There�s a lot of information about online dating � how to choose a dating site; how to write your profile; how to pick a photo . . .

. . . but there�s not a lot about having the right attitude. Just like any aspect of your life, online dating requires a positive attitude. Assuming the worst makes for rotten profile writing, bad picture selection and negative responses. Instead, make life easy for yourself by taking these positive steps now:

1) Sign up � stop prevaricating and browsing and actually register. It�s fun and it�s rewarding and you�ll be amazed at how easy it is. Think about what you�re like and what you want to get out of the site and then just do it!

2) Be yourself � pretending to be someone or something you�re not backfires in the end. There are thousands of people registered on dating sites � don�t make the common mistake of assuming that there�s no-one out there who will be interested in you. Just tell it as it is; lead your readers with bits of information that might encourage them to respond and sit back to see what happens.

3) A good photo counts � every profile needs a good photo to go with it. You don�t have to be a supermodel or a hunk � just a good quality, clear photograph of yourself is all it takes � and remember you can update your profile whenever you like, so stick a new photo up after your holiday or with a new haircut � it really does matter.

4) Take control � once you get some responses, don�t rush the replies. Take the time to read what�s been written carefully and write good replies. Pick and choose the ones that you want to get back to and ditch the ones you don�t. Taking control is a really positive step and dictating how you reply and how you move forward towards an actual date can give you loads of confidence and optimism.

5) Feel good! This is a great step you�re taking. In thousands of cases, it�s led to finding a partner for life or a new best friend. Don�t have really high expectations; take things as they come and enjoy every minute.
