Anyone ever used the profile writing service? I would be interested in their impressions.

The service is very new, just available this week. I am curious about it too. It costs $99, did Eharmony do market research to determine this is something members wanted to justify the costs.

Many of the dating sites are now providing profile writing services. imo I would suggest using a 3rd party service not associated with a particular site. This way the service they provide can be used on any of dating sites and not tailored to just one..

The problem I'd have with someone using a profile writing service is they may have a tendancy to over-sell you. At some point you're going to be communicating with your match and if your finely crafted wording doesn't match your personal communication style its going to show.

Buz I agree with you 100%. If someone (like myself) is not a great writer than it can be used as a template. You can change it, so it does fit your personal communication style. Sometimes it just gets the ball rolling.
