1. Sign up for a Badoo account. Open a browser, type “www.badoo.com” into the search bar, and once the Badoo home page is up, hit “Join Badoo” on the top right corner of the page. You will be redirected to Badoo’s sign-up page.

Once on the sign-up page, enter your name, birthday, city, gender, and email address into the corresponding text fields. You will also be asked to state your reason for being on Badoo. Just click on the tab right next to “I’m here to,” and choose an answer from the drop-down menu. Once done, hit “Sign up” at the bottom of the page.

2. Follow the steps outlined by Badoo. Once you’re in, add or edit the required information step-by-step to set up your profile.

3. Upload a profile picture. People want to put a face to the person they’re talking to, so add a profile image on the “Add photos of you” screen. You can either upload an existing photo from your computer or take a brand-new webcam picture of you.

Another option is to import an existing photo from your other social media accounts such as Facebook, Instagram or Photobucket.

4. Include a photo description. Moreover, you can add a description to your uploaded photo so people can get a sense early on of what kind of person you are (serious, funny, casual, intellectual, and so on).

Hit the “Finish” button at the bottom of the screen to continue with the process.

5. Confirm your email address. You will see a message from Badoo prompting you to check your email to complete your registration. Log into your email account, open the email message from Badoo, and click on the “Complete my registration” confirmation link.

You will be redirected back to your Badoo account home page.
