How to Search for People Online
3
Alright! You're ready to start talking to some people online! What do you do first?
Step 1: Go here to set up a new search. Here you can set your basic criteria which includes things like what age range you are looking for and how far away you are looking.
Step 2: Then, if you want to limit your search more, there are additional parameters you can set. These include things like appearance, lifestyle, and background.
Step 3: After you have set the parameters you want, click run search. Peruse the profiles you have found. And message anyone who piques your interest.
Step 4: Don't forget to press "Save this search" so that you can return to these results again in the future to see if new profiles that fit your search have popped up, or to peruse previous profiles.
Those are the basic steps to create a new search, and a way to save that search so you can return to it.
But, what kinds of searches should I run?
We recommend creating different kinds of searches, a few that are more specific and then a few that are much broader.
If you only stick to your "profiles between ages 30 and 32, who live 25 miles away from me, have hazel eyes and brown hair, went to trade school, have children, never drink, and prefer Charismatic liturgies" search, then you will miss out on some great people.
On the other hand, if you only search for profiles who are "anywhere in the world between the ages of 18 and 90," then you will have a lot of profiles to go through, and it might be easier to at least put a smaller age range in there.
Ultimately, your search criteria should ONLY eliminate those people you would turn down for a date if you met at a church function.
Alright, that's all. Go search! And don't forget, searching is just the first step. You won't get any dates if you don't show people you're interested in them. So, like and message away once you have found some profiles.
