How to stand out?

How can I stand out on Fab if I don’t like sending graphic pictures and sending generic messages, I understand sending personal messages should get attention, but in my experience they don’t tend to, so what is the secret?

Any advice would be really appreciated, as would the secret sauce

I don’t know many people who like graphic pictures with early stage messages. Just be yourself and you’ll eventually find likeminded folks who are interested in you

You should rap more now than you do.

Always helps me - it might help you.

And when you've gained your shaggin' crew

There'll be no need to say boo hoo.

I automatically delete all messages from a silhouette profile. I don't imagine I'm alone in that.

Did I have to say “Simon Says” before I get profile advice?

Any advice will do either general or profile, I am hoping for sage wisdom.

Is that a bad start? What is acceptable whilst also being discreet?

You can if its relevant to the question asked by an OP, which in this case it would be.

You don't stand out necessarily via the messages and photos you send, you stand out by how you construct your profile. Like any advertising you want to do the best job possible to appeal to your target market.

But it has to be real and about you, not cobbled together based on feedback of others.

Target only the ones who fit what you are looking for and you fit their criteria. This should be common sense but from most of my messages men think they can talk me around. They can't.

OP

What makes you message someone? I’m going to bet it’s a combination of both their profile bio and their photos.

For attraction to be reciprocal you need to offer the same back. I’m not suggesting you put your face in your public gallery but for the majority of people they won’t recognise a tasteful teasing body shot, or some nice clothed pics from the neck down with a blank wall behind you.

A message from silhouette profile is generally going to end up being deleted without even being read, especially if there are no public photos.

Your bio also doesn’t really tell me much. It doesn’t tell me what you’re looking for or what you bring to the table. It’s generic, boring and frankly stale.

I understand you value discretion, and if photos and filling in your bio about yourself are hard limits I think you’re going to struggle here.

I think a profile picture is a must for a lot of people to even open a message.

Also, a selection of pictures for people to see a bit about you would help too. They don’t need to be graphic or of your face. Tasteful pictures can work wonders.

Thanks for the pointers, any good examples of profiles that stand out?

OP my suggestion is that you be you. The best profiles reflect the person they are portraying. There is no right or wrong but in my experience you do need to make sure that you are writing your profile for the person who is reading it and not the person who is writing it.

I don’t think you need to stand out to be successful on fab you just need to have a profile that attracts your kind of people.

I think the main photo is a big one because it’s the first thing people see.

I get what you’re saying, but personally, I think you need to be really confident & authentic and write what you want to write , not what you think somebody might want to hear. But that’s just my opinion I’m drawn to very authentic personal profiles and put off when I senses any kind of formula or mask.

OP, take this ⬆️ advice to heed, print it off and stick it on your fridge using a magnet. That's the best advice.

There’s no way to make a message stand out but there are ways to make your profile appear engaging should your message ever prompt a visit.

First bit of advice is don’t be a silhouette.

Second piece - your pictures don’t have to be explicit

The best chance of getting a reply op, is by making your profile the best it can be.

As most of us look at that before decide to reply or delete.

The lack of any pics will be reducing your chances, I delete anything from a silhouette.

Even if they attach a pic in a message, it will often get lost, as I don't always look, just in case it's a it's a pic I don't want to see.

Also as said above, pics don't have to be graphic in nature either.

By all means have a browse of the profiles on this thread but as wellhung says be you. Please be unapologetically, unreservedly you. You want people attracted to the real you not some copied affair from someone else.

My final piece of advice is if your best mate was writing your profile as your wingman…. What would they say?

If there was a way to stand out, we would all be doing it. The reality is, if people are browsing profiles they will click on the thumbnail they find attractive
