Guys, do you really want to know that attracts women online? The answer is money and confidence - in that order. Usually, when a man meets a woman in person, it's confidence that attracts the woman first. But online, a woman really can't see your "confidence." The only thing she sees is your picture and what you write about yourself. But what if you don't have money, or confidence? I'll show you what attracts women online without your having to have money. I'll also show you how to let your confidence jump out from your computer screen.

The Right Photograph

First things first. In a perfect world, looks don't matter. Too bad we don't live in a perfect world though. Unfortunately, looks do matter - especially online. The first thing that attracts a woman online is your looks. You don't have to look like Luke Perry, Denzel Washington, or any other star. But you do have to have a well-groomed picture up. It's worth it to go to a make-up artist (yes, men go to make-up artists too) and a professional photographer to take your picture. Not only will they be able to touch up your picture, but they always do your hair and make up for you so that you look your absolute best!

Embellish Your Profile

What attracts women online and offline are confidence. Write your ad in a way that says to the world, you are someone special and that any woman would be lucky to go out with you. Now of course, this is not what you actually write. The biggest mistake I see men do online is downplay their talents, abilities, and accomplishments. So instead of saying, "I'm somewhat of a good cook," say, "I can give Emeril Lagasse a run for his money when it comes to cooking."

Also, talk about your accomplishments with pride, but without being boastful. If you graduated summa cum-laude in college, put that in your profile. If you belonged to a fraternity in college, definitely put that in! This makes a woman sense your confidence. Now don't get me wrong, don't say you're a great cook if you can't even boil an egg or even fry one. I'm just saying, if you're good at something, play it up! This is what attracts women online.

Ask Her Out Immediately

A sure sign of self-confidence is asking a woman out immediately. When you go back and forth with emails, it shows that you're not sure that you want to go out with her, or it can be interpreted that you lack the confidence to ask her out. Ask her for her phone number so that you can set up a date with her by the 3rd email. This kind of aggressiveness (or assertiveness) shows a woman that you are confident and not afraid of rejection. These are the three most important actions a man can take in attracting women online.
