"Hi, I'm Marilyn Anderson, I'm the author of the dating book "Never Kiss a Frog." I'm here today on behalf of expertvillage.com to talk about how to do effective internet dating. Right now we're talking about the dos and don'ts of writing an effective profile. One thing that I want to tell you that's a don't is don't be too long. People want to know about you, but they don't want to read your life story and they don't want a manifesto. So keep it to a reasonably length so people won't get tired of you. Remember that old saying? Always leave them wanting more. Tell them enough about yourself, but don't give everything away. Save something for the first contact, for the first email, the first phone call and the first date. Don't make your profile too long."
