Your profile.

Loviz is not about having as many matches as possible, but about having the right matches. Your profile should therefore be as authentic as possible and show who you are. Therefore, don’t try to use your profile to portray a desired person to other users in order to get as many likes and matches as possible.

For example, you can show the following things about yourself on your profile: Your personality, your strengths, your interests, what you do in your free time, what is important to you, your dating goals or your pets.

Your profile should show as many facets of you as possible – for example, you with different outfits in different situations. Another tip: Instead of just describing yourself, you should show other users what you are like. For example: Instead of writing “I’m funny”, you should rather have a funny video, picture or text so that the other users realize by themselves that you are funny.

Don’t be afraid to change your video, your pictures, your profile description or your Funfacts. This is the only way you can improve your profile and personalize it even more.

Be specific.

For an individual and authentic profile, you should use specific rather than general content. This makes your profile much more interesting and you can really show who you are. This will also increase your chances of being liked by other users who are looking for someone just like you. With specific content, you also make it much easier for other users to get in touch with you and break the ice. In the following examples, we will show you what we mean by specific content:

General

• I like being outside.
• I like traveling.

Specific

• I spend every free minute hiking in the mountains, with my favorite mountain currently being Pilatus.
• I like discovering new countries and regions. Last year I traveled alone by car from Perth to Darwin.

Thanks to the introduction video, the photos, the fun facts and the profile description, Loviz gives you lots of opportunities to make your profile individual and authentic.

Your video.

Your video is the first thing other users see of you. Your video should definitely match your profile. Therefore, make sure that your video is authentic and not staged. For example, you can show off your hobby, a special object or your pet. You don’t need professional filming equipment for the video, your smartphone will do. You should pay particular attention to the following things when creating your video:

• Show your face and make sure people can see your eyes
• Record the video in a quiet place so that you can be heard clearly
• Pay attention to the light so that you are clearly visible
• Use a current video.

Below you will find some example sentences to help you create your video:

Intro

• Hi, I am […]
• Hey you, my name is […]

Main part

• I love […]
• […] is particularly important to me
• At the weekends you will find me […]
• I am […]
• In my free time […]
• I can’t be without […]
• For me, it’s all about […].
• I work as a […]

Conclusion

• I am looking for […]
• I am looking forward to […]
• If you are […] as well, we are a match
• If you are looking for […] as well, then let’s […]
• If you are […] as well, then I look forward to your Like

Do you need 1-2 ideas for your introduction video?
Then take a look at our sample videos on YouTube.
We recorded all the videos with a smartphone, so you don’t need professional camera equipment for your introduction video.

Your photos.

With your photos you can give other users further insights into your life. If possible, you should use recent photos of yourself that tell something about you and your life. For example, the photos can show the following things about you: Your hobbies, your interests, your personality, your favorite place, your special talent, your pet.

Try to use photos that show you in different situations. This will make your profile more meaningful and interesting. This will give other users a better impression of you. It is also important that the photos are authentic and not staged or overly edited. So you don’t need a professional camera, your smartphone will do. You should pay particular attention to the following things in your photos:

• Especially in your first photo, show your face and make sure your eyes are visible
• Look into the camera, especially for your first photo
• Pay attention to the light so that you are clearly visible
• If possible, do not use corporate images.

Another tip: Make sure that other users can easily recognize you in all your photos. You should avoid group photos, especially as the first picture. If you want to use a photo with another person, the focus of the photo should be on you.

Don’t forget your sense of humor.

Sure, we all just want the perfect video, the perfect photos or the perfect texts for our profile. But don’t forget the humor: it can also be a funny photo or a funny text.

Use Funfacts.

Use our Funfacts to personalize your profile. With the Funfacts, for example, you can perfectly showcase your humor, your personality or your goals.

The more individual and specific your comment or story about the Funfacts is, the easier it is for other users to break the ice.

Get feedback.

Ask a good friend for his or her opinion on your profile. This feedback and input will add great value to your profile and therefore your Loviz experience.
