How prone is your profile to dates?
STOP swiping for nothing, get data-driven feedback and a clear action plan to get more dates.
Ever wondered why your Tinder game is so flopped? Well, let's dive into some hilarious reasons behind those empty notifications!
It's a numbers game. You sit there swiping left on everyone, waiting for Mr. or Ms. Perfect to show up. Well, guess what? They're swiping past you, too. You gotta play the game to win!
It's like fishing: if your line isn't in the water, you can't catch anything. If you think one swipe a day is enough, think again. Tinder rewards activity, not picky perfection. Swipe away, or you'll probably end up sitting in the digital friend zone forever and just have female friends.
Let's get real: setting your range to 0-1 miles and 23-24 years old isn't helping. You are not Goldilocks looking for "just right." You're literally shouting, "I don't want to meet anyone!" and get fewer matches cause the female ratio will be less.
Maybe you dream of that perfect match who happens to live next door and shares your exact Spotify playlist, but life, along with Tinder, doesn't work that way. Loosen those settings, or you'll be the digital version of the person yelling, "There's no good food!" while standing in front of a buffet.
Just like other dating sites, Tinder loves active users. If you treat the app like that random gym membership you never used, it's going to treat you the same way - by hiding your profile in the shadows.
When was the last time you opened it? If you're only swiping on lonely Saturday nights, you might as well put a "Do Not Disturb" sign on your profile. Tinder rewards consistent swipers, not sporadic ghosters. Open the app and swipe a little. And maybe even send a message?
It doesn't take a rocket scientist. Here's a brutal reality of something like Tinder frowning at people who delete and create new accounts every other week, so if you've consistently been a repeat offender.
Well, you could end up stuck in some form of black hole. For explanation purposes, shadowbans are basically when Tinder looks at you and says: We are there, and we're impressed.
Think of it just like trying to repeatedly crash through the party, but nobody makes any effort to come by you. If you've noticed a strange silence lately, it might be for this reason.
Let's rip the Band-Aid off: your profile might suck. Blurry selfies, bathroom mirror shots without natural lighting, or group shots where nobody has any idea who you are? Swipe left.
Bio saying, "I like food, Netflix, and casual sex"? Swipe left some more. Tinder is about standing out, and if your profile screams "average," people scroll faster than you can say, "It's a match! ". Harsh but true. If your pictures don't pop and your bio doesn't sparkle, no one's hanging around to swipe right.

Getting shut down on Tinder happens to the best of all of us. But don't worry. Your digital love life isn't doomed. Sometimes, it just takes a little tweak in strategy and a heck of a lot less frustrating swiping.
Here's how to start turning things around with a few simple, fun, and effective tips. Let's get you swiping with confidence and laughing along the way!
Think your profile's great? It's probably not. But, well, that's what ROAST's Profile Review features are for! Let the AI or your brutally honest friend roast your profile.
Finally, some real feedback on what is working and what is not. Create a killer description with Bio Writer that piques interest. Trust us, all the girls would like a great "introduction" to you. Men with a bio get four times as many matches than those who don't.
Like on other online dating apps, your bio is your chance to shine on Tinder. So don't give that away to clichés.
First impressions mean everything, and on Tinder, it's all about the visuals.
Like other dating apps, Tinder obviously rewards selective swipers. If you're swiping right upon everyone, well, their algorithm might think you were a bot.
Be really choosy because at least that would show there's someone seriously looking into finding a person who shall be a better match-up. Plus, it is a way out of literally cringe-worthy conversations with lots of people one is quite not into.
Want to stand out? Use your Super Likes judiciously. Every Tinder member has one free Super Like each day, but with Tinder Plus and Gold, you can send more.
This is like saying, through the sea of casual swipes, "Hey, I really like you!" Use it on that one profile you can't seem to stop thinking about. It's worth it-trust us.
Sometimes, it pays to invest in love-literally. Prove that you are here now only for hook-ups. Upgraded versions of Tinder give you perks like unlimited swipes, more Super Likes, and location control.
Tinder Gold even shows you who has liked you already so that you're not wasting your time with maybes. Think of it as leveling up in the world of dating.
Tinder pays off in consistency. Log in, swipe a little, and keep the conversation flowing. Just ghosting the app for weeks on over only sends your profile to the bottom of the Tinder abyss. The more active you are, the more visible you'll be.
When all else is lost, rebuild. Deactivate your account and begin fresh with a new app download, but do not create just another profile with the same information.
New pictures, bio, energy-change it all. Most girls like it. This will give you that hard reset to that clean slate you need in order to get back in the game. Believe us, you'll get more matches soon!
Sometimes, a change in environment is all you need. Tinder has a Passport feature that allows you to swipe in other cities. Why not broaden your horizons?
You never know if the perfect match might be waiting on the other side of the globe. Bonus: It's an excellent way to make friends or find dates on your next vacation.
