One of the first things that I had to do after registering for RomanceSecreto was
to fill out my profile. While it is not necessary to enter in
any additional information more than the very basic information required
to register, the site recommends very strongly that each user write a
description about themselves and place photos on their profile. It seems
logical that if I want to maximize the results from my efforts, that it
is a good idea to create a good impression of myself through my
profile. It also seems that profiles that are more complete show up
higher in the search results.
So,
I have entered in a two paragraph description of myself, including my
situation, what I am looking for, how I feel, etc. (very similar to what
I wrote in the last blog). I have also placed some public photos with
my face blurred and some photos of trees and other stuff that I find interesting, as well as some private photos
in which my face is visible, but only to people that I authorize to
view my private photos.
As
a free user of RomanceSecreto.com, I am allowed to send messages to two
new people per day (people that I have already sent messages to don't
count in this limit), as well as to invite up to 5 people to be "chat
friends" (these are people that you can chat with one-on-one using the
RomanceSecreto chat functionality - similar to Facebook chat), as well
as to send as many free winks and kisses to as many people as I like.
The site claims that the limits on the number of messages per day are in
place to prevent Spam messages from being sent, but I suspect that it
is just a ploy to get people to move up to a VIP registration after
testing out the site. In addition to the above forms
of contacting people, there are also free group chats available, that
usually have between 10 and 20 people joined in each group, and around
five to 10 people actively chatting (in Spanish generally - my Spanish is quite good) at any given
time. In the chat groups if you click on the username of each person,
you will be shown their profile - which is a great way of seeing each
person that you are talking with.
One
interesting aspect of RomanceSecreto is that people can mark their
photos as "private" which means that it is necessary to request a key
from that person in order to see the pictures that they have marked as
private. How do I ask for a key? -- I have to send them a message, talk
to them in a private chat, or ask them in a group chat - and literally
say to them "hey, can you send me your key?". If they agree, then they
can then view my profile and click on a key symbol (thereby giving me a
key), which means that the next time that I view their profile, I will
automatically be shown their private photos.
I
have now sent messages to two different women, whom appeared that I
might have a mutual attraction, and I am now waiting for responses ....
the adventure begins.
