Are you lucky in love? Yes, this is our series all about dating in Britain today. This time we’re looking at online dating. It used to be taboo 1, but now millions of people are looking for love on the internet. I think one of the reasons we’ve seen that growth is broadband. Many more people have broadband at home; many more people are using broadband at home. Another thing is social networking. People are used to chatting about their offline lives online. They are used to organizing things online. It’s not such an unusual place to do it as it may have been five or ten years ago. That was Nick Lisher from the dating site mysinglefriend.com. He mentions two reasons why online dating is growing in popularity: broadband and social networking. The building block of any dating website is obviously the registration 2 process and creating your profile. The secret to that is making sure you have a good picture, making sure you are honest about yourself. Then any dating website will have some kind of mechanism 3 by which you can contact that person.
