So, you’ve signed up for Saino (yay!), created your profile, and started exploring the community. But now you’re wondering, how do I get more matches? How do I actually stand out?
Good news: You’re not alone, and better news, we’ve asked some of our most active and successful Saino users to share their top tips. These are the folks who consistently get great responses, meaningful matches, and spark real connections. And no, it’s not about having model-level photos or writing poetry (unless that’s your thing). It’s about being real, thoughtful, and a little strategic.
Let’s dive into what actually works:
1. Choose the Right Profile Photo (Seriously, It Matters)
Your photo is your first impression—make it count! Our top users say this one change alone can double your match rate.
Pro tips:
- Use a clear, recent photo with a genuine smile
- Avoid heavy filters or sunglasses in your main photo
- Outdoor or hobby-related pictures add personality!
Fun fact: Profiles with smiling photos get up to 70% more likes on Saino!
2. Write a Bio That Actually Says Something
Don’t leave your bio empty—or worse, write something like “Ask me.” This is your space to show your personality and spark curiosity.
What works:
- Mention your interests (travel, food, music, etc.)
- Add a fun fact or something unique about you
- Keep it light, honest, and a little playful
Example bio:
“Architect by day, poet by night. Obsessed with momo, mountains, and old-school music. Let’s talk about your favorite random hobby.”
3. Make the First Move (Yes, You Can!)
Saino isn’t about endless swiping—it’s about meaningful action. That’s why we have Make A Move, not swipe-right-and-hope.
When you find someone interesting, say something! Compliment their taste in music, comment on their hiking photo, or just send a friendly “Hey, your profile made me smile.”
The more genuine your move, the better the response.
4. Be Active, Not Passive
Top users on Saino don’t just wait around. They:
- Check the app regularly
- Respond to messages quickly (ghosting is a no-no)
- Update their profile when something changes
- Try new features like prompts or voice notes
The more active you are, the more visible you become to others on the app.
5. Use Prompts or Voice Notes (If Available)
People love getting to know your voice, your humor, or your random quirks. Prompts and voice features help you show off your personality beyond text.
Even a simple line like:
“I’m looking for someone who laughs at bad jokes and loves spontaneous momo runs.”
…can go a long way.
6. Avoid These Common Mistakes
- One-word bios or no bio at all
- Group photos (no one wants to guess who you are)
- Overused pickup lines (“Are you a magician?” Please no)
- Sending the same message to everyone
Be you. Not a copy-paste version of someone else.
7. Stay Kind, Respectful & Open-Minded
This one’s HUGE. The users who get the most matches? They’re respectful and friendly, and approach people with kindness. No pressure. No creepy messages. Just chill, open conversation with good energy.
Saino is all about real connection—and real means thoughtful, human, and a little bit brave.
Final Thoughts from the Saino Community
Getting more matches isn’t about trying to be perfect; it’s about showing up as your authentic self, putting in a little effort, and treating others the way you’d like to be treated.
Remember:
Your vibe attracts your tribe.
So be intentional, be confident, and most importantly, have fun with it!
