Today Datingheadshots Inc. and Cupids Coach are please to announce a new partnership that creates a powerful executive dating solution for those that deserve the “Red Carpet” treatment and want to create the very best online image possible, not just an online dating image.

What truly amazes me is how many people throw up lackluster profiles and then are surprised that online dating does not work for them.

What’s the first that you see when you enter an online dating site? Row after row of photos of people that meet your search criteria. Do you click on every one of them and read their profile? No you skim through the ones that look appealing and then, only then, do you take the time to read the profile.

Your profile is your first impression and if you don’t make a good first impression then nobody is going to be that motivated to reach out to try and meet you.

So what are busy people or people that feel they deserve the very best going to do? They hire the experts to take care of them and get it done right. That’s what VIP Executive dating is all about… and is why the partnership with Cupids Coach is a One-Two-Punch to creating the perfect online dating profile with the perfect online dating photo and superbly written online dating profile.

This partnership sets the standard for creating the high-touch executive dating or VIP dating experience that many clients have been looking for. These are the type of people that want the best and expect the best. They know that their online image matters and they are willing to do what it takes to create the best image possible, an image that will set them apart from the crowd.

Although MySpace and Facebook are not officially online dating services, many people from 18 to 34 years old use these social networking sites to get dates in their area. A lot of people find MySpace and Facebook dating easier and less expensive than using more traditional online dating services like Match and eHarmony

Unlike most online dating services, Facebook and Myspace allow its users virtually unlimited control of their profiles. You can post up pictures, wallpaper, animations, videos and so on. In addition, you can leave comments on your friends’ profiles and they can leave comments on your profile. This allows you to see what kind of friends your potential love interest has. After all, “The best mirror is in the eyes of your friends”.

Although MySpace and Facebook allow its users to be more interactive with their profiles and communication, websites that are used solely for dating don’t have as much guesswork involved. For example, many people on Facebook and MySpace are just there for their friends, but people on official dating websites are there to find other singles like themselves, so you know that no matter what, the person you’re contacting will be looking for a date.

However, the thing that most online dating websites don’t have is the ability to find dates through your friends. With social networking sites like Facebook and MySpace, it’s easy to find new friends through the people that you already know. By simply viewing your best friend’s profile you can click on attractive people on his or her friend list and add them to your contacts. This is a good way to start meeting new love interests because you already know you have something in common – you’re both friends with the same person.

Another great thing about dating through Facebook and Myspace is the amount of pictures you can put on your profile. When it comes to online dating websites, the profile picture is usually the first thing people see and there is usually a limit to the amount of online dating photos you can display. However, with social networking sites you are able to display an unlimited amount of photographs and you can organize them into convenient folders. Not only that, but your friends and potential love interests can comment on your photographs and you can comment on theirs.

When it really comes down to the nitty-gritty, social networking sites like Facebook and Myspace aren’t completely ideal for dating. They’re used more for keeping up with friends and making plans for the weekend. However, they do have their potential. If you’re younger and looking to meet new people to date, social networking sites can help you find dates through friends you already know. Also, you can do more with your online profile than you can with most online dating services.

Yet, websites that are specifically designed for dating are much better for people looking for one specific thing – singles. There are no games and there is no middle man, it’s simply a bunch of singles looking for a date or a long term relationship.

One other difference between social networking sites and dating sites is money. Now, not all online dating services charge money, but most of the better ones do. But, with social networking, you’re guaranteed a good service without having to pay any money at all.

So, are sites like Facebook and Myspace really better for online dating? No. There is no definite site that has more success in the online dating world. What it really comes down to is your online dating profile picture and how your profile is displayed, as well as your preference concerning the flow of a dating website. All online dating services display themselves differently and cater to a specific demographic, you have to figure out which one is right for you. Trial and error is the best way to go.

So I admit that I don’t have a lot of time but I do try to hit CNN so at least I have some idea what is going on from time to time. Of course the dating related articles always catch my interest and the  other day I saw this article by Leonora Epstein writing for the Frisky ( www.frisky.com) which I thought was really great and broken down her research on what were some of the automatic online dating deal breakers that she has come across over the years and in interviewing woman especially. Of course the first thing that came up was dating Photos.

Here is Leonora Epstein’s take on what is an automatic turn off fro women when they look at a guys photo,

Pictures:

•When his pic is a glamour shot

• Making weird faces with a caption “two hours of sleep!” Either he’s seeking sympathy, or showing how he parties too hard.

• When there is no photo. Moving on.

• Shirtless poses. Can you spell cocky?

• Clown masks, or equally freaky and elaborate Halloween costumes. Scary! Not funny!

• More than one of the pictures is with his “bros” out in a bar getting sloppy.

• When he poses with girls. First, do you have a girlfriend? Huh? Second, pretty sure that girl doesn’t know you’re using her photo, and doubly sure she wouldn’t be too happy about it. The Frisky: No-nos for online dating photos

OK so that about sums it up when we try and explain the simple ways that guys can improve their profiles, fix the photo first and follow some of these simple rules …its not us that is telling you this its the women that you want to date! Besides, don’t you think that the online dating companies should be teaching you this stuff rather than burying it in some obscure ” How-to” section on their websites ??

It really drives me crazy when people could be so much more successful if they would only follow a few simple rules.
