Weak profile - Low ELO score
The MAIN reason is often that your profile is too cheap. I see you complaining already but I stop you already: too cheap means you simply have not put in the work to get a good one.
Trust me, I've been there.
Getting a solid profile, with a good ELO score is mostly hard work!
But please do me a favor: don't waste your money on boosts until you already have genuine good results! Don't complain to Tinder either as they do not care!
Small population around you
If you leave in a super small area, your profile will be shown to people whatever happens. No use to buy boosts, or even Tinder Gold in that matter, like I mentioned last week!
The number of people is quite a good key of success on Tinder though.. But that is another story.
When you should not use a boost
Launching a boost on an early Monday morning is likely to be disappointing! Think about the attendance schedule we mentioned earlier!
Bonus: some range of results
When do you know that your boost works well? No one shares metrics, I will!
To give you an idea of what works and what does not, here is a range of results I had in the past. With an average, not optimized profile, without even paying a subscription, I would get 15 average quality likes during a boost. Not great heh! On the other hand, after carefully working on my profile, resetting it correctly, with platinum subscription activated, I toped at 150 likes in half an hour. Now we are talking!
This level is obviously the super high end of the spectrum.
With a good profile, you can expect something in the 50-80 likes during a boost.
