November 2, 2026

Wondering why your Match profile isn't getting the attention it used to?

I'm talking with Alexis Ferraro, who's spent more than 20 years inside Match, about the profile choices and habits that can affect your results. I've run workshops with Match, and I have questions for her, including a few things we don't agree on.

📈 That first burst of attention: why does it fade, and what can you do about it?

💡 When the conversations pile up, is it time to hide your profile?
