Photos are hugely important when it comes to dating apps

The world's most-swiped man on Tinder has revealed where men are going wrong with their pictures.

We all know that photos are hugely important on dating apps. There's no point in uploading several group shots, sunglasses on every picture or photos that are a decade old.

And don't even get us started on a photo of you holding a fish.

Now, a man who is clearly an expert on the matter (he's the most swiped guy on Tinder) has issued some pointers that everyone can take note of.

Speaking on the Take A Seat podcast, Stefan Pierre revealed a great tip for meeting someone with similar interests.

"If you're in to horse riding or go karting, put a picture up of you go karting and you'll likely match someone with the same interest as you," he explained.

"You are putting out there what people want you to see."

Another man who is one of the most swiped on Tinder also shed some light on how he boosts his matches.

Speaking on Reddit, he explained: "I think it's a mixture of everything, but having photos that portray a story and a bio that's informative with a clear 'call to action' (reason why someone should match and speak to me)."

He also suggests making sure your profile is actually complete, with links to your social media channels, and to switch on 'recently active' so that other Tinder users will see that you've been online and are more likely to swipe right knowing that you'll be around to have a conversation.

So what other kind of photos can you use?

According to a recent study, men who have dogs in their pictures for online dating apps are perceived to be more attractive.

Research in Spain collated data from 300 female university students and found that women feel more at ease with men with dogs in their pictures, according to the Mirror.

However, the size of the animal also made a difference when swiping right or left.

Now, most of us love dogs, but there's more to it than that.

After showing countless pictures, scientists found that men with smaller dogs were perceived to be ‘less threatening and intimidating'.

One of the researchers said: "The current study has shown that the small-sized dog prompts more positive emotional reactivity and higher levels of safety than the medium-sized dog in most emotional contexts, pointing out that emotional and safety benefits from dog presence might also be related to size.”

They added: "We selected two unpopular, medium-and small-sized adult dogs (Portuguese podengo-like mixed-breed dog and wire-haired dachshund, respectively) to examine whether the positive dog effect was due to dog presence itself or dog specificity."
