It would be handy if you could search for keywords in profiles as part of the search function

I assume they mean a general search which shows profiles which contain a certain key-word.

They never said they didn’t want to read profiles. But if you could search keywords then it would bring profiles up that your more of a match to.

So they work kind of like hashtags? I guess a good way to do this would be to add to the ‘interests’ box on the profiles because you can search by these. Perhaps the site could upgrade this so you could add in more categories?

You can use google to do full text searches (at least those profiles who havn't excluded themselves from search results) by searching like:

site:fabswingers.com/profile "north west" "hotel"

This will find all profiles in the North West with keyword "hotel" in them. You can narrow it down more like:

site:fabswingers.com/profile "north west" "couple" "full swap"

Just add extra terms in ""'s to narrow down further

Thank you I we will try that, I suspect most will have profiles excluded from Google though
