Women get tons of likes from men and are slammed with messages. And there aren't enough hours in the day to get through them all. Men need their profile to stand out. They need to show personality or evoke some emotion or else they'll be ignored after a quick glance.

This is not an uncommon sight for men on OKCupid:

And the worst part - there are many awesome, interesting guys who rarely get matches or responses. I found my husband of 5 years on OKCupid, so I know they're out there!

The problem is in how they present themselves.

Take Jason for example, he may be a great guy, but…

…his profile doesn't show it. Even if he had a great opener, it may be ignored.

On OKCupid, your first profile picture plays a large role in your first impression, but so does the rest of your profile. Even if you have a great first picture, you're likely to be ignored if your profile looks like this:

You Need To Sell Yourself

When creating your profile, your goal is to sell yourself. It should be a combination of the right photographs, the right information, and your personality. It should also cater to who you are looking for. You want your profile to be a balance of telling the world who you are and telling the world what you are attracted to in a person.
