How do I get more responses to my personal profile?

There are two big factors that influence how many replies or messages you will get. 

  1. Complete Profile with UNIQUE and Original Content. You need to fill every detail in your profile but more importantly, you need to actually invest some time in writing a detailed about me section as well as proofread it and refine it regularly. You also need to put some time and thought into the section that shares what you are looking for and makes sure that too is well written. Try to be unique and avoid cliches. 

  2. To be successful with online dating you should have recent and clear photos; the more the better. Photos that show you are participating in activities where you are on the go tend to perform better such as at events, playing sports, or doing some sort of activity that you actually enjoy. Photos such as these tend to get many more responses.

How many messages can I send per day?

Users are limited to 50 messages per day to prevent misuse or abuse of Free.Date. After reaching that threshold you may get a message on the screen that states: Please return tomorrow and do it all over again :-). We are happy to see you are ambitious to meet others but we just have to do our best to protect other members and frequently spammers and scammers display such mass email patterns so we have to set a reasonable per day message limit.
