Should i set myself up on internet dating?

My father and sister came to me and suggested that i give it a go. i am 22, british male and have been single a while now. thing is, i am not sure about it. i always considered internet dating to be a desperate measure, a last resort if u will. my opinion is the only people who apply r those who have little to nothing to offer (i apolagise if i insult somebody with these words). i probably have nothing myself to offer any young ladies, but i am not sure if i want throw in the towel and admit that.
Answer
