Writing a personal ad

Writing a personal ad is easier than it looks, and on Photopersonals.uk it is the single most important thing you can do to start better conversations. A few honest, well-chosen lines tell other members who you are and why they might enjoy chatting with you. Here is a simple structure, with examples you can adapt.

Writing a personal ad in three parts

  • The hook. A headline or first line that hints at your personality.
  • The picture of you. Two or three sentences on your humour, interests and mood.
  • The invitation. What you would love to chat about and how to start.

Examples you can borrow from

"Night owl with a weakness for terrible puns and good red wine. I love a cheeky conversation that gets warmer as the evening goes on. Tell me the best thing that happened to you this week."

"Quietly confident, loudly opinionated about biscuits. Happy to chat about anything from films to fantasies, as long as you bring a sense of humour."

Notice how both examples end with an easy way to reply. That small detail can double the number of messages you receive.

Mistakes to avoid

Long lists of demands are off-putting. So are profiles that only say what you do not want. Avoid clichés like "just ask" or "I'm normal", which give nobody anything to respond to. Do not include your full name, phone number, workplace or anything that could identify you outside the site. And check your spelling: it really does matter to many readers.

Write as you speak

The best personal ads sound like a real person talking. Read yours aloud. If it sounds stiff, loosen it up. If it sounds like everyone else, add one specific detail that only you would write, such as your favourite rainy-day ritual.

Finally, revisit your ad every few weeks. Tweaking a line or two keeps it current and shows you are active.

Let your ad do the talking

A good personal ad is short, specific and honest. Mention two or three things you enjoy, say what kind of chat you are after and add a touch of humour. Members reply to people, not to lists of requirements.

  4. Send a personal message and let the conversation build.

What I like to do the most is spending some time in the watering hole together with my mates and making sure that I get all the hard drinks that I want until I get tipsy but not up to the point that I am as drunk as a lord.

Snogging and having a leg over in the car while a lovely music is on sends me on cloud 9. It's what I call the feeling of reaching ecstasy - that moment when I forget who I am and I just want to have more.

I'm the artsy type who loves to express herself through painting nudes while not wearing any article of clothing. I quite like how paint feels dripping down my skin. I'm messy when I do my artworks which explains why I started painting starkers.

To be jackhammered by a savage man is what I've been fantasizing about. Not sure if it will ever happen as men I've known are so gentle. They treat me nicely in bed. What they didn't know is that I'm up for some sort of roughness.
