>>918791>>918753i'll be brutally honest with you - this whole concept and plan is an absolutely garbage idea
>I'm thinking about getting a self serve ad for this.dating apps/sites are already considered one of the top forms of date advertising because the advertisers and audience are one and the same
going outside that niche means you won't be met with that level of welcome, assuming any welcome at all
as for your diy dating profile page, here's how it might come off to some people:
>Various dating sites such as OKCupid and Plenty of Fish have given me bad matches"my being is so incredibly irregular that i've found it to be unmatched as far as my attempts at online dating are concerned"
>I'm so good with web development"so good that i made this website that looks like it came out of the 90s"
>Plus, many of these sites require you to pay "i'm either a cheap-ass, financially deficient, or both"
>and give you a subpar service"i can totally do a better job myself than using dating services built by multi-million dollar tech companies"
>So that's how I look. I don't want to show my undistorted picture here for privacy reasons."never mind the saying that a picture can paint a thousand words, you should put the same level of trust in my ability to judge and describe my appearance as i do in my web development skills"
if you do wish to continue looking on the internet, i sincerely urge you resume using those online apps/sites
otherwise, there's the offline world
