7 dos & don'ts of online dating

01

Faces, bodies, status and humour are all important in internet dating, but the biggest success factor of all could be your name.

So say scientists who found that people whose online name began with a letter in the top half of the alphabet — A to M — get the most "looks" from others.

"Several factors make a difference when looking for love in a digital setting," said Khalid Khan, a professor at Queen Mary University of London.

"Starting with a screen name with a letter in the top half of the alphabet is surprisingly important — because several measures of success, such as educational attainment and income, are linked to names higher up the alphabet.

Khan and Sameer Chaudhry at Barts and the London School of Medicine sought objective data on how people conveyed their attractiveness on dating sites, and whether others responded to it. They trawled through 3,938 studies into online dating, published in psychology, sociology and behavioural science journals.

The numbers were crunched, resulting in what could be termed a Statisticians' Guide to Online Courtship.

Here are 7 dos & don'ts of online dating based on their findings.
