Barr, who noted the internet is an important part of everyone's life and so portals no longer carry the same stigma they used to.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Ten years ago, if you told someone that you met your partner online, you would often be the recipient of a shocked look or some rather prurient questions,&quot; she added.<\/p>\n<p>Not only is hooking up through the web safe, it is also an extremely efficient way of finding someone special.<\/p>\n<p>Ms Barr expressed her opinion that in ten years' time the question to new couples could be 'What site did you meet on?' as opposed to 'How did you meet?'.<\/p>\n<p>If individuals want to be successful in love through the internet, then they need a snappy profile and at least two photos &ndash; one head shot and one full body pose.<\/p>\n<p>Posted by Trevor Smith<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"ADNFCR-2867-ID-801403292-ADNFCR\"
