s one of the hardest challenges in this exercise. You need to come up with idea that will make a total stranger girl interested in you.

Be honest, guys. How many times you’ve wrote to girls from dating websites and never got an answer? I know – a lot. This happened to me too. I am not saying that with this guide to Online Dating will make every girl from the dating site want to write you back. No. But I want to share tactics and strategies that made my experience with online dating much more positive and effective.

Here is one important comment before we start. I am a computer professional by trade. And I don’t believe in on-line affairs. The real life is always off-line and even the best dating website is just a tool that helps you meet the right woman. It doesn’t matter what is you intension – serious relationships leading to marriage, romantic affair or just casual flirt. In my online dating experience I’ve always considered an off-line date to be ultimate goal. Once again, goal of all this e-mail writing is to meet the girl off-line. I personally don’t believe in long-term on-line romantic correspondence. It has nothing to do with dating. Internet can help you meet people, but real life is always off-line.
