Hi
I've noticed (as far as we're concerned anyway) that it's gone very quiet in our inbox 
Anybody else noticed this?
Maybe to do with the Olympics or maybe we need to revamp our profile, long overdue I know |

Yeah, a year or more on Fab is practically veteran status! Lol! Looking rather yummy though!
The quietness is probably the olympics and holidays combined. |

see thats going to appeal to you.... but not to everyone...
case in point.... its short.... but it doesn't actually "anything"....
tells me nothing about the couple themselves.... tells me nothing about the type of couple they are after....
profiles are very subjective....
whenever people talk about profiles, i ask people "hand on heart would you answer your own?"
if the answer is yes... keep it
if the answer is no... change it
simple as.... |

"Do people just sit back and wait for the messages to pour in?
Go browsing and send some out to people that interest you as well  "
We do that and are still doing that, we are proactive on here but initial messages to us are a bit few and far between at the mo |

I'd lose the new bit - in fact I've never understood why people put that anyway - you can see how long someone's been in site and so many never update their profiles even after months ( or years!) it can seem to others that they aren't interested in keeping their details up to date!
A bit more text wouldn't necessarily be bad - just some info on what you like (avoid the big 'do's and dont's style lists though!) and keep it up beat!
Pics are great! As for it being quiet? Might be the Olympics but i'd guess it probably has more to do with the school hols!
Those pesky kids!!!!  |

I think it is a combo of Olympics and holiday season that slows a lot of things down, mind you if I get a message or 2 in my inbox in a week that feels busy...
On a serious point though, I do think your profile could do with a revamp as it's only 2 lines. It is succinct and sometimes less is more, but maybe you could do with perhaps an extra paragraph.
You do have a lot of public pics, showing you as an active swinging couple and clearly showing what you like to partake in, so no problems there.
Hope that helps. |

well maybe add some more profile text, dont have to be much, maybe just say what your looking for
and if you take some new photos and upload them that always gets you extra attention as it will show the new pics in the local and friends updates
can sometimes even work by taking the existing photos down and re-uploading. that way they will show up as new |

We like to brows other profiles and send a few winks and messages but more and more profiles seem really angry, DON'T WINK, DON'T MESSAGE us or you WILL BE BLOCKED. We quite like getting winks and messages, it's nice to know people find you attractive. Something exciting about logging on and seeing the message box coloued yellow. |

I have to agree with Fabio, the profile is pretty poor. Unless you like pitures. The text says nothing.
And personally speaking a profile that states someone is new when they clearly aren't is enough to get me moving on. It smacks of laziness. |

Actually thinking about it, we have played with about a dozen couples but the vast majority were couples we met at clubs, not from here
People on here talk a lot and not much else in our experience it's hard to transfer messages into meets but we'll keep trying |

It is quieter here atm... in my town - car parking spaces appearing as if by magic etc.
I'd definitely remove the newbie bit, and add a little flavour of who you both are. You could add some more of him into the pics, so that the ladies etc get a feel of what could be coming their way next etc. People who've looked before may then find that you really are more than appealing enough for them. |

Agree with others need some more text about yourself.
We are away at the moment but found our inbox is still busy, however not had time to answer but just enough time to sneak on here lol
We have been lucky and had lots of genuine meets through this site
Good luck to you |
