How Badoo works
Before delving into the world of the world's number 1 dating portal, it is good to make a small introduction.
Badoo is a site created to meet new people, in order to have more or less lasting relationships.
Love can be born, a friendship or it is possible to know a person only for occasional acquaintances.
It is not a Social like the others and if you post your photo there will be no friends to like it.
There are some real rules but above all those of morality exist.
A dating site is not a place to vent your frustrations or show your vices explicitly.
You are banned first, and with respect to the seriousness of the offense / act / photo you can also be reported to the appropriate forces.
Everything is clarified perfectly in its Faq.
“Badoo is a social network reserved for adults. Access to Badoo (and any of its features) is therefore only allowed to users aged 18 and over (the minimum registration age is subject to variation in the event that the user is resident in a country where the age of majority is reached after the age of 18) "

Here we go!
How to sign up for Badoo
The first thing to do to become part of the portal users is to go to the Official Site.
It has an all-Spanish version, so we won't have any translation problems.
Finding out how to join Badoo is really immediate.
We can do it via Facebook (find out how to see who follows you on Facebook) Yandex, MSN etc ..or by filling in the required fields.
Once you have completed everything (or by logging in from Social) it will be sent to you an email to confirm to activate your profile.
Remember to look into Spam, in case you don't see a response from Badoo in the first twenty minutes of your operation.
After activating your profile, you can easily browse the site and take the first steps on social media to start looking for your soul mate.
How to create a Profile
To impress and get to the top right away, you need to have a complete and striking profile.
Those looking for you want to know something about you (don't leave the fields blank) but not everything (so don't write too much).
To change the settings of the Profile go up and click on the little man icon (after you insert the photo you will see your image).
Here you change the fields, with the advice we have left you before, and those that Badoo indicates to you.
At the top right you will find a score, if you have a score above 80 your profile is ready to go.
Very important to select I'm here for… And enter your location (which will allow you to be found by other users). How to use Badoo now is already simpler but let's move on.
How to search for a person on Badoo
To start looking for your soul mate press the item Meetings.
This will allow you to quickly get tips on people who have the same interests as you and you may begin to get to know.
As in other chat for meetings, when you view the profiles you can give a positive judgment (through the Heart button), an enthusiastic judgment (through the Sbandata button) or a negative judgment (through the X Button).
Another section you can use is the one dedicated to People around.
In this way you can select the geographical area, instead, you will be able to view other users close to your area with which you can start chatting. If any of these intrigue you, you can click on their photo to view their full profile and find out more details. If you want to refine your search, click on the lever symbol corresponding to the Dating item: you can customize your search more.

The voice is also present Report, in this case you will give a warning to the Badoo developers who will check the profile of the person concerned.
Credits to Badoo
Badoo can be used for free but you will be very limited in your actions. How does Badoo work without credits? Much they say quite well, others are wrong.
