Hey guys, I was requested to make a post on how I get girls on Tinder after a few of you really liked this comment I made on the topic.

T**he first thing we really need to get good at Tinder is letting go of our "In-real-life pride"** because a lot of us almost feel insulted to have to put any meaningful amount of work to understand Tinder because its supposedly "an evil app that destroys our ability to socialize or be present".

I agree to an extent but if you have the right systems in place you can really avoid the negative effects of Tinder.

In fact, Tinder is the thing I've used with the most success to convert a lot of my friends from detractors to avid practitioners of game in general. They spend more time now putting themselves out there "in the field" than they do on Tinder.

For you to reap the most benefits, you don't need to spend much time on Tinder either. Just about an hour a day.

So if you really want to understand how to get good at getting girls on Tinder, actually do your research because there are so many analytics available online that can guide you so you can raise your chances significantly. Also try to understand the context and give respect to it. Don't complain that its shallow because people really have no choice but to be shallow on Tinder because communication is severely limited. You don't have body language, you don't have tonality, you don't have eye contact and other subcommunications. You're only limited to pictures and text.

So lets talk about how to maximize the things we do have at our disposal starting with photos

Bad news guys, your alpha male eye contact & body language isn't gonna do shit in photograph form. You have to focus more on having good looking photos and photos that depict your status.

The better quality your photos and really, the better looking you are in them, the more swipes you'll get. So I would advise strongly to get photos taken by a photographer or a friend of yours that is into photography. You'll be surprised how much more good looking you will seem in a photo if the person taking the photo is really good with a camera.

Now the question in everyone's minds, do guys that have really good bodies have an advantage on Tinder? Yes and no. A topless primary photo showing off your physique has actually been shown to get the highest number of right swipes but that number goes down significantly with bad photo quality and when you are perceived to be trying to use your physique to attract swipes. The key is actually to have a photo that looks candid, stolen, or unplanned. I'm a big fitness guy so I have a pretty good body. I used to use a photo of me at the beach putting my younger brother on my shoulders in a fireman's carry while staring straight at the camera, smiling. That got a significant number of swipes but when I found out about the optimal photos for Tinder, I asked a photographer friend of mine to take shots of me shirtless while I played with a yoyo. Since I was really focused on the tricks I was trying to do, I didn't look like I was posing at all. In fact, I didn't pose at all, I just trusted my friend to get good shots, and he did. I put the best one up as my primary and that immediately got 50% more right swipes than my previous photo did.

But what if you don't have a good physique? A really close second to shirtless photos are actually photos with cute animals. In the analytics I gathered from it was only a difference of 2%. i.e. topless photos scored 90% and photos with cute animals scored 88%.

(side story: I told a guy I was coaching about this and he went and got a photo with him riding a crocodile! I don't know how many girls think a full grown croc is cute but whatever works.)

Your best bet would be dogs or cats but feel free to go exotic as long as the animals are generally perceived to be cute.

For secondary photos, showing a high value lifestyle has been shown to have a meaningful impact on right swipes as well. So photos with attractive women, photos of you leading, photos of you doing something adventurous, photos that show off how much money you make (without actually displaying cash or numbers i.e. photos of fancy cars or fancy places), etc. The same rules apply. They should be good quality photos and look like they are unplanned. By the way, the goal is not to try and fool women, chances are a lot of them will know that its staged but will still be attracted to you for it. My theory is that candid photos make you look higher status because you don't look like you're trying to much and even if logically a girl knows its staged, emotionally it will still have the effect that being high status does on her.

Photos are essentially 80% of the game on Tinder. So give this the attention it deserves. Remember, you only have the written word at your disposal other than your photos and there is no bio on earth that will get you more matches than good photos will, not to mention, girls will not be as receptive to you when you are messaging them if you don't have very good photos.

That said, lets now take a look into how to maximize what you can do with the written word on Tinder

There are two really good ways to do it.

First, you filter girls with your bio. So you can either say something like, "Only swipe right if you're down to meet up for coffee." or "Only swipe right if you can handle getting completely dominated and fucked so hard you'll be left in a quivering, orgasmic daze." depending on whether you'd want to get to know girls first or just hook up.

You'll get less matches but when you do, they'll be unlikely to be time wasters. When you open girls that match from that just proceed as if its already on. You can open with something as simple as "Give me your number." You'll know a girl didn't read your bio if she won't give you her number right away. When you text them just go straight into planning out how you two will meet.

The second option, if you don't want to filter girls out with your bio and want to cast a wider net is to just have an ordinary, funny, witty, or no bio at all and open your matches with "Truth or dare?" If she chooses truth then your question should be, "What is your mobile number?" if she chooses dare then the dare should be, "I dare you to give me your number."

That is the fastest way to get the most numbers from the most matches. And that is key. You will be competing with so many other guys on Tinder so you want to get her off Tinder as fast as you can.

Once you're texting, work towards the meet up. Its just like standard game, start out playful but then lead into qualifying her so that its like she's trying to prove something to you by going out with you.

Now, for all the guys that think dating apps are evil

The best way to handle Tinder is to disable notifications and batch.

Batching is a productivity technique wherein you group similar tasks together and do them in one sitting rather than little by little over a period of time. The best way to describe it is using laundry. You don't wash your clothes one by one after using each individual piece. You let the dirty clothes gather in the laundry basket and on a set day in your week or when they reach a critical mass, you wash all of them together.

That's how you handle Tinder. I usually check my Tinder at night and since I either use the bio that filters or the truth or dare strategy, I simply copy & paste either "Give me your number" or "Truth or dare?". Even if I have 50 matches waiting it will only take me less than 5 minutes to copy & paste to all those matches.

When that's done I start swiping. I swipe left on girls I don't like and right on ones I do until I run out of right swipes for the day. Its important that you "swipe honestly" because if you only swipe right all the time, you will become low priority and be exposed to less attractive women. Swiping can take up to an hour depending on how many attractive girls are on the cards and while I'm doing that, there will be replies coming in from the matches that I copy & pasted messages to. All I do is respond to those messages and get their numbers. The threads on my Tinder are usually only limited to two exchanges before I get girl's numbers so easy peasy.

There you have it. All your Tinder activity compressed into just one hour in your day and you can simply ignore the app for the rest of the time. Since you blocked out a time to do all your Tinder related tasks then you're doing it proactively rather than reactively so you're actually being present with Tinder.

Extra notes

There are a 2 other things that improve your results on Tinder:

I. Travel - Tinder seems to give priority to people who are new to a city so you will be put higher on the cards when the app notices your location changes. The best way to maximize this is if you have an Android phone get a GPS Spoofer app. That way you can set the location of your phone to the place you plan to travel to a few days before you go there. When you do that you will already have dates or hookups waiting for you the first day you arrive. Heck, I've had girls pick me up at the airport to go straight to their house and fuck. If you optimized everything we discussed above, doing this on top of that is a really good strategy to get free places to stay during your travels & you have the bonus of having a hot chick that loves sucking your dick living at the place you're staying and its all free!

II. Boosts - Of all the things Tinder sells in the app, the Boost is probably the only thing worth spending money on. It makes a huge difference not only in the amount of women you match with but the quality. I've gotten my hottest matches on Tinder when I used Boosts. I think Tinder coded that into the app to incentivize the use of the Boost but hey, 10 Boosts is only worth $2 so its a small price to pay.
