Craigslist online dating tips & secrets are something I get asked for a lot.
You know... http://www.craigslist.org/
It gets something like 2 million personal posts every month (total, not per city, obviously).
I hate Craigslist.
No, no... believe me... I really do. The whole site is a trainwreck in progress. If it wasn't for one thing, I would never use Craigslist.org again...
You can meet TONS of FANTASTIC people on Craigslist!
So as much as I hate it, I love it too. Here are some basic tips on Craigslist personals:
* Only use it if there is actually some traffic in your city. It's a legend in some places, and unknown in others. If it isn't getting at least half a dozen posts in the w4m (women seeking men) section every day, move on. (by comparison, CL: New York gets over 100 w4m posts and 500 m4w posts per day).
* If you use it, your headline better be a razor sharp fishing hook, not a lame pickup line. Nowhere is more critical to have a good profile headline than Craigslist.
* Have a picture or don't bother. People look at the posts that have pictures attached 8x more than the ones that don't. No pic = epic fail.
* Read some of the profiles that your competition are putting up. Some of them are so bad they are funny. It'll give you some encouragement to write a brilliant profile.
* Read the profiles of the people that don't have photos, not just the ones that do. I've often been pleasantly surprised later, many attractive people don't put pics up because they don't want to be recognized there. Also, they get about 10% of the mail that people with photos get, so you have much less competition!
Here's one more big warning for Craigslist:
I'm going to suggest you not waste your time replying to the posts of women who have HOT PHOTOS. Why? Because most of the women with attractive photos on CL are porn companies, or spammers. You'll get one or two generic emails from her, then something like: "Oh, I've moved to a new place to chat, check out: blahblahblah...." And then you've wasted a ton of your time writing brilliant emails to the bastard running the porn site.
If you do write emails, and certainly there are many women worth emailing there, you need to deliever a knockout first email. Re-read the chapter in Online Casanova about perfect first emails: http://www.onlinecasanova.com/
