Putting in the effort to create an interesting and exciting online dating profile can pay off in the long run, as it may make people far more likely to contact you in search of a date.

Glamour magazine has published a series of hints and tips for those who want to refresh their page on a dating site, noting there are several signs that can give away just how long you have been looking for love.

For instance, if your profile still pledges support to Barack Obama in his election campaign or features photographs of you with a different colour of hair, it has probably been too long since you edited it.

It is also important to have details such as job titles up to date, as it can sound strange if you claim to have been in work for years but your profile maintains you are still at university.

There is nothing wrong with being on a dating site for months or even years, but there is no need to tell everybody.ADNFCR-2867-ID-801581462-ADNFCR
