Photo first if I am honest.....unless it’s someone interesting on blogs and forums who intrigues me.
Then it’s their personal description and what kind of partner they want. To many demands and conditions is a turn off. ‘ he must do this, he must not do that, I don’t tolerate this and that, blah blah..... Bye bye
I look at the profile not so much for what they say (though that's important too) but for how well ideas are expressed. Poorly written sentences with grammatical errors turn me off.

galrads: If no income is listed, then I might look at their ‘Marital Status.’ Don’t want to mess with any married or separated types on a singles dating site.
...or type that doesn't waist time to offer some fun or stright away seeking WhatsApp and other communication. That's like complite stranger knocking on your door pushing for entry.
Since I very rarely "search" profiles (since my FIRST days on this site), about the only way I'll LOOK at a person's profile, is if I happen to spot a picture "interesting" to ME (for SOME reason, usually - but NOT ALWAYS - of a woman that's "attractive", to ME), when I log on, and they show us all the "whose online" profile pictures. So it's the photo that gets me TO the profile, to read it. But I DO read the ENTIRE profile, BEFORE I'll message somebody. And, since I AM a fun-loving, IRREVERENT type of person, in REAL life, I'm MUCH MORE likely to message somebody that "sees" the profiles a NECESSARY absurdity, and thus, ISN'T particularly "serious" (I am kind, caring, honest, and an ALL AROUND "perfect" person that you DON'T deserve!) about it, than I am those that DON'T "see" them as SORTA "ridiculous" (In that NOBODY IS very "good" as seeing themselves "HONESTLY", as OTHER people "see" them, anyway!), and treat them "lightly". I'm MORE likely to look at the profile of a person that attracts my attention by a comment on these forums. But I've already checked out the profiles of those women that participate in these forums, whose posts have "intrigued" me (for one reason or another), so I don't look at profiles, much, anymore.
WHEN I WAS checking out profiles, once I pulled up a profile, the FIRST thing I look for, was the "Last Online" date. (I STILL have some unanswered messages from my early days, when I hadn't realized there were a BUNCH of profiles whose owners are NOT ACTIVELY participating in this craziness!) IF the "Last Online" date is OVER 3 months old, I WON'T BOTHER even reading the profile, because attempting to contact such persons is "pointless".
IF I'm REALLY bored with all the NONSENSE you folks are posting, I MIGHT check out the NEW Members listings. But that's about the extent of my reviewing profiles.
