So, you’ve downloaded CLiKD! Congratulations, you’ve made an excellent choice, even if we do say so ourselves. As far as dating apps go, we’re all about quality over quantity, which is why we give daily recommendations based on your interests and you set up 3 dealbreakers for people to answer to match and chat. We want to help you make the best of your time on CLiKD. So, here are 8 tips for filling out your CLiKD dating profile…

1. Upload your best pictures

As much as CLiKD is all about personality, one of the best ways to show yours is through your pictures. Add pictures that show your face clearly and tell a story. Maybe a photo of you doing something you love, for example maybe you love painting. Also, pictures where you smile and have good lighting will always do well.

2. Pick your interests

This is an important step when filling in your CLiKD dating profile. You choose 5 interests (you can change them whenever you’d like) and this informs who will be in your daily recommendations (as well as your age and distance settings). There are interests such as ‘Adventure & Travel’, ‘Creative’, ‘Humour’, ‘Music’ and ‘Values’. Pick the ones that relate to you.

3. Set up your dealbreakers

For your CLiKD dating profile, setting up your dealbreakers is essential because without setting them up, you won’t get your daily recommendations, because they won’t be able to take your dealbreakers. This is the time to choose the either/or questions that are important to you. This will help you find people on your wavelength.

4. Add a tagline that stands out

The tagline is the time to show your witticisms in 50 characters. Give people a tiny glimpse into you with one line that really sums you up or what you’re looking for. Think of it like when companies come up with taglines. Something memorable that represents you.

5. Fill out ‘your story’ in a few lines

This is the perfect way to add a bit more about yourself in 250 characters (perfect for the lovers of Twitter out there.) How did you get where you are now? Maybe your story so far is that you’ve been travelling for a few years. Could be that your story is that you’ve been making clay pots as a side hustle. It’s another time to show more of your personality.

6. Add your job/passion

This feature on your CLiKD dating profile is amazing because even if you’re doing a job that isn’t exactly you’re dream, you can put what you’re truly passionate about as well. Maybe you work in banking, but you’re passionate about writing fiction. Share that!

7. Put what you’re ‘here for’

This is great for letting people know what’s happening and finding out you’re on the same page. On CLiKD, there are 3 options: Dating, Isodating (for if you’re dating while social distancing i.e. video dating) or Community Chat and Friendship. Being upfront will help others know where you stand with your matches early on, leaving more time to truly get to know each other.

8. Start taking other people’s dealbreakers ASAP

Now that you’ve done all this, all you have to do is see who you like in your daily recommendations and start taking their dealbreakers. The quicker you do, the more likely you are to meet someone on your wavelength.
