I don't think red panda meant your original "hello", but when you already start talking to a person you constantly call and email and text even if they don't reply. It's wise to start slow and let them show you that they are interested.

Also unless you actually meet them in real life and go on at least few dates it's not wise to treat it as a relationship, having all wrapped up in them, flirting and worrying how much he likes you etc etc it leads to unnecessary heart breaks before you even met them!

Conversations prior to meeting IMHO and experience should focus on finding out if you have things in common and what type of people they are, not about how much he likes you or wants to be with you. That's too much pressure.

I honestly wouldn't like a message " hey would you like to talk". It sounds like something you'd send to anybody, copy and paste. How about you send message based on what they post in their profile like about their hobby or a job, then it's more personal and they are more compelled to reply.

Something like hello nice to meet you, I see that you like basket weaving, I love baskets but never tried to weave one, I am really interested what type of weaving do you do? It sounds like an awesome hobby etc you might get more responses
