Ankit's strategy: Beyond mere swiping
Ankit attributes his success to a data-driven strategy, incorporating psychological principles and carefully curated profile elements.
The techie stressed that it's not about how you look but how you present yourself.
"I am 5'9" and probably not very handsome," he said.
His strategy involves investing in the premium version of dating apps and swiping only on those users who have already shown interest.
This way, you get a 100% match rate, while also making your profile more visible.

Ankit's strategies for maximizing matches
As per Ankit, getting 100 matches per hour is "pretty reasonable." He claimed some of his mentees get six to seven times that number.
He recommends profile pictures are key to getting matches. He suggests using images with horses instead of dogs, as they are more attractive.
Additionally, he suggests skipping generic locations and instead using pictures from different places. For example, if you're in Bengaluru, use pictures from Europe and or some other place.
Profile tips
The importance of bio and organic interactions
He advises against dark photos as they might give off the impression of poverty, whereas bright colors like red, green, and blue can indicate wealth or professionalism.
While creating a profile, Ankit suggests being creative about your profession and college but keeping the bio simple.
He also advises against artificially boosting your profile's visibility on dating apps. Rather, he recommends authentic interactions and storytelling in your profile to make it more appealing.
