Seven tips that can change your life |
 |
|
|
| 1. Write a good profile |
|
|
|
|
A well written profile expresses yourself, your expectations from your partner and your likes and dislikes. So give it your best shot - but avoid revealing prohibited info: contact details (Address, Email Id, website URLs, etc), false/misleading data, or abusive/obscene material. Ensure that you follow the terms and conditions/service agreement of Shaadi.com.
Benefits:
It's free!
You will immediately get a list of members who are looking for a person like you. We call this 'Members whose requirements you meet'.
Your profile will show up in other member's My Shaadi Panel.
Members will be able to add you to their 'favorites' folder and even express interest in you!

| 2. Write a partner profile |
|
|
|
|
Basic step number 2 is posting your partner profile. It takes only about 5 minutes to create and saves you endless hours of searching.
Benefits:
It's free!
You will immediately get a list of members who match your requirements.
Adding the partner profile will also activate the eMatchMaker™. The eMatchMaker™ is a sophisticated program, which cross matches people who are looking for each other.
Members who express interest in you will be able to see your partner profile.
Cautions:
Try not to be too strict with your requirements. For example, you may be hard pressed to find an Indian Brahmin living in Alaska. So, keep your search criteria broad.
Prioritize your requirements and select those first. (E.g.: I cannot compromise on Education and Religion but I don't mind if he/she is an inch shorter than I expected). So choose your education preference and your Religion/Caste preference as you want, but leave out the height criteria.
You might have to edit your partner profile a few times before you get it perfect.

| 3. Upload a photograph |
|
|
|
|
Site statistics show that the most viewed male and female profiles are those with photos. The number of times your profile is viewed increases almost 7 times if you attach your photo to it and you are likely to receive 10 times as many responses from other members.
Benefits:
It's free!
You are featured in the Shaadi.com Members Photo album which is THE most popular section on the site.
If you don't have a scanned or digital photo of yourself don't worry. Mail us a copy of your photograph and we will scan it, optimise it, upload it and attach it to your profile for you - ALL FREE!
Cautions:
Try to make sure that the photograph is clear and recent.
Professionally clicked photos and those taken in natural surroundings are best.
It is better to upload a photo of yourself alone rather than in a group. If in a group make sure you identify yourself clearly.

| 4. Search @ Shaadi.com frequently |
|
|
|
|
To short list your potential partner, use the Shaadi.com matrimonial search intelligently. You may be rigid about essential criteria (age, religion, etc); but keep the non-essential criteria broad and flexible. You can always narrow down your choice subsequently. Also, visit and search the site often.
Benefits:
You will have a larger number of members in your results giving you more options.
Since profiles are updated continually, you will be able to express interest in members right after they put their profiles up. |

| 5. Contact members |
|
|
|
|
Be proactive. If you want to meet your soul mate YOU have to SEARCH and SEEK and express interest in him or her. Statistics show that persons who express interest and write messages to other members find their partner almost 2.5 times faster than those who wait to receive interests!
Benefits:
You can choose and express interest in only those people who meet your requirements.
Your profile is viewed more often and you are likely to receive more responses once you actively express interest in others.
Cautions:
Make sure you shape up your complete profile, partner profile and photo to get maximum positive responses.
Do not be discouraged if you don't receive a reply or get negative replies. People have various reasons for not responding. Simply move on.
It is a good idea to check the partner profile posted by the member before expressing interest.
