Press Release Body: Are you single and ready to get back on the dating arena? These
days, it can be a big ordeal to meet people who can be a good match to your
personality, lifestyle and interest. Nowadays, Internet can be a tool to save you
from these disappointments, you can meet a good guy if you safely explore the
wonders of online dating.

You can find several sites that offer their service as an online dating portal, they
aim to match people by becoming a venue for social interaction. Joining this
activity can be exciting but scary at the same time because talking to a stranger is
a nerve wracking task for most people and at the same time there are many people who
would want to take advantage of your vulnerability. So here's the top 5 smart moves
to keep you safe while trying your luck to find Mr or Ms Right, online.

1. Most online dating sites rely on profiles, the first tip is do not post other
people's photo. If you're serious about finding someone online, be real. You
wouldn't want other people to like you for something you are not. Write down your
hobbies, interests to attract people that are in your league.

2. Be wary on the information that you reveal. Sure, you can share the books you
read, favorite sports, music or movie genre preference but do not give away your
exact location, phone number, credit card details or other personal information
beyond common details such as age, gender, preference. Don't be paranoid but
remember that prevention is better than cure.

3. Once you start to get to know people through messaging, have an open mind in
interacting with other site members. You might prefer the tall, dark and handsome
types of men or the blonde blue eyed ladies but leave an open possibility to meeting
those that doesn't fit your type. Other options do exist and it might be much
better.

4. If you feel that you want to take a step further to get to know a person you met
online, gadgets like webcam and microphone are useful. Webcams can help you have a
semi live interaction instead of exchanging emails of instant messages. Microphone
on the otherhand can save you from high phone bills. Before deciding to finally meet
for a date, you can screen the person by having a webcam conference, wherein you can
see their expression. Both of you can be nervous but you can't certainly fake
sincerity.

5. When both of you decided that its time to meet or have a real life date, make
sure to go on a public place or settle for bring a friend date so that you can free
yourselves from hassles and be safe from scammers. Not everyone who joins dating
sites wants to find romance, others are there to take advantage so pay attention if
they are consistent on what they say or do.

The final advice is to have fun on your online dating experience, it may be risky so
try to follow these steps and your common sense. If you are ready to spice up your
lovelife through the Internet, visit and register on online dating sites.
