I've never done the whole online dating thing, so maybe I'm not the best to respond, but here's what I'd look for if I did:

- clear writing style. Typos are ok, but internet speak is not
- a photograph with good lighting that shows a smile or shares a bit of their personality
- a carefully constructed profile that shows basic professional and personal interests, enough that I feel I could work out a decent conversation with the person
- a short message that may reference something from my profile, but not enough to appear as a stalker
