Online dating advice is available from many sources. Miss England 2009, Katrina Hodges took time out of her busy schedule recently to share with us some personal dating hints and tips to help you find love online. In this section she tells us if you want to be successful on a dating site you have to Be Proactive!

Online Dating Tip 1

Katrina's first dating tip is; "Don't just wait for people to find you. Get proactive and look for potential dates online. Have a look at people's profiles, see who takes your fancy and contact them to get the ball rolling. If you're a little bit too shy to send them a message, there are ice-breakers set up for you on Uniform Dating. You can just send those and wait for a message back, or if not and you're feeling a bit cheeky, a bit flirty, you could write a little message and take it from there! Why not give it a go?"

When it comes to online dating, that is some of the best advice we have come across.

Online Dating Tip 2

Katrina's next Online dating tip was "a great way to meet potential dates online is to go into the Live Chat room" as an upgraded member of Uniform Dating. Chat rooms are great ways to get your online dating experience off to a flying start because you can just sit, relax and have one-on-one conversations with potential matches or get involved in the group's general chat if you're feeling a bit shy. Miss England says, "It's great because you can gage peoples' personalities and work out whether you really click with them before agreeing to a date with them in person."

This is great advice for online dating, when you're meeting people electronically and you want to find out all about them in a short period of time.
