Sooo curious to know what exactly people look for in a profile. I know everyone is different. Feel like there is a million profiles with next to no content but a lot of verifications etc… can anyone shed some light  |

"They are the people who are out and about at socials and parties, meeting people face to face. They don't depend on their profile for meets which is the correct way of going about it imo  "
That sounds about right and I agree didn’t think of it that way. Also interested in seeing what people are looking for in profiles |

"As a couple looking for a couple I'd say pics of the male half are needed on more profiles and I don't mean the lynx can pose just general pics"
Yes we try to mix ours up a bit. We are both comfortable but keep most for friends only. Should we change it up a bit?? |

I wouldn't say you need to change them necessarily, as you said you keep more for friends only and the ones you have is showing both people.
That was more of a general thing on couples profiles not yours specifically

First thing I do when looking at a profile is check do they want to meet single men, if not then for me I have no reason to message them and bother them.
After that see if they are verified and read through the profile. You don't want it too short or too long, very much a Goldilocks zone. |

It’s nice that some people appreciate the “no single men” thing
We get a lot of messages from single guys anyways although we have this in place. |

Time to throw on some filters then? Good luck with it. |

You'll never please all of the people all of the time so I'd say put in your profile what you want people to know about you...who you are, what you're looking for, what you're bringing to the table. If your bio reflects your personality, all the better.
Ours is probably too long for most people's tastes, but everything's in there to allow people to decide whether there's likely to be common ground |

I'd say firstly we'd have a look at the photos and see if there's attraction. Then their bio to see if their interests are similar to ours, especially given that we're a bi couple. We're possibly not typical given that our opportunities for meeting are so limited - I work nights & weekends - so we might also look to see if they mention when they're available. |

Just our preferences…
Enough in the photos of both partners to allow physical attraction (or not) be determined - profiles with all cock pics, pics of her only, select close ups of body parts or deceptive angles are insufficient for us. We like physical expectations to match reality.
Enough verifications (displayed) to prove bone fides is essential for us. Three or more is preferable.
Enough in bio to answer questions that are needed to be teased out in messaging is desirable. We feel we’ve done people a turn if they read our profile and decide not to message us on the back of it, by saving their time and effort. |

Everything that A1 said
One other thing we look for (probably subconsciously) is positivity and personality in the bio, I don't think you can fake those. So demanding bios full of what they don't want would be a red flag for us. |

Consistency and effort regardless of who they are.
If the bio says one thing and the pics or verifications say otherwise it's a big no.
If the profile has a sense of humour and forum engagement gives an impression of being approachable that's always much more attractive.
It's often said that women and couples don't have to make an effort on here as they will be inundated with offers regardless.
That's probably true but they can't really complain then when they attract other lazy can't be arsed profiles. |

Horses for courses. Some people tell you EXACTLY what they want because that's exactly what they want. Others are more open. It's the engagement with the person that will tell you all you need to know. |
