1st email

Hi, I've been on match for about 9 months and haven't had much success. I struggle with coming up with an attention getting 1st email. Any suggestions?

By "first email" do you mean *you* are the one initiating contact, or is this a response email after someone else has already initiated contact?
Do you have photos up? This usually helps quite a bit.
Oh well okay then. I found that the emails I sent that got the most attention are the ones that mentioned specific activities I was interested in.
So many people write about things in general, such as "I like to go to concerts." Great - *which* concerts? And WHY do you like them?
Also, I found that using good writing skills increased my chances of a response as well.
And it's usually good to reply to something specific they have mentioned in their ad.
Hope this helps out a little.
