Secret Sauce 2:Tinder Score Points
In our article, we mentioned that Tinder assigns an attractiveness value to its users. Tinder refers to this value as a "score" within the company. The score is a rating system that has been used in also search engines for years.
The score is not just an indication of how attractive a Tinder user is, but rather how desirable they are. It is calculated through a complex algorithm that takes into account various data, similar to chess, but fundamentally, it is a voting system. The value of this score is influenced not only by the percentage of people who like you when they see your profile but also by the scores of those who like you. For example, in chess, when a player with a low score defeats a player with a high score, there is a significant increase in the low-rated player's score. On the other hand, if the same low-rated player defeats another low-rated player, the contribution is minimal.
In other words, getting liked by a very attractive woman has a greater impact on your score than getting liked by dozens of less attractive women. In this sense, each right swipe is a vote, but not all votes carry equal weight.
So, what is the function of this score? Simple. When a woman opens Tinder, the profiles shown to her are arranged based on this score. Being towards the back in the long list of an attractive woman probably means she will never see you.
To increase this score, first, you need to have a good Tinder profile photo. Second, learn how to use Tinder. Although not certain, we predict that the following things may also help increase your score:
Don't right-swipe everyone too quickly. Some men think this will increase their chances, but it likely has three drawbacks. Firstly, it may signal desperation, which could be a factor in the algorithm. Secondly, there are rumors that Tinder marks such accounts as potential bots and lowers their scores, which is not unreasonable. Swiping right on women who are a 100% match will likely turn you into a rookie chess player constantly losing to world champions. It will lower your score. Aim for a right swipe rate between 40% and 60%.
Can you message after matching? Improve your messaging game, as it is said to affect the score.
Not messaging after matching may have a negative impact on your score.
