http://www.pboroplus.co.uk/ free with banner exchange or paid for without your own website
-
Thanks for that Paris, it's brill - if you don't mind it would be great to use on the main site when the articles are getting updated :).
The only thing I would say is that Platinum Select is a known scam site (which is why I've removed the link); although it does fall somewhere between just mindblowingly shite rip-off advertising and full-on scam, I don't think it's somewhere we should be recommending here. I'm not sure SexyIndependents has free ads either, but will have to have a look as my paid one ran out ages ago :-\.
-
Brilliant, Paris, thanks (I've not heard of half of them! :o).
For some reason, I can never get listed on UK Belles - no one ever responds to me, and my listing never appears. But there are loads of others there for me to try, so thanks again :-*
-
Amy - no probs just delete any that are not appropriate and yeah i think it would be good in the main section as well
Angela - I do a paid premier listing on uk belles - 150 every three months and i get a lot of work from there it can be hard to get listed as well
i also do paid listings on every month on
uk bells 50 s
punternet 30
punterlink 60
escortlocal 15
selectanescort 10
punting zone 27
These are ones that i have tried for when touring the northwest so probably wont renew unless im going back again
lbb 90 ( six months )
forum x 50 three month
xnorth 50 three months
wysg 50 three months
every three months i renew my adverts on escort list and oad as well
I also post every week without fail on the above websites forums even if im not in there area or on holiday (sad) ;D Lots of guys travel and will put you on there list of To do's ;D and its just reminding them that im still around
im also reasonably active on punternet forums and a few others by doing that it gets you known ( if you want that and it all helps)
another thing is to swop banner with other escorts that you know, i have a few ladies on here that i have swopped with ( it all helps) ;
-
Backpage is bringing me quite a lot of clients from the US... and it's like 5 pounds a month... I strongly reccomend it.

Maybe only for London though. I took a free trial when it was offered and hardly got any hits, never mind clients.
-
Thanks for this Paris. The more ads the better I say ;D
-
It may be worth reminding new people that Paris takes the attitude that lots of ads = lots of work, and while it works for her, that may not be what you want or can get.
That level of ad spend also means 'about' (it depends on how much you charge) one client every week is needed to pay for it, or, in other words, you'd be shagging roughly fifty men a year to pay owners of websites, at least some of whom do not put escort safety as high as they might, before you get paid anything.
I'd agree that the person behind selectanescort is lovely in many ways, but you can pay rather less for a basic template site and still get great support :)
-
I agree with what you say, in that it might not work for others, but i always work that as a rule you have to speculate to accumulate or spend some money to make money
My regular paid for adverts ( the ones that i have up regardless of if im working or not) work out at roughly 50 per week which is less than one half an hour booking and under a tenner a day so i dont think that a huge expense for the possible returns -
i did pay out a bit more in recent months as i was planning trips to leed york chester areas so did advertise on forums that are in the northwest area and i have adjusted the post to reflect that
Before i switched to working from just my website a few years ago , i use to advertise in the local papers which were a massive 80quid a week for one add in the local paper and 100 a week for an advert in Trade it. There was no where else to advertise - It was the papers or nothing and they had you over a barrel so you paid it or didnt work -
It was where all the other escorts in bristol and the southwest had to advertise
Before the sport went under it was a huge 150 a week to advertise in there and although i only used it a few time when in scotland lots of escort up there used as there only way of advertising
So i see the cost of advertising as actually being in profit compared to what i was use to paying out each week and not a loss and there was a period of six months when i spent both money on both internet and on paper advertising while i was weaning myself off the paper adverts
I agree that it might not work for others but most of them offe free listings with the exception of punternet i think so every little helps

Well I agree too, although I'm not quite as dedicated as Paris - I really can't be arsed with the punting boards and don't have the patience for Vivastreet (I do exactly the same thing separate phone-wise with Adultwork, and anyone ringing it gets a recorded message telling them to email me through the site just like it - guess what - asks them to do on my profile page). I used to only advertise in the papers and my local one alone cost me ?50-80 a week depending on how many days I was working and wanted to run it - the bigger regional one cost an arm and a leg, and I'm always slightly baffled when I read posts complaining about how expensive a Punternet ad is, for example. I also notice that the people who are often complaining about how slow/quiet it is are the ones who seem to rely heavily on Adultwork, and I don't think that's a coincidence.
I would add Eros (http://www.eros-london.com/) to the list for London folks and also for anyone planning on working in the US - it's not cheap but I've had lots of nice clients from it and like so many others, one short booking easily pays for it. I wouldn't bother with it anywhere else in the UK though. I also get lots of website hits from one called naughtytimes.co.uk (http://www.naughtytimes.co.uk/), which nobody ever seems to have heard of but is worth a mention.
-
Paris that is fantastic thank you!
Do you know of any useful papers which still do advertising? The Daily Spurt or such likes?
I need to up my advertising as have a new pad and decided to work properly rather than being the slack tart I have been for the past year or so.
-
This is brilliant! Thank you so much for this post! :) :) :)
-
I think the daily sport still operates in scotland but only 3 times a week
i used loot when i was in manchester and they have one for york as well i think its 50 a week
Paris that is fantastic thank you!

Thanks for that list Paris. 8)

Only Scotland? Pity
Mine of info as per usual Paris thank you x
It is amazing the short week I did have it in there how many of my old regs from years ago found me, funny how some will never get to grips with t'internet!
-
Thanks Paris
I think some of the rates you quoted weren't quite right, unless you got some sort of special rate because you were touring, or you have something different to me?They aren't what I pay anyway!

hi i got it off here i think though it was for the scotish daily sport and i was back in july so it may have been a trial kind of thing

Hi all
I live in London and after a long break I'm now trying to start back to work. At the moment I'm listed on Punternet (and haven't had a single call in nearly a week!) and Adultwork. Had a few enquiries from Adultwork but that's been about it.
Just wondering wheres generally good to advertise in London? I've got a website but theres that many directories out there I've no idea where to link it to! Also I don't mind paying for an ad if it will get me a booking lol.

I am sending you an e-drink Paris, thank you!! xxx
-
Great post!!! Thanks Paris... I'm just in the middle of getting my website done so I'll be joining up with all of them
ASAP!!
Can't rely on adultwork on its own ESP when you work alot touring etc
THANKYOU XXX
-
its also worth checking out the areas that you want to tour in and see where other escorts in those areas advertise check there banner links or see if you can swop banners with them
also do the google thing
put in the areas that you want to go to ie bristol followed by some keywords ie bristol escort escorts bristol black - blonde - young escort bristol ect
See what websites come up on the first 3 pages and try to get listed on those websites most people rarely check past three pages when searching for anything on google
so if i do a search for bristol escorts on google im on the first page along with punterlink viva st bristolescorts & escorts southwest to name a few and this is my own website not links to it it dose change from time to time but im generally on page 1 or 2 regardless and as i advertise on most of the sites that are listed on the front page anyway i can always be found
bristol escort ( no s ) again im on the first page
busty bristol escort first page again
southwest escorts first page again
if i put in black escort wales ( as i do tour wales then again im on the first page right at the top)
i will confess that this has taken years of bloody hard work nagging my poor webmaster to death and a lot of dedication and patience but it dose work eventually it wont happen overnight either

I have been advertising on Punterlink pretty much since day 1. My stats consistently show that I have more hits from there than anywhere else, but I'm yet to meet a client who seems to have actually booked me as a result of seeing me on there. (I know clients are often vague about this, but they do quite often say if they've seen me on Punternet).
Just wondering if anyone else experiences the same? I also find it a completely confusing site and one version seems to come up if I use plink.com and a different one for plink.co.uk.
I don't feel I'm getting the best use out of it and wondered what others thought? I don't pay for advertising on there, but wonder if I should and if so, what's the best thing to go for?
Btw, for any of the bigger girls out there it's always worth advertising on Pretty Big Escorts and BBWme as well as NewStudioB and the Bigtithut if you have a big enough cup size.
-
I think it definately depends what area you live in. For me personally almost all my traffice comes from AW but other girls get only a low percentage of clients from there. Punternet - in 6 months of advertising on there I have got precisely ONE client!! So my advert is coming down there.
I recently looked at Punterlink, I agree with a few others who say its a very confusing site. I can't even seen to search geographically for myself in Scotland (unless I'm being very dim!) so if thats the case not worth my advertising there.

I think you need to look at the traffic to your site, rather than just rely on what the guys say (though am fully aware that it's the conversion rate of hits to bookings that's important), hence my question about Punterlink.
It obviously generates a huge amount of traffic and am interested in trying to increase my conversion rate from that traffic.
On the Punternet question, if I'd had one booking in six months that I knew for a fact to be from PN then I'd carry on with it. You may have had more that you don't know about.
I get some of my most enjoyable bookings from PN and a dinner date with someone whose company I enjoy pays for a year of advertising on there and I certainly wouldn't be thinking of reducing my advertising in this economic climate.
-
Sarita just a quick note. I was just saying what WORKS for me not advocating what u should or shouldn't do. As to where my bookings.comes from I look at traffic and ask every single guy so I know that punternet only generated one booking.
Personally I'm adding to my advertising on specifically Scottish sites but getting rid of those not working for me.
-
A great post. Thank you for sharing.
However I'm a little confused ... i should post ads on certain sites only when I'm touring in that area .. or is it better to have constant ads there to see how many visits i get?
Because the sites where I posted, does not let you choose multiple cities. Also is it better to post to a website that lets you put a link to your website?
-
Hi
Just wanted to add
j-escorts.co.uk - free to advertise and post announcements mainly London
freeads.co.uk - I get 1 - 2 clients a week for a free ad.
Backpage - starts at ?1. I usually get a sponsered ad for the month and put in my touring dates i.e Wales is around ?4.50 for the month. Ads last a month. If you get a basic ad it's costs ?1 - ?2 depending what location you are.
Adultfairgound - adultwork clone but i get the occasional booking from. It's free to advertise number & website link (need banner exchange for website link)
Adultsearch.com $1.99 - haven't tried this myself, but might be worth a go.
youadults.com - another adulwork clone, but free to post your number and website - haven't had any clients as far as I know.
http://topescortbabes.com/ - new and has touring section. Just signed up so don't know how busy it is. It's free.
http://www.eros-guide.com/ - London based. But has other cities in U.K and worldwide section. Starts at $50.00 - $200
not tried it personally but am going to try a month or so and will update with results.
-
Just a quick question...which paid for advertising yields better results...Punternet or Punterlink? I'm having a major review because of the problems with AW, but I only have a limited budget for now, so I have to pick my advertising spots carefully. Btw, I'm also based in the northwest.
Also, the time and effort of those taken to share the tips posted so far is hugely appreciated!
-
I don't know what works in the Northwest. What I can say is that WHEREVER I've lived in the UK (Scotland, SW England/South Coast) Punternet never works for me. I haven't taken up paid advertising on Punterlink but I'm going to try that next.
Have you just googled 'escorts northwest' or similar to see which sites rank the highest?
-
Well, I've bitten the bullet and stuck a featured ad on Viva St. I've always avoided it before, but hey, needs must!
I'll see how it goes, but I'm expecting a lot of tw calls, so I'll be mentally tuning my bullshit antenna :)
-
Northwest you might find that little black book (manchester ect and blonde escort work better ( well they did for me especially Blonde escort for York & Leeds and you can get a free profile on it as well
Also look at
escort magazine ( free )
Free adds ( free lol )
Ad dating ( free )
-
I always use to advertise in the Ad Trader which was paper advertising in South Wales but this week is the last week as they have stopped trading so im going hot on online adverts, so thank you Paris for this, I do most already but there are a few iv missed! No more paper ad's for me so this will be interesting! x

anyone know if www. adultway.com is any good?

Yes, I think we're all pretty much agreed that the Kings Of Text Spamming are utterly and completely crap, as well as being rude and abusive. See also here (http://www.saafe.info/main/index.php?topic=14928.0).

Tell me about it! If it wasn't for my regulars I'd be screwed... Just yesterday I had THREE no shows :FF wankers.. Literally! ;)
-
Remember ladies, it takes time to get established. The first year will always be the hardest, just like a mortgage.
-
See for all these sites - do you need a credit card to pay? I just wrote a whole profile on one of them and the payment didnt go through (i have a debit card, but plenty money on it)
-
Hi ladies, has anyone used the TLC Trust (website for disabled clients) and if so do you get much traffic from it? Thanks xx
-
My understanding is that people do not get much traffic from it, but if you are willing to make adaptations for their needs, the clients can be very good individually.
The last time I looked, it was free to advertise there.
-
Thanks xw5, I like the look of it so will give it a try and see what happens!
-
All these directories did not work for me. :-X May be traffic, but no clients :FF Only Punterlink and http://www.londonukescorts.co.uk/, but the thing is that ads at Punterlink are really expensive. I can recommend allaescort.com for paris and london, did not use for other cities. :P
-
Does anyone here advertise on either
Bigtithut http://www.bigtithut.com/ or
Prettybigescorts http://www.prettybigescorts.com/?
As im just starting out I'm considering using these as well as adultwork, do a large amount of clients use these sites?
-
hi becca
I advertise on both of these but hardly get anything tbh, mayb it depends where you are? I find aw, vivastreet, adultzone and my website are where my clients come from. but everything is worth a try because what doesn't work for one may work really well for someone else!
-
Hi Becca, if you have your own paid site then you can get a free listing on both Bigtithut & Prettybigescorts, its worth sticking an ad on if its free as your not losing if you dont get any work from them.
Bigtithut also has a forum which is good for getting your name known and announcing things like tours.
-

I imagine that the number of potential clients using those sites is miniscule compared to those using adultwork etc.
However, if you fit the niche they are invaluable (as is newstudioB if you're a G cup or above).
-
However, if you fit the niche they are invaluable (as is newstudioB if you're a G cup or above).
Agreed :-) As we all know its all about Web presence. Every hit to your site gets it further up Googles rankings.So the more suitable free directories you are on the better.
-
Something to watch out for are directories that appear to have a number of well known ladies advertising on them so you think that must be a good site so you sign up for paid advertising.
My profile details and photographs have been lifted and put on such sites as naughtyreviews.com and I have never asked to be on the site and I would certainly never pay for advertising on that site.
I use Punternet, Adultwork, UKbelles, OAG, Backpage, Punterlink and list of some of the freebies directories. I also use Twitter and Facebook.
I can't seem to register at Puntingzone
-
How does one use Facebook to advertise on??????
-
Hi,
Anybody checked out the new SPD design on Punternet?
I think it's definitely a better format than the old one...but I'm not sure how easy it is to navigate?
The 'available today' function looks good and I'd be interested to see how it pans out.
Thoughts?
-
Hi everybody, I'm based in Canary Wharf London..I was wondering if anyone advertise with the Loot in London or any other newspaper?

I started to advertise via punternet 2 weeks ago and not had one enquiry yet, despite paying for a gold membership and setting up a nice profile with a link to my website.
When I put my first profile out on AW I had loads of enquiries in the first couple of days, and I continue to get regular work from this site.
I'm based in East Sussex, is it worth me continuing with them? Is there any better sites for this area? I have my own website, I just need to get it out there.

Two weeks is not long enough for Punternet, think it was 3-6 months before I had my first genuine booking from there(my and that was back when things were considered 'busy', much fewer ladies and AW was extremely quiet (2 ladies in my area, compared with 60+ now). It's a slower site than AW but once you get going I find the clients are a mixture of very genuine, lovely guys with a few greenies chucked in. I was initially disappointed that I had a lot of withheld number enquiries from Pnet, I thought Pnet users would be savvy about etiquette, but not so. I still get guys phoning me from there who don't know how to click through to my website, withhelds probably still going on but I have a withheld number blocker so I don't have to field them - I do get to see a list of blocked calls each day so have a good idea of the type I'm missing.

Hello all! I am professional escort girl. You can have a look in my website. I am intersting to make tours worldwide but i cant find yet any website which can provide that. The only which i found was Escortsday.com and i made very easy profile there and made tour in Greece but i had not so many bookings as i was expecting.
Why do you think so?
Any other recommendation? How can i find e-mails with clients list so i can newsletter to them?
Thanks in Advace! :)

Does anyone knows how to appear in a google???
Time Patience and Money ;D
No seriously if you have a website then having it well written with lots of well written words in that are relative to wear you want to be found I cant take credit for this because I'm didn't do my own website
Ie on my main website i constantly have words like bristol escort ebony escort bristol ebony escort bath ebony escort exeter blah blah and various words that are similar same for when i blog i always use words like bristol escort blah blah is on her way to xx
I also advertise myself on site that are on the first three pages of google /search engines ( who look further than page 3 on google ) and that means that generally i can be found on most of the relevant escort sites from this in the relevant areas

Hi all, found this thread really helpful but I must be missing something simple, feel like a bit of a dumbass here! Can someone please explain what I need to do?
Northern Escort Guide - completed a profile on here and sent a payment but it still says 'inactive' as my profile status and I can't see how to make it active...
Escort England - again, I made a profile, it's not showing and don't know why... received a text from the site saying 'please let me know when you would like to activate your profile on www.escort...' I tried texting back but had no response :-\
Thanks :)
-
I'm trying to get listed on UK-Belles but the email link isn't working for me does anyone know the email address?
Just being extra cautious as I'm trying to send my pictures in the email, thanks
-
Thanks Paris!! It is really useful to me :)
However I have decided some months ago travelling to other european countries and now I'm in Spain. So I think it will be a good idea adding other sites for independents as me and some agencies which have helped me promoting in Barcelona. So, if there is someone like me I hope being helpfull to them!
http://www. escortintime.com/ - also in other european cities
[removed - please don't post agency links here]
Thank youu XXX

I think it would be a good idea to have a list of good websites to advertise as I am also wondering the same thing!
I am on adult work but that's about it at the moment.
There is back-page and adult zone too but I am sure there are bigger and better places to advertise but its hard to know the big ones!
-
I think for London AW is the best site, particularly once you have a few good reviews. Good pictures are important, too.
-
there is a sticky /comprehensive list on here called where to advertise but its for the whole of the uk i did it ages ago and other have added to it since as it was a while ago
most of my work comes from adultwork backpage viva st Im going to try Ace Massage next time and see what that brings up
-
thanks for this everyone it's really helpful. P.s I got invited to one called Red Paramour but so far it doesn't seem to get me any work at all!! Melissa xx
-

What I do when I get "Invited" to join a site is do a search for it, if I can't find it on first three pages then I don't join as the chance of actually getting work from them is very slim.
-
Thanks very much, you seem to have got it all sorted! xx
-
Thanks a lot for this post. Im new here and this is just what I was looking for :)
-

Hi I've also come across Red Paramour. I wasn't sure whether to join, they seem to rank very well in google though when searching for independent escorts london
-
would somebody please please be able to PM me the contact number for the daily sport so I can advertise on there :)
thank you

I wanted to ask, as I notice you are based in Bristol, which ads other than AW, are good for that area? I want to add to my adverts but I'm not sure where to start ??? ???
-
google this: bristol escort
put your ad on at least first 2 pages of that search, most of them are free, some not

Someone recommended Cherrygirls to me, anyone know if it's any good for generating business?

Hi girls,
Any indies in Scotland use the Scotland Punter website? If so I have a quick question and would be really grateful if you'd PM me!
Thanks and kisses!

-
Great list of places to advertise!
I'm stumped with AdultWorks though. I know it's free, but the whole process isn't exactly straight forward! So I just fill out my profile, and it then goes 'live'? Am I missing something?
Also, anyone have any luck with the paid My Local Escorts site? Would appreciate some feedback.
Thanks.
-
Paris u have a wealth of knowledge .... Bloody start an agency ... I Wana work for you ! Haha
Thankyou by the way for hetel advise ... I have booked on your experience ;) xxx
-
I wasn't 100% on the site to start with (any new site always seems a bit slow) but I have gotten bookings off it already . So thought I would stick the link up here x
www.blueadults.co m
the guy who runs it is about if you need help and right now its 100% free to use . it needs to grow but all new sites do I guess :)
-
Haven't heard of it before will check it out, what are their charges like?
-
I'm sure this is an incredibly stupid question so I apologise in advance...but I'm trying to post an ad on craigslist....what section do you put an escort ad in?
I can't see it anywhere :FF
-
There isn't one
It's normally personal section then w4m or NSA raves and rants event
Dont repost the same add more than once in 3 days otherwise it will be removed or flagged
Personally I wouldn't bother not unless you want to contacted by every guy that wants free sex
Also be prepared to have your adds pulled 24/7
Best way is to find a add that's already up for a week or do and copy it
-

Fair enough, I just read a couple of girls saying they got work from it that was all.
I'll give it a miss. :)

www.blueadults.co m the charges are 0 right now , and will remain free for some time from what I have been told

The charges might be zero but for nothing, they are worse than aw

Another Adultwork clone/wannabe then. Quelle surprise ::).
I'm not quite sure why we have two (broken) links to it, either. Friend of yours then, Crystal?

There's a lot of advice on where to advertise but does anyone work in Norfolk and know where the best place is to advertise HERE?
(Don't know if this is on the correct thread!)
Thanks.

Lucie, google other established escorts in your area and see where their advertising comes up.

Thank you X

I agree Craig's list is shit although it's popular in the states and Canada and the Middle East but that's mainly because most sites are blocked in the Middle East but Craig's list isn't
-
I've found the site good .... Adultwork only keeps control coz that's where everyone goes I do like having someone who can help with my profile and it seems to show up well on google listings the fact it's free is even better
-
Hi,
Thanks ParisB for the hot tips! Seeing as they're three years old, can anyone shed any light on what's working best for them at the moment?
I'm going to invest in some more advertising!

ETA: Nevermind...used a few suggested and phone ringing off hook. Now too busy :FF
-

Don't. Just don't. I had a posting on there before aw. And it wasn't crass or anything.
You get flagged all the time. You get all the crazies. They all want free sex, time wasters only, rude and abusive. I had a guy who started threatening me, ended up at the police station to report him...

Agreed. I tried it for a day, never again. I did get one booking from it, guy was absolutely lovely ( not sure what he was doing on there lol) but I spent literally a day trawling through dick photos, and emails from guys looking for free sex. I don't know how the girls that use it do it. My ad finally got pulled on the first night and I can't say I was sorry.
Still, I tried it, it didn't work, on to the next thing!
-
Wow
I am also new to advertising as I only advertise through adultwork only.
I think this is a great help
Thank you Paris
-
WOW this is great Paris!
I hadnt even heard of half the websites you mentioned. Will definitely have look at some of them.... Currently only on Adultwork.
So many mention paper advertising.... do people still look in the paper for escorts? isnt that a little old fashioned? But maybe I'm wrong... i'm new to this ;D

Not everyone is technically inclined, or can afford the internet.
I have had a few older clients through an ad in a local adult mag who can't work computers.
-
I guess that makes sense... just didnt cross my mind. Wifi is a basic human need... comes right after sex and chocolate. ;D
Just need to remember to include the 'last generation'... hihihi So paper is the thing! ;)
-
Wow - thanks Paris!
I am a mature escort visiting Manchester for a week in the Fall. I am British / Canadian and I am visiting relatives, may as well be practical!
If it is not too much trouble, could I bother you for a recommendation for reputable agency that has a mature escort repertoire in Manchester?
Ideally one that has clients who would use her services in a good hotel (incall)?
How about advertisers you can recommend?
And a good hotel?
Thank you kindly from Toronto

Ok ive a problem ive just gotten rid of an abusive ex ive had to stop working several times because of this nut case which is very annoying as im having to delete profiles and make new ones when he finds me in doing this is iam getting s bad name as certain people think im up to no good and im also looding work. I am determined to start up again im not letting him ruin me but need to advertise somewhere other than adultwork. Anybody have any advice? I do still have twitter so i can reactivate that as hes not on twitter and only really stalks adultwork and adultway so thats a start. I just wish the idiot would leave me alone.
-
Have a look at this thread :)
-
Thanks
-
Wow thanks Paris B! Great advice!
I had been quite lazy and only really advertised on AW, have a profile on punternet but never get any queries or bookings from there.
AW has been really good for me but putting all your eggs in one basket is not great and I worry if the decide to pull my profile for whatever reason.
I'm mainly trying some of the free sites and maybe one paid.
Would also like my own website now, do you still use the same guy for design and hosting?
Amy naughty times looks interesting though only one or two people advertising in my area but having trouble registering.

Has Viva street upped its prices?
I am sure it used to be ?39.99 for 30 days with a ?19.99 option to be put at the top of the listings every 12 hours.
I've just checked on VS as I was thinking of putting an ad in but the option of putting your profile to the top twice a day is now ?29.99 so plus the ad fee thats now ?70.00 a month? :o
I don't think I'll bother.
-
They are doing a free 30 day trial.
Google it (can't find link, sorry)
Brace yourself for the endless rush of timewasters, creeps and 4am calls, though!
-
Hey girls wondered if I cud get some help on how do I advertise on punterlink it's so confusing
-
AFAIK you just need to submit the link of your website, and put a reciprocal banner ad on it to them?

Depends on where you are as they have different prices for different cities
Bristol is 29 .99 & 9.99 to repost
London is more expensive

I am really wondering if sites like Captain 69 are still worth it as looks quite dated and not very user friendly.

I am really wondering if sites like Captain 69 are still worth it as looks quite dated and not very user friendly.
Captain 69 has just had a complete re design recently. Much easier to navigate and post tours than it used to be. It's ?12.50 a month, but I use it for the touring section and posting announcements. It does have a good escorts only forum. But it's not that busy, I do get occasional client from it. But the way I see it as long as I'm having a return on investment it's worth paying for. Even if i get a few clients a year it's worth advertising with them.
I do seem to find that it works in London but not so good for other areas, however alot of agencies seem to advertise international tours there.
I'd say give it a go, you can always cancel it.
-
Got the email about Punternet ending their bronze listings today, and wondered if anyone thought it was worth paying for? I'm loathe to because of the anonymity issue (not sure how I would pay them...)
They are the source of quite a lot of traffic to my website, but I'm not sure anyone's ever actually mentioned that it's where they found me, so unsure how useful it really is?
-
I don't know , I've always paid for the Gold advert so I presume my add will be ok
I think you used to be able to pay cash into G bank account
Or just but a pre paid credit card and use that
-
What are the best sites for advertising a London tour?
-
Girls, pls can you help me with list of the web sites in London? Me really need a help cause I'm completely new in this :o
-
Well, there's parliament.uk and...
Ahem.
Do a Google search for 'London escort' (and '(description of you - blonde / Asian / busy / whatever) London escort') and see what comes up. If you can't find it that way, no one else is going to and it's certainly not worth paying to be on them.

Hi! I'm Linda an italian escort. I will come in London in the next few weeks and want to try to make incall there. I worked for many years here in Italy, in many cities.. So I would ask you, please.. Can someone tell me the best sites to put the adverts for a good business? Thanks !! Xxx linda

The number one site in the UK is Adultwork. Some girls use it exclusively. Backpage can be good - especially for London. Vivastreet will also get the phone ringing, but it is relatively expensive and some girls find the majority of callers are time-wasitng idiots.
Adultwork will probably require you to verify once you indicate that you are not British. It's an onerous process that involves scanning in your passport and sending in photos of yourself holding the passport and your AW profile ID number and sometimes even standing in front of a local landmark while holding these things.
-
Yeah, I'm not British but I am an EU citizen - they made me scan in my national ID card (passport would also work but mine was expired) and a picture of me holding up a piece of paper with the date on it. Don't think there's any way around it for non-British citizens.

Hi, I'm not British either but I am an EU citizen. Did they give you the Sweetkick email to send them all your stuff or did you use adultwork email? It seems it is a different website they use to sort out foreign applications but I'm not sure...

Er, none of that. There's a part of the site where they ask you to upload your pictures directly to the site, your verification photo and ID. Sorry I can't link, but I didn't send my documents through email, I uploaded them directly, waited a few hours and then got an email sent to the email I signed up to AW with telling me that they had been accepted and all was well.
EDIT: Quick Google search, this came up: "SweetKick Limited Seychelles is appointed as the official AdultWork.com business advisor for Eastern Europe, Italy and USA related to the webcam activity." - yeah that doesn't apply to me, I'm a western European citizen and I was trying to sign up as an escort, not webcam. So I'm not sure about your question, sorry. :/
-
Can we not have a useful thread turn into the Adultwork show folks, please? Take the nuts and bolts stuff to the relevant section (apart from anything else, we could really use another thread about AW verifcation...)
-
I think I just wasted ?16 on a one week ad for London on Backpage. I get calls in Manchester, enough to make it worthwhile, but there's no way I'm paying another ?25 to be bumped four times to the top of that mess of a page.
I then paid ?50 to feature on Vivastreet, and the phone immediately began to ring.... With idiots.
I'm sure by the end of the month I'll get that money back but thank God I use separate phones for AW and other sites.

Does anyone gets any work from website called Pleasure To Meet You (ptmu)?
I am in London and get a lot twats texting me, no real work, only joined few weeks ago.
Maybe is better for other parts of UK.

I've had a couple of emails and texts and I think one sincere-sounding phone call, but I wasn't able to take the booking for scheduling reasons.
I think it may take off someday but I am not sure if anyone is really having much success with it.

does anyone have advice on transgender-friendly places to advertise, besides adultwork?
Hiya Im not sure if it depends which area u r in but birchplace.com seems to b well known in SE england for transgender escorts.
(I just thought i posted this reply once aready but it didnt show up...so if it ends up appearing twice now somehow/ somewhere sorry hehe)
-
CN anybody tell me if punternet is a good place to advertise
-
Does anyone was using Cherrygirls website? Is it good if I charge 140?/1hr? I am not sure because there is many expensive laydies so not sure ??? I based now in Central London and this site is second after viva street when you google escort ::)
-
Has anyone else found my local escorts site has had a sharp decline in bookings?
They have supposedly revamped the site but I can see no improvement whatsoever.
It used to be good late spring/early summer but it has since dwindled to almost zilch.
-
I am looking for the input from BBW ladies who use Eros. I am thinking on investing in it, am based in London. Do you think its worth the money?

I have tried Eros a few times in the past, never one genuine booking has come from this ::)

I'm considering Captain 69 if I'll be working in London more often. Can anyone tell me what it costs (beyond the membership) and how well it works?

?12.50 a month if you want to use the touring & announcements board. I think you can list a basic profile for free though

I see... Thanks for the "novel" about the guy ;D

Did I post a link?! ???
I certainly didn't intend to. Must have accidentally pasted something. What was it?

I would recommend NOT advertising with NaughtyReviews. Aside from the fact that they used to steal escort's details for their site, they are now attempting to rebrand as a 'dating' site and refuse to allow ANY suggestion of you offering paid services. Even the words Incalls and Outcalls are banned!! I've just sent them a rather stinking rant after they pretty much removed all info from my already ridiculously sanitised profile, and they just replied to say that they are trying to stay ahead of the curve as the industry is changing (in some non-specific way) and to keep everything in Private messages, also that clients can sign up and leave/be left reviews. No one in my area at least has a single review! I will be deleting myself from there asap.

You can totally go free and it's worth it, IMO. I only signed up a week ago and I'm getting a lot of website hits from it.

I can't figure out how it works! I did put up a profile and I think I need to upload a photo to it.

Give it a day or so. I got an email saying my profile went live. If you don't get anything after a day or two, try emailing the webmaster. :)
-
I'm not sure I've ever had a booking from Captain69, and also couldn't figure out any way of editing my (free) ad. I exchanged a few emails with admin about it, and he said he would make the changes - so I'd make sure you get it right first time!
-
I wonder if it's a regional thing ( being quiet) or down to lack of advertising
Maybe some of us could say where we are /not exact city but roughly and what advertising we do
For example I'm when I'm Bristol I do adultwork,-available today , local
Search viva st , punternet & punterlink and backpage
These are generally enough to get me 2-4 bookings a day over 5 days so some days less some days more but averages out the same as long as I put in the hours as usual
When I'm touring I do the same and I only feature for Birmingham and If I was doing central London
I would feature but don't bother featuring anywhere else
If I do London /Birmingham I also repost daily on back page as well as my normal add and u do featuring as well
This works pretty well and although I'm quite lazy when I tour when I do work properly I can do 6 + bookings most of the time
I've now started doing more of the local search so Birmingham I would prob add Coventry as well
Some places are just crap though and certain advertising works better
I wouldn't work places like Birmingham, Leicester, Leeds, Coventry, London without viva st or backpage as I get a fair amount of good bookings from these in these cities sometimes up to 30 -40 percent of my work
-
I based in central London and I use backpage, viva street, Ptmu, punternet and many others free sites. I had to stop using punterlink and viva street because over two months doesn't bring me any bookings. Viva street was good for me when I've been East London but for central London just wasted my money. :FF I was wondering if I should try cherry girls site or any different advertising ??? If anyone can recommend me a good site for Central London please pm me ::)
-
I always pay just ?1 for the aw local escort search to appear in London - I'm outcall only so don't worry about the exact area. I noticed on Sunday that I hadn't had any emails or private gallery views for a few days then realised I'd forgotten to book the local escort featuring. It kicked in today and I've had a few emails so I'd say it definitely does make a difference and pays for itself.
-
I do most that Paris does. Minus punterlink & minus punternet but plus escort director UK as that is one of the top ones for Derby. & at the minute I don't have my own site. On loads of free sites can't name them all.
Last year when I wasn't advertising bar adutlwork available today and that was it, it was shit for work, barley 1 a day after I was done being a newbie, always posting in slow today. Ads work for sure I get around 1-5 bookings a day generally steady. Always on the hunt for new ads.
I'm a bit cheeky and pay for 6 different local areas on adultwork. O:) But you'll always get a few willing to travel to you if your ok explaing your not in say the town next to you to a few people who get confused. Ads take maintence and effort and money, but boy does it beat sitting around doing nothing.
-
It feels surreal posting this, and I am not sure I didn't imagine it, but I was speaking to one of the only escorts I know here and she said that she had advertised in "The Daily Sport"? Does "The Sport" advertise escorts? I seem to remember back in the day that "The Sunday Sport" sometimes had a few outlandish stories, but I wasn't aware they advertised escorts. Has anyone on here ever used them? Or able to recommend them? Thank you once again :)
-
I agree that using other directories does help. When you compare the cost of AW to other directories, they may not look like great value, but they do add up. I mostly just go with Vivastreet and Backpage, but they do help. I'm also on SelectAnEscort and PTMU because those are both free. I've added myself to Captain69 but haven't put any money into it.
One idea is to get another separate phone for when you try new directories. So many clients have no idea where they found your number that it does no good to ask them. So, put the other number on and then you'll be able to better track where business is coming from. If you are satisfied with a directory and feel it's proven itself, then you can just put your main number on it. I'm about to do that for BackPage. I still like a bit of warning when I'm about to get a call from Vivastreet, though, as those calls can be a bit unnerving and I like to brace myself. LOL
I'm going to have to email Ian and ask for advice on how to rejig my personal website to reflect that I tour a lot. It's currently very orientated to my home city.

I mostly just go with Vivastreet and Backpage, but they do help. I'm also on SelectAnEscort and PTMU because those are both free. I've added myself to Captain69 but haven't put any money into it.
One idea is to get another separate phone for when you try new directories. So many clients have no idea where they found your number that it does no good to ask them. So, put the other number on and then you'll be able to better track where business is coming from. If you are satisfied with a directory and feel it's proven itself, then you can just put your main number on it. I'm about to do that for BackPage. I still like a bit of warning when I'm about to get a call from Vivastreet, though, as those calls can be a bit unnerving and I like to brace myself. LOL
I'm going to have to email Ian and ask for advice on how to rejig my personal website to reflect that I tour a lot. It's currently very orientated to my home city.
Just add a tour page on your website and list your up and coming tours or an availability calendar stating what days/ dates and locations you are.

It feels surreal posting this, and I am not sure I didn't imagine it, but I was speaking to one of the only escorts I know here and she said that she had advertised in "The Daily Sport"? Does "The Sport" advertise escorts? I seem to remember back in the day that "The Sunday Sport" sometimes had a few outlandish stories, but I wasn't aware they advertised escorts. Has anyone on here ever used them? Or able to recommend them? Thank you once again :)
I think they always have advertised escort.
tried once and wanksville. But if your friend
is getting bookings maybe worth trying once.
-
I thought The Sport was only in Scotland anymore? I may be thinking of something else.

Another question, backpage? Good for advertising?
-
Hi Blue, welcome.. I was thinking of young
Mr David Sullivans 'Sport' newspapers.
Lol Fabs Maybe there are other look-alike
Sports papers in the country...dunno! lol :)
(Who would be buying these things?) :-\
Backpage...depends where you are located
maybe, other girls have more info.
My girlfriend now spends 45 pounds a day on Backpage-London.
Clients were very good...but not so great recently.
-

No the Sport newspaper is UK wide though like lots of outlets for advertising works better in some places than others.

Try doing a Google search for "Escorts [name of your town]" and "independent escorts in XXXX" to see what comes up. There will be agencies but there will also be directories. Where I am, back page and viva street are at the very top of the search results. That may indicate that it works where you are.

Anyone used "adultplayground"
It comes up second page on google derby escorts but it costs ?30 for 2 months and i've never heard anyone talking about that site. Anyone used it?

Second page on Google, you've never heard of it, and it costs money... I don't think I would bother, personally.

April turned out to be my best month of the year so far and now I'm away for two weeks thank god, I more than earned the break. I easily surpassed my already extremely healthy earnings total from January, which was my goal for the month.
Extra advertising was my secret this month, I don't use AW so I rely on other directories etc. and so paying for premium advertising when I thought it was going to be quiet meant I doubled my usual earnings for the month, which are already quite high. Yes I spent quite a bit on the advertising but I made it back and then some.
I intend to do that every month now so hopefully I'll never experience a dead time again, quiet I can handle... dead oh no that I cannot handle. Is this your secret too ParisB? I rarely see you complaining about it being quiet so I'm guessing you splurge on advertising when necessary too :D
Teddy bear, can I ask where you advertise and if you're based in London? I tried Backpages and vivastreet but I only seem to get timewasters from there or people who try to haggle. I don't seem to have a problem with hagglers on Aw.
Thanks.

Acemassage any good?
-
weirdly my vivastreet and backpage have gone hush hush but my local escort has saved my ass today. 2 bookings from there, I have heard girls saying it's not all that but seems to do well in my area. It's my cheapest ad as well.
-
I didn't want to drive Amy crazy by taking another thread further off topic, but last night someone (Cheesypeas?) remarked on my comment that I got more calls from Backpage and Vivastreet than from AW. She said something to the effect of hoping that AW was on it's way out. I'm not 100% sure what she meant by that, but I sort of agree that I'd like to see more viable alternatives to AW.
I resent how AW seems to have a monopoly on sexwork in the UK. I know that if I were unable to advertise there I would struggle. However, I do think that it's not really the only game in town. The thing is that it's probably the number one spot for the entire UK - each city has their own particular quirks, but AW is pretty consistent everywhere.
If AW is no longer the leader - or if it's starting to slip - I think that may be because relatively few new guys are finding it. I'm not sure how they do find it, but I think it has gotten some media coverage here and there - even the ladies on mumsnet know about it. But if you do a Google search for an escort where you are, AW is not even on the first few pages.
It *seems* as if AW is the primary site because all of the guys on the punting forums seem to rely on it for finding independents. And that makes sense as I don't think there are very many girls not on AW. But those men are not truly representative of all men who pay for sex. They are representative of the punters who like to post to forums (and nothing wrong with that! It's just that they're not actually typical.)
I think the guys who are more "seasoned punters" are perhaps sometimes a bit more jaded and want a lot of variety/fresh meat so it can be that, other than the ones who become regulars or like to know they can count on your when they can't find someone new, you may eventually start to exhaust your local market. That's why touring can be so lucrative. And I think advertising on the sites that come up high on Google can also be lucrative.
I don't know if anyone else saw them, but there were those mobile billboards in my city centre recently - the sort pulled around behind a truck - saying, basically, "find a hot girl on Vivastreet." There was a photo of some scantily clad young women and - without saying it's about escorting - telling guys that such women can be found on Vivastreet. Their profile is getting much higher and they're perhaps bringing in new punters.
One problem with both Vivastreet and Backpage is that you get less experienced punters and they often need things spelled out to them. Quite a few of them have unrealistic ideas about what services should cost. At least Vivastreet lets us put prices on, now. However, they only let us use acronyms like CIM, OWO, etc and so those need explaining, too. But I have noticed that Vivastreet is getting a bit better in terms of the clientele there bringing and I'm accepting more bookings from it.
While AW has made it almost too easy for us, we've gotten complacent and we may have to be more enterprising in our marketing. But I do think it's worth doing once you get used to it.
-
Excellent post, Fabulassie!
I agree with everything you've said. I'm very part time and really don't want much more than one booking a week during term time at uni, but now that my exams are about to finish up and I'll have a good four months of summer free, I want to make as much money as I can. 8)
So I'm going to start advertising! I'm going to try and get as many free trials etc. as I can get because I think what some directories charge is fucking ridiculous, but I'm going to try and place myself on as many on the first three pages of Google as I can.
Then there's the idea of building my own website which I can't be bothered to do right now but it s a definite end goal within the next year.
I, too, want to move away from AW because I'm sick of it's monopoly and I don't want to rely on it in case the (seemingly) inevitable happens and my profile gets deleted.
Vivastreet is the very first result for my area so I'll give it a go...
-
Hi Fabs, love what you wrote.
I agree...it's all stuff that was niggling me too. :D
-
Acemassage any good?
I've not heard of this one but if it's free to post an advert then why not!
-
Acemassage clients aren't my cup of tea.
Used them years ago. Massage parlourish.
I didn't click with that market.
Just my personal view.
But maybe other girls have fresh info.
Can't see prices on it though, it used to have lots of
different fees for a month, 6 months etc
-
Although it might not all be massage, I think the guys using it may be looking for a massage and they expect to pay less. I get requests all the time for "just a massage" and they never want to pay my regular rate. From my POV, massaging someone for 50 minutes and then rubbing them off is a lot harder than doing GFE so why would I do it for less?
The idea that anything other than penetrative sex should be cheaper bugs me but I guess it comes from the old way of working which was to charge as many extras as possible.
However, Ace Massage does appear on the first page of London google results and if you are doing mostly massage with HE then I think it would likely be pretty good.

Hi, I'm looking for other webcam and escorting sites as Adultwork seems to be a little slow at the moment. I've tried google but its a minefield so any advice welcomed

Well there's nearly a dozen pages of this thread to be getting started with, as well as the Where To Advertise article on the main site.
As far as webcamming goes, any information on cam sites will (and should) be posted in the Webcamming section :).

Anyone knows which websites are good for advertising bdsm fetish services?
Thanks

I am based in Central London. I mainly advertise on AW but after having my profile taken down for a day because a vengeful client reported my profile as I refused to see him I am looking to advertise elsewhere. I have an ad on Vivastreet which so far has got me two jobs in 2 months (pretty appalling!). I will continue to advertise there though, in case my AW profile gets taken down again. I have also tried Backpage which did generate lots of calls however most of them were looking to pay below my advertised rate (I charge 150 an hour) and were all timewasters-so basically not 1 booking from Backpage.
I was considering advertising on Punternet or Punterlink but I am worried it will attract the kind of punter I would like to avoid the most:those who are members of punter forums. I have avoided being discussed on punter forums for a while, thankfully and hate to be discussed on there even if the comments are positive. I would appreciate feedback from other escorts who advertise on Punternet and Punterlink to find out what kind of clients they get there.
I also advertised on Select an Escort for a year and did not get one booking from there. I know other escorts say that advertising in a place other than AW is a good idea but I've yet to find anywhere than generates any business for me.
A friend recommended Ace Massage and FridayAd. Does anyone in London use these ads? I did read that Cheesypeas said Ace Massage attracts Parlourish clients. I don't mind giving massages but I find doing mainly massage more tiring than having sex for an hour!

-
I based in Central London too and I also charge 150? for 1hr. I must to say Viva street was working well for me when I was in different area but doesn't work at all in Central London ??? I had acemassage before and it wasn't a lot of traffic but i had like a 2-3 clients a month from there and all of them was great. At the moment i have a punternet, my local escort, escort-directory, ptmu, ukadultzone, hallolondon, and many free sites too.
Because i working without AW i am always looking for some new sites and this time i decided to use Cherry Girls cus this site appears great on google. What you think? Does anyone of you was using cherry girls site?
-
I'm having some really really shitty days and it's properly knocking my confidence. I'm only using AW and Backpage (working in Central London). Any suggestions on what works well here?

Vivastreet will make your phone ring but it's expensive and you have to have your loins well girded to deal with the sort of calls you'll get. Lots of dross to sift through. If you won't see blacks and Asians you may not find it worth your while.
-
Thanks! I did have a look at Vivastreet and was put off by how expensive it was... and I do get VERY irked by timewasters as it is.

Cherry Girls is VERY expensive, around ?150/month, and they require you to come in to meet them in their office. They may be good, but I was very put off by the price.
-
I tried selectanescort from beginning of June, got 4 calls, 0 bookings in 17 days ... :'(
-
I so hope EI finish updating thier website soon and actually works this time as this is the second attempt. It went tits up before. When big money is paid the least they could have done is froze the ad so no days will be lost. Any one else affected by this?.
-
I logged onto Escort England today to find they have increased prices from ?10 per month to 150 credits a month. Credits cost ?100 for 125! That's a ridiculous increase that I certainly won't be paying!
-
I just received a phone call from a sister site of back page. Adult search who have given me a month free. Any one heard of this?.

How very strange, I went and had another look and it's reverted back to it's usual style. When I logged on on Friday the whole site had changed format and I was going from a bookmark so not like I'd gone to the wrong site! It's almost like they got hacked for a day!

Escort-wales is having a massive redesign so maybe escort-england is toying with the credits payment thing. Escort-england may be trying a new design/ payment system and decided to go back to the original. Who knows?

I really need more bookings but I have no idea where is best to advertise :-((
If you have some decent websites not full of looser pm me please.
Apart of aw do you know ow anywhere else?
Thanks :-*

+1, viva was a nightmare for me. F**ckers telling me they don't know what "escort" means or would I go on a date or would I want a husband?! Wtf! And since I've recently decided to see clients of my own ethnic origins only (after a year of work I had 2 aggressive Indian clients and a majority just are textbook time wasters anyway, call me racist I no longer care) I'm done with VV.
however for those who want to give it a try there was that special free trial offer, the guy in charge is Finny if I remember well. I strongly suggest a separate phone number for your VV ad though.
-
So, Punterlink and Punternet.
Does anyone have any experience of recent advertising with them?
SM
-
I stopped using Punternet when they got rid of the free bronze listings, but Punterlink is the second highest source of traffic to my website. Not often mentioned as a source by clients though, whereas AdultZone is.
-
Thanks, Kay X
-
Is it worth paying to upgrade your profile on Adultzone?
I put my profile on there last week and have had 5 views! It looks like a waste of time tbh ::)
-
This is obviously a 'dead thread' but I have my answer now after some research in my area.
I know there is a wealth of information on the forum but I have found it is very much down to the area you are in - just in case anyone else poses the question!
-
I'm pretty sure there's a glitch in the AdultZone profile views counter, at least on mine: it's still in double figures, which doesn't tally with the amount of calls I've received that mention it.
-
Kay,
I'm going to stick with VivaStreet. I'm sure it won't work in every location but you can pay to change locations and I think it will be worth it for my tour or at least another string to my bow instead of relying solely on AW.
SM
-
What are the best sites for touring escorts? I know Vivastreet you can pay to change location, and obviously it's very easy on AW. What about Punternet and Punterlink?
-
Not Punterlink as it just shows a short intro and then links to your own website. TOP's touring section isn't bad.

The Oldest Profession.
Sorry, I didn't mean Punterlink was bad, just that the site structure itself has no sort of touring aspect (AFAIK). But if you put something in your blurb about checking your website for details of your regular tours... all good.

I'm pretty sure it's the same site, although I might be wrong. As above PL do have tour listings, and they're separate from the main directory :).

Ive found when ive gone on tour ive advertised my tour dates on "selectanescort.com" and they tweeted every days that i was on tour which helped increase my advertising so they are pritty good if your on twitter too . x

Please can anyone point me in the right direction re advertising on sites that don't require you to have a website, many thanks in advance.

I think it is just trial and error finding the names out.

UK Adultzone, Select An Escort, My Local Escorts, Blonde Escorts, Vivastreet, Adultwork, Punternet, Sexy Independent Escorts and Escort England ought to get you started :).
I'd still urge anybody to get a website, though.

The chap who runs Select an Escort also builds websites, and is in the process of making me a new one. Very reasonable prices too. But you can build your own too if you have a bit of time and patince.

does anyone get any decent leads from Vivastreet?
I've had around 10 clients from there in 2 months. And with just one photo.
I've not featured my profile or anything like that, just done the basic advertising. I'm going to add more pics and feature my profile because I think it will be worth it.
You don't need to pay to show your phone number too.
Lola x
-
Thanks Lola. Hmm so 1 a week maybe? Are these solid bookings though?
They seem to have stealth marketing, as every escort website I've been on seems to have embedded links to them on their first page, unless its an adserver thing on my PC causing it ???
AW isn't even on page 1 on google for escort searches.
{The mind boggles}
-
Never noticed that with Viva Emma.
'stealth'...Like when you look for 'hamsters', every
webpage you look at afterwards has an ad for hamsters
in the the page?
But I read they stepped up advertising and had vans
and bus stops with escort promotions....and people
complained.
-
It's more on the home page of escorts/agency websites, whenever I click on any banners it take me to vivastreet adverts. A lots of agency have these dating ones on the banner ??? Yes it will churn out hamster lol if I was looking for those too. Could be google chrome causing that, I'll get my malware security on the case.
What about Aphrodite lounge? Anyone heard of this one?
-
I'm on Aphrodite Lounge. I do get the odd message, but don't think any have actually converted into a booking yet.

I've had 4 messages in 24 hours so it looks promising. Another one like Aw though where you have to have private galleries to display your phone number.

I also rccimene a site / company calked horny design I have a website with them that I use specifically for working abroad it's pay as you go dead ?20 a month easy to use and a real live( shock ) person on the phone to talk to
If you can use AW you can build a site with them

Thanks Paris x
-
So I paid for a month long as on VS but out of 4040 page views, about 50 emails, not one booking.
I updated my ad as the month went on the same as my AW profile, but even interest there has slowed right down :(
-
I used to just get emails too on viva. Mainly time wasters. Id rather pay a tenner month for a website than pay all these companies. Wouldn't surprise me if it's people in their office sending emails. The ones I get on Aphrodite seem to polite to be punters! All asking me to put my phone number up too..
-
Hi guys don't know if anyone can help but i have just come back to escorting after having about 2 years off, i notice that now you seem to need a website to advertise on most sites, is this the case now? i am on my chin strap money wise i need a site that is relatively cheap to advertise until i get on my feet again.
Many thanks in advance guys xxx.
-
Have you looked at Adultwork?
That's the main site and although there are some charges it is relatively cheap, for example ?1 a day to advertise your phone number. Other fees are only if you choose to use other features and it is free to register.
Good luck x

I'm in a similar situation to you. I compiled a list of all the free ones but my flippin' hard drive got wiped by a virus just before I backed up again..Argh. PMTU - pleasure to meet you seems to be a good one for leads & it's free. I'll start the list again & let you know.
-
Hey I can comment on PMTU - been there for around 3 months, regularly updating it and literally nothing not even an email.
Was contacted today by LondonX, supposedly the free distribituion adult magazine, in 5* hotels and nightclubs and even (!) in free newspaper boxes near tube stations. Now that is ridiculous the pic on their website showing that box looks completely photoshopped into the scenery and I can not imagine adult magazines being distributed like ES.
It costs around ?20 a week for just text, more if it's a pic so for a decent ad you'd have to pay around 120 and up to 280 a month.... Anyway the prices do not matter much at this point as this looks like a scam.
Has anyone seen LondonX magazine?

lol that's a good idea. Funily enough I haven't had any emails back either.

Hey girlies has anyone tried Friday-ad? Is it worth the ?30 (It doesn't say how long the ad will be up for though). I'm on a short 3 days tour in Maidstone , its my first day today and I haven't had a single booking :( Any tips will help please xx I advertise only on AW xx
-
I tried friday ad, good amount of enquiries, i'd say it's a lot like vivastreet clients, got to weed through a lot of undesirables to find a client. I'm east midlands area, not sure how it is for the rest of the uk
-
I tried Friday-Ad but couldn't rewrite my ad in any way to suit their policies so I ended up telling them not to bother and got a refund!
-
What is it with Backpage in USA? Over here there's the usual amount of idiots from it but it's really sinister in the USA. One case in July where a man called Neal Falls entered an escort's home and said live or die and tried to attack her but then she managed to turn his gun back onto him and kill him.
Another case in August a group of men robbed various prostitutes advertising on there and left one dead in her hotel room, Sanisha Johnson. Then Ashley Masi in a third case this year. Some from previous years too where multiple escorts were killed by one man, like James Brown case, all from BP.
I've been giving a bit of thought about a working holiday out there, first touring experience and assumed BP would be one of USA's main advertising sites so was doing some research but it seems to be the main target place for these nutters.
-
Prostitutes are killed in the UK, too. I can think of a couple of cases in the past couple of years. The US is a much bigger country and so there will be more stories.
The main difference between the two countries is that prostitution is almost entirely illegal in the US (only legal in a few Nevada brothels) so there's a higher level of secrecy around everything.

I was just reading the G uardian, remembing how terrible it is.
Then I noticed that Gumtree has ad space at the top of the
page, advertising various 'relaxing full body' massages.
Suprising lol

Gumtree is owned by ebay so doubt it will allow escort ads. Maybe people are sneakily advertising via thier massage services and not mentioning sexual services hoping guys will read between the lines.
-
Oh I didn't know who owned Gumtree.
Yes you're right Gumtree banned sexual terms
and human photos in massage section during the past year.
I was more amazed that The G.uardian allows Gumtree massage on their pages!
Seems a good source of 30-50 pound hand relief from reading client reviews.

Hi girls!
I'm looking for a bit of advice.
I know there a lot of places I can advertise; however I am a touring escort only and from what I've seen (admittedly, I haven't had an in depth look and thought I'd ask here first) the sites only cater for one location and don't offer a 'carousel' like VS.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

I find Adultwork viva St, back page and select an escort the best for touring
Pm or call me if you want a tip on getting VS a bit cheaper for advertising with touring

Slightly off topic the Guardian is a great newspaper just it has a rather aggressive edge to it.
At least it doesn't promote endless right wing propaganda.
However as has been said earlier it is rather surprising it is advertising gumtree.
I have dabbled with gumtree over the past year or two and got nowhere with it as they are so quick to remove the ad if it even so much as hints on sexual services.
Craigslist is a waste of time also.
My-local-escorts can be a great site depending upon where you live in the UK. Their moderator is absolutely excellent and so prompt in getting back he even works in the middle of the night - I can only assume he doesn't need much sleep! I don't sleep too long either and it always amazes me how quickly he responds and how efficient he is.
Vivastreet are very professional too but again that depends upon where you live. However as it is a public site there is a greater risk of getting outed as guys browse through there just for the photos and to stare at the ads without any real intention of booking and going through with it and then fabricate a booking. I know this as it has happened to me whereupon as I knew who the perpetrator was I had to swiftly remove myself. His wife looked very guilty when she bumped into me some months later but I knew they had both got together on it to show me up. How the wife didn't twig her husband must have been staring at escort pages for some time I will never know. They always say that the wives are the last to know.... Or he could have booked somebody else when he realised I was on there, hard to say.
It was after that I decided to stick to just AW and my local escorts sites.. Thos public sites carry too much inherent risk best to stick to the specialist sites if we don't wish to be outed.
-
Just had backpage contact me offering free escort advertising I told them I'm not interested BP is a total waste of time for me.

Hi Paris .I em new hire and I need help.I em erotic masseur and I don t know haw I can find the job in London .Please if you know Sam place o Sam chat like saafe but for massages please tel me .Thanks a lot sorry for me Bad english

Does anyone use Instagram to advertise and get new clients?
-
I saw some escort agencies do that....
-
I'm sure it was mentioned earlier, but PTMU has bought me a fair bit of business - when you update your status, it moves you to the top of the list and it's free and congratulates you on being moved up :o
-
Can someone tell me how long Vivastreet take to update location when you upgrade as i only stay in an area for a couple of days, but don't want to put myself on lots of directories when I don't have a main base.
-
Does anyone know what London Directories you can post on for free without a website?
They also need to allow me to change my ad and location myself, without the hassle of having to contact customer service as I will most likely be working in different areas of London.
-

If you do it in the morning normally quick or late at night it's notmally ok by 10 am next day but you can ring them with your add number and ask them to make sure it moved out of pre mod

Hi girls
someone was texting me couple of days ago saying that found my ad on website called English Escort. I never advertised myself on any other than AW. I googled and couldnt find anything like english escorts website. Does any of you know it?

Escort England i think x

Anyone bother with punternet? I heard it's dead these days..
-
When they had free ads I got a bit of traffic from it, but never bothered paying for one.
-
Hi I just wondered if sexyindependentescorts or turnonlondon.com are any good for London escorts as they come up quite high in Google searches.
-
Anyone bother with punternet? I heard it's dead these days..
I stopped using punternet when they changed thier design. New design alot harder for clients to see touring escort ads. I found my phone went dead after the design change.
-
Hi guys just got a couple of questions, I was wondering whether its work me signing up and advertising myself on other pages as well as AW does any body else do this and does it up their work if so can you give me the name of some good sites?
second question, is phone chat worth doing? do you get many calls? can you only do it via a landline?
Thanks very much guys! xxxxx
-
Think I'm going to remove my telphone off vivastreet, had 4 people grunt that they wanted a booking today asking basic questions that is the only info on the ad. Shame because their marketing makes them top of the searches but the folk it brings is timewaster or undesirables. Will keep in it for the gems that come through the ad but rare.
-

It does seem tot be a bit non user friendly on there & quite basic..

Hi everyone i just wanted to ask a simple question, I advertise on aw back page and ace massage and it's been totally dead, am I doing something wrong?
-
There is a big thread on advertising in this very section why don't you have a look there?
Edit you are posting on said thread, I suggest you read through it
-
Hi everyone i just wanted to ask a simple question, I advertise on aw back page and ace massage and it's been totally dead, am I doing something wrong?
No idea but you will find most escorts find it slow to dead in January.Take a look at the slow at the minute thread.Its always good to find other places to advertise anyway and also to update your current ads frequently with new pics etc.
-
Are Cherry girl, LEG & Eros Guide user friendly? Can you edit your ads yourself or do you need to contact administration just for basic changes? Also does any of them have a tour section?
Also are they any good for BBW's and if not which sites are good for BBW's touring London?
-
Anyone know how to do your profile on TOP? My details are all wrong & I can't find out how to contact admin. I can't upload an image either, very weird website. Using google chrome windows 7, maybe that's got something to do with it. ???
-
I've just started to try and use TOP today, too. I have a profile on there but I've done nothing with it. I have ZERO idea how you get one of their proper profiles with photos, etc. But I noticed they were tweeting a lot of profiles today so somebody is there.
-
Re. TOP, I just log in, and then there's a little grey 'Edit' box top left - click on that to update your text or images.

I'm on Aphrodite Lounge. I do get the odd message, but don't think any have actually converted into a booking yet.
I saw that you follow them on Twitter so I checked it out. But I just don't know if I can spend any more money on directories that may or may not be worthwhile. I filled out a profile but not to the point of making a private gallery. So, my phone number isn't displayed.

Yep, my AL listing is a freebie. It's strange - when I first went on there, I got maybe 2-3 emails per week, yet not one transformed into an actual booking; in fact, hardly any replied to my response (which always included my phone number and website). In the past few months, I've had absolutely nada from there.

I got a message almost immediately and replied with a link to my website. Doubt I will hear from him again.
-
I've had three messages now from Aphrodite Lounge. I replied promptly with a link to my website. Heard nothing back.
All three messages basically said, "Why don't you have a phone number?" or "I'd like to book you but I don't see a phone number for you" -something to that effect. I wonder if these are fake messages meant to make us think that we'd clearly get business if only we paid for the ability to post our number?
The truth is, if I get enough messages that eventually turn into contact via my website, I may well decide it's worth the money to show my contact info directly. I know that on AW there are plenty of girls who never show a number and still get bookings so these same guys who can be bothered to send a message should be bothered to follow up to my prompt reply.
Also curious to see if Google analytics shows any click through at all from the site. Even if they don't follow through, I think a genuine enquirer would at least want to click on a link in a message.
-
I considered Punternet but they want at least 15 a month to have a profile. Before I pay any money I like to check it out a bit more. Only FIVE other escorts within a five-mile radius of my own urban postcode. No way are guys going to that site to find an escort.
-
I've tried out My-Local-Escort. They are not ranked very high at all in my city but I tour a lot and thought they may come in handy at some point. They do tweet your profile a lot. Also, the guy who runs it seems very nice. He started talking to me on twitter about website SEO and we've emailed. He gave me some VERY good advice, for free. I'd like to see that site succeed.
Although any successful site will then have to deal with a deluge of scam artists.

I suspect all their messages are coming from them directly as a con to get us to pay to display a phone number. Think someone else said this further up too. Had no bookings from there. It's waste of time.
Punternet, i'm trying but hear it's dead these days.
My-local-escort seems to be quite good but you need to have a paid listing. I'm on the free trial & got a 2hr booking last week from it. This guy said he knew about AW but seemed to think he had to register etc to get ladies details. Some people are so clueless.
I focus on ones that come up on page 1 on google because I hardly bother to click on page 2 for anything.

I've sussed it now. It's down the bottom right, "user panel" just keep clicking around until you get the edit page at the top left. dont know who you get featured etc though.. :-\
-
I have never been asked to pay for my-local-escort. I do find o get a lot of 'not read details and you're not what I'm looking for' enquiries from there.
That's when someone isn't using their messaging system as a way to text me.
-
I have been unable to log into Adultzone to amend my profile. It says "You are logged in, which account do you want" or something like that. I've emailed them but heard nothing back.
-
Twitter is a good way of getting in touch with AdultZone if you're stuck: I even got some free credits because I told them about a logging in glitch.

OK - I'm seeing FridayAd and CrazyOz come up in searches.
Who has experience with these? Would like to know which parts of the country they work in.
-
I've been on Friday Ad and found it cack.Not so bad when it only cost ?20.I maybe got 1 a month but the price has gone up and its like Viva Street in terms of idiots calling but at least on Viva you can list your services and website etc and screen callers a bit that way on Friday Ad you can't put even rates.I'm based in Leeds.

Friday ad isn't worth it.
The only place I have had bookings from it is Crawley/Gatwick.
I wouldn't bother paying for it, it's just another expense.
I have put myself on mylocalescort subscription 9.99 per month.
Have recieved one call from it.
If you have a website then it's best to just add a directory banner to your home page and get a free advert.
-
Friday Ad certainly works on the South coast. However just like Viva street you do get huge amounts of cheapskates and time wasters. True enough you can't list your services on there ( indeed with Viva street that's a relatively new option.)
However on the South coast AW is shit in a lot of places so I do sometimes advertise on there but only when I absolutely have to. Like Viva most of them will not bother to look at your website, many are just looking for a cheap fuck.
That being said I have met some nice guys from there and have some regulars ( mainly half hour ones true enough). It depends if you're prepared to wade your way through the idiots or not.
FA till a year or so ago was ?17.99 for a basic ad, and if you renewed before the end it was free. But their prices have gone up massively, and on a regular basis.
Scotland and northern England it seems to be more Viva street. South coast and possibly parts of South East England FA
-
Did Vivastreet improved on terms of thw tw? My friend has an ad on there and shes all the time fully booked and sont have tw,- well occasionally the texters etc but overall she is very happy with it and dont bother qith aw anymore. I was wondering if anyone on here has an ad on vivastreet and how are tou finding it so far?
-
L88K - if you do a search, VivaStreet has its own thread.
-
I couldnt find it thats why i posted on here sorry :)
-
If you are new on any directory, or in any location, you will get time wasters. It does mellow out after a while.
I have had good luck with it but I don't pay to feature. I let them search for someone my age and race. I also links to my website, and quite a few will read in.
Twats stills call, but really no worse than with aw. But you may need to explain your services a bit more than on aw.

this is my main concern actually- the TW people are consistently talking about on here :). I do get tw drom aw as well, but my account is restricted now as they want me to do verification again?! Idiots. Anyway I cant stay and wait for aw, last time it took thwm over a week to verify me and i cant stay and not work until i get my profile back so i decided to post an ad on vivastreet. Until I try it i guess i cant know in advance whether it will work or not
-
I'm afraid the TWs are part and parcel of all advertising, but in my experience more so with magazine sites like Viva and Friday Ad.
-
PTMU don't seem to be approving new ads or moderatoring changes to existing ones anymore. I changed all the photos on my ad and now it's been sat there for days waiting to be approved by a moderator. There's no contact details and their Twitter account has had no activity since last year.
Should also mentioned that I asked Finny at Vivastreet if she knew of anyone who I could contact and she says their is no dedicated customer service team but their moderators review ads twice a day. She has now gone quiet since I emailed yesterday to say my ad was still unapproved.
Update: My ad was approved about 90 minutes after I posted this!
-
Finny is on holiday
PTMU is semi-abandoned. It still works but they're no longer really pushing it. I'm not sure what they every intended it to do and I'm not sure what their plans are for it.
-
A shame if that's true about PTMU, as it seems they put quite a lot of thought into designing it. I guess it's because it's free?
-
I started advertising with Aphrodite Lounge. It works similar to aw, where u have to pay for number display and available today feuture . I put the ad on saturday last week and so far i had bookings from there

Hi did anyone makde add on Crazyoz? I've tried few times and can't get any add number to log in. It's not in my email. Any help?
I did - it lasted two weeks. They sent me a reminder one week in that it was falling down the rankings, then a week later pulled it because I was offering sex for money. Er... duh? ::)
-
I did try 3 times for escorting and 1 for massage, but still have email from them with AD number
-
Hi did anyone makde add on Crazyoz? I've tried few times and can't get any add number to log in. It's not in my email. Any help?
I get quite a few leads from crazyoz but mostly seem to be TWs or people wanting me in different areas. You have to bump your advert every few days & can add your phone number in the listing. It's got good rankings on google. You have to make a note of your advert number mine's in my cookies but dont know how to get it back. Just create a new advert, you are allowed several.

Thanks. :)

9.99? minimum price plan is 35 for mylocalescorts or did you mean another website? Getting sick of these companies putting prices up when work is diminishing. Fridayad is now 30 a month, but I've not tried it yet. UKcalssifieds has higher ranking on google & it's a fiver for 6months..only had a couple of leads from it mind you.

Girls, please advise where to advertise is better when i have a tour in EU?
-
Hey guys! Newbie here!
Ive been reading through the threads about advertising and the most comprehensive ones are rather old, so I hope you don't mind if I ask you all, where do you find your ads get the most exposure and you get the most number of leads from?
I'm a new indy in London, I have a limited ad budget so trying my outmost to make good choices.
Thanks a lot!!
-
Are you doing this full time? I get enough exposure through Adultwork, and the free to advertise sites. But I only work evenings and weekends and don't want too many enquiries.
I have heard that paying for the Featured spot on AW is very good if you're in London.
-

No, well, not for now anyway, I figured I'll build up business and then assess what I should do in regards to my day job.
I am new on AW and literally had one enquiry all week. Had a few from other sites as back page and adult zone and placed ads in directories (paid and free alike).
I think I have fairly good pictures and a good price to value ratio. So not sure what I am doing wrong.
So frustrating! haha

Hey!
I am just starting as an Independent having just finished working for a no good agency. I had a call from a guy from the Sun that has offered me to be at the beginning of the ads for ?200 for the year, he said usually they charge ?2000 ??? Well... my mum always told me if something is too good to be true it usually is! Lol. Has anyone ever used the Sun and if so is it any good? x

I went to look at placing classified adverts in The Sun and didn't see anything for adult services.
He may have wanted you to paypal him the money? In which case it's a scam.

Did he give you a number to ring him back on? If so, google it. Then google the number for the advertising desk at the Sun and see if it matches.
There are a lot of scam advertisers out there.

Hi all!
I'm returning to the business after nearly a year out abroad, and will be settling in Glasgow. I've never worked anywhere outside of London, and have only used AW there which seemed to work okay for me.
What would you recommend for the Glasgow area - is albaladies still worth it? I'm planning to head down to London as well for one day, shall I bother with londonukescorts?
Thanks in advance x
-
Brilliant post Paris, thanks.
I don't think my head can get around advertising on so many sites.
I've also done a google search for London escorts and seem to be pulling up mainly Escort agencies.
Can anyone recommend the top 3 sites to use?
I'm still unsure if I should advertise in the paper.
Any upto date advice recommended.
Thanks

Where are you located? Different places have different results on various directories. For example, SelectAnEscort seems to work in some places but does absolutely nothing where I am.
If you say where you are, you may get some feedback from others who are near you on where works.
You should do a google search for things like "Independent Escort in *Yourtown*" and see what pops up. The first result will probably be Vivastreet. You may see some others like Adultzone, SelectanEscort, etc. If it's in the top ten results, give it a look. (AW will probably not even be on the first page. But they are an exception, somehow.)
For your average escort, no other directory will generate as many calls as AW. You *can* work without AW but it will require more work on your part. Those of us who have gotten complacent with the ease of AW are in for a nasty shock when forced to work without it.
I started a thread on the subject some time back and I'll go find it and link it for you.
OK - here's the thread. I didn't start it, just posted on it a lot. It's a good discussion of working without AW:

Hi All
Sorry if these questions have been asked before but I tried to search & couldn't find the answers!
Firstly, can I link my adultwork profile to my vivastreet, Friday ads & adultzone adverts?
Secondly, can you update the Friday ads location, unlimited, within the month? As a touring escort who doesn't spend more than 1 week anywhere, I don't want calls weeks after I've left.
Thanks in advance x

First question - no. You can link to your own website and to your Twitter from AW, that's all. Realistically, do you think they would be happy with you linking out to their direct competitors?
Second question - you can update the location as needed although I haven't tested how many times you can do so.
-
Bath back page is a good one if you live in the south west I live all the way in Salisbury and get clients coming to see me from bath a few times a week and clients wanting overnight bookings it costs a few quid a week and would be very good business for people in somerset I should imagine if I have quite a few calls a week when I live 45 miles away .

Any Directories for Cumbria / Northern Lancashire area?
I dislike Viva full of really "dirt cheap" escorts in the area. ::)
-
Hiya Ladies,
Ive put together a advert for viva street was going live today. My phone has not rung the whole day does anyone have any experience on VIVA and what type of clients do you get ? Im a bit wary as im so used to aw and feel slightly safe to an extent. ::)
I paid ?24 pound for this advert just to test it out ?

I got one of Viva's free trial jobbies for escorts which was about ?70's worth of advertising apparently, for a week. I got fuck all from it. But it may very well depend on your area. I'm near Brighton and Viva in my area is just not good for me.
-
High percentage of timewasters and numpties with Vivastreet but I still do pay for a weekly modest advertising slot with them and generally speaking can get at least one good client with them weekly. Personally I only pay for highlighting and new and nothing else. It still costs ?16 weekly or so which isn't cheap.
-
I use viva street for a bog standard ?7.99 add for a weeks listing, I found it didn't work for me in Gatwick but it does me very very well in Norwich and wakefield

It very much depends on your area and how much you charge as to how much you will get out of Viva. Speaking as someone who has worked in many areas and tested Viva out several times. Glasgow it works, Birmingham it works, just off the top of my head.......I have a feeling it works better in the midlands, northern England & Scotland..
For the South Coast the equivalent is Friday Ad which much the same problems as with Viva.....in my experience.....a huge amoint of TWs and cheapskates. If you can wade thro all of those you get a few decent clients!
-
I've had no bookings so far today from AW and I impulse bought a featured ad on Vivastreet (?70). I'm in Glasgow - was this a dumb move? I immediately called them to try and get them to refund the upgrade for just a regular ad but they couldn't do it.
Honestly don't know why I did it. It's a 7 day ad and I'm only working 3 :FF

I've taken out ads on impulse or cos its slow....well Viva can work for Glasgow depending on your pricing; but if you've not used it before be prepared for all the cheapskates and hagglers!

It was a dumb move when I did it (Twice too lol)
Viva Stree just doesnt do it for me. And I find when one site is quiet its more of a general thing (even though I still do panic)
PS - Its unusually quiet for me today. Yesterday were all TW! Well at least nobody has wasted my time today!
-
:( :( :( :( it does seem like I've just thrown that money away. So annoying!
It's very strange, last Friday I made a killing but today I've been completely dead. I can't figure out why?
Where else is it worth advertising in Glasgow other than AW?
-
If you are really brave try Backpage! However that's probably worse than Viva for Cheapskates etc.
Escort Scotland used to be ok but their rates have shot up the past few years.
Sometimes no matter what you do it's quiet. Me I'm frustrated as f*** I'm unable to work due to poor health...again :FF I think someone up there is trying to tell me something....like quit.
-
I think its just one of those days. I find that things come in batches. For example, yesterday was TW day!
-
I know what you mean, TLOTN. But you get up and work. A friend of mine had Big C some time ago. She had chemo and a big op. She was working whilst going through the treatment. Took 3 weeks off after the big op. She's still working.
-
Hi Paris,thats really useful info,hadnt heard of half of those xxx
-
Girls, do you have FB, Tumblr accounts to promote yourself?
-
Please explain it to me how in the name of allmighty is possible that NOBODY can tell this community an actual and sure website on wich we can get clients .
It is so much hate and envy on eachother ,that NOone can give some info that is actually working and clients call????
Newspapers?What are the name of those newspapers?Nothing nothing only a few sites from 2013 or something like this.
And what locations?Exactly.GPS exactly. :))
I read the forum and i find answers like"go anywhere you like and you feel is working for you"
"life is great'' ''you will find an answer''.and answers like this.
I'm not from england english is not my used language but i was shocked to read this kind of answers.
I'm new in this buisness but in my country i never find a thing like that.
It's shamefull that we girls can't or won''t help each other with this easy info and make our life harder like is not enough hard what we already doing.
-
I don't know what you're talking about. This thread is full of discussion of specific websites.
I admit that we can be secretive about our favourite hotels, but that's because we fear a flood of girls going in and possibly ruining it by behaving indiscretely. However, quite a few of us are very generous and share this information privately with established posters with whom we've built reciprocal relationships.
There's no site guaranteed to get anyone bookings. For most of us, adultwork and vivastreet are the busiest.
There's also a thread on here about working without adultwork that discusses alternatives in depth.
-
Well, that's us told... ::)
Personally, I'd say people like Amy, Fabs, Paris, Aussie and many others are very generous with information.
Perhaps you need to read and contribute a bit more, Suzy.
-
Wow Suzy you have quite a strong opinion for someone who posted here ONCE.
Myself I've been escorting for 2 years now and EVERYTHING I LEARNT, each And every tiny bit, I learnt it here. Either by posting and asking and getting replies from a few lovely ladies (+ Aussie xw5 of course) and or by using the search box. Or by spending hours reading through Saafe.
Or by experimenting with websites/trying one or another and learning which one works for me.
If you think that by coming here and just bitching you'll get advice then hell no :)
-
It was actually me that started this thread years ago and others have contributed to it over the years with other places to advertise to help others starting out
Now though I tend to share my info with several escorts that I trust and get along with and they do the same rarely a day goes by without speaking to some of them even my friend who lives abroad but tours the UK .We all help each other out on both a working and friendship level
But You have no idea how many times that I have given someone really really useful info on hotels / adverts and very specific stuff by pm to not even get a thank you back I'm talking stuff that in certain places like Dubai that will keep you safe
Not that I want a thank you I've always been happy to help anyone but when your giving someone information that will allow them to cut through all the crap , hassle , stay safe and earn money off the back of my own hard research and time and effort it its fucking rude not to reply back with a simple thank you It can take weeks to suss out a good tour in a foreign country it can be lucrative or shit but that would be my risk to take
When I first when to Australia years ago my 1 month tour cost me almost ?6000 I could have lost that money or made triple it was a gamble but one that paid off
But some people want all the info on hotels ,advertising , best places to go to stuff without even saying thank you .
Also if I want something I will always offer up what I have first as a show of good faith so if I want to go somewhere I will ask if the person could possibly send me some info on xxx and if they like I will send them info on abc first
The bonus is is that having worked in several different countries around the world and around the UK over the years I normally have someone from somewhere that I can ask for info from for others if needed .
So maybe if you start of by saying where your from you might find that it's a place that someone wants to tour to and they will swop info with you
In fact pretty much all the ladies that I consider to be very good friends it's strange that we all started out by contacting each other on asking for advice on where to go and tour.and built friendships from there
I stay in touch with all of them regularly by Watsapp , texts meeting up ( only today I met up with one lady in Bristol as we both had some free time for a good all gossip and coffee )
Thank you 😄
-
Paris once stopped by a couple of hotels I was curious about when she was touring the area just to let me know if they were workable. She is extremely generous with her information, especially to those who reciprocate when they can.
I will pm people with information, as well. An extremely popular hotel in London became unworkable and I have pmd girls to tell them about two viable alternatives within a five minute walk of there. One of those I learned from another member and the other from my personally having walked by it and taking time over the week to scope it out repeatedly. I don't post about them because I don't want either of these options to be overrun with indiscreet escorts... Particularly the ones who don't give back anything in information.
I would never be protective of another advertising directory, however. I resent adultwork and I would love to see viable competition catch on. So if I have success with a directory, I want to tell everyone about it and see it succeed. More escort profiles means more traffic to that site.
If you just pop on here and the only thing you ever post is a request for information, without engaging others in discussions, don't be surprised if you get a lukewarm response.
-
I could not agree more, happy to share regarding advertising or tips for websites/profile. It doesn't take much to just PM a thank you, common courtesy as far as I'm concerned. It's give and take isn't it.
Attitude is key. Paris is particular has shared so much I'm rather lost as to where on the forum Suzy found this hostile attitude ???
-
I have also been given lots of good info in regards to working and touring info over the years, LadyLust especially was a great help when I first started and I have helped others with info too over the years.
Yes sometimes there is bitchyness (those with attitudes that don't get that just because it's a public forum doesn't mean there aren't any rules to abide by), but Amy (and the other admin) soon sorts them out :-D
-
The wealth of information that ladies (and gents) like Paris, Lady Lust, Amy, Ian, Fabulassie and others has been a great help. Although I don't tour anymore (but I've not ruled it out for the future) and I don't post on here as much as I used to, I'm very grateful for the information that's put forward, as I'll never know what might come in useful.
The same goes if I have any useful bits of info. I'll happily share it.
-
Has anyone tried one of the paid options for My-Local-Escorts? If so, any good?
-
Ive tried my local escorts. Inpaid the ten pound a month option. I never got one booking off it. I had calls but not sure if they were timewasters as all my visitors were off aw or adult zone or vivastreet. So ive cancelled it x

Best place to advertise for London tours right now, ladies? I know there's some suggestions on the original post but just hoping for an update as I know it changes. Just AW doesn't seem to cut it, far too many girls in the big smoke.
-
Vivastreet, but it's expensive as fuck for London. To stand out and make the phone ring you'll need to feature as well as purchase the bumping feature. Verifying (much easier than with aw, no passport, etc required) can help. Also free to put a short intro video.
As for aw, it helps to feature your profile. Really makes a difference.
-

I'm on it. The guy who runs it is very nice and yeah i have the paid for option with my AW linked to it. I had one nice booking from it but I don't really update it so much. Not sure it's worth it therefore.

Thank you so much for the advice - I'm considering just jacking a London tour right now rather than risk paying out so much but it's dead in Manchester. Might tour somewhere else.

I like Vivastreet. I have seen a lot of people from there so does anyone use the little black book that they do, the magazine?

I got an email about the Black Book last night and thought I might give it a try. Has anyone else used it?
Gypsy what area are you? I tried the free trial on Viva but I wasn't properly tracking responses and got the impression that I didn't get anything decent from it. I'm in Sussex.

The way around this is to set up the advert in a cheaper area include everything that you want inc the touring option them once paid for move it to London.

How about this, if you want to use VS just from time to time, say 2 times a month for a week then how about setting a new ad directly in the area you're going to tour. Then delete the ad. Then when you go tour somewhere else set up a new ad. I think this simply saves you from paying for the touring option because each time you put a new ad for a new area. Though yes it does require some work.

Hey, girls.
I'm going to post my ad on vivastreet. Is there anywhere analytic how much times my ad was viewed, opened, etc.?

I'm sure they have this sort of data appear on your ad :)

I do that for the cheaper areas it works out to be around ?10 per week but london I do the touring option and then move it

when the advertising websites take your identification for verification do they hold these ID Details?

As far as anybody knows, yes. Eros certainly do, anyway.

Hi. :) Does anyone know of a good old fashioned actual newspaper in London that accepts adult adverts? I've searched online and can't find anything as they all seem to be online today. Thanks!
-
Hi i have a question that may be able to be answered i am in the U.S. and they have officially taken down backpage. I was wondering if any one knows where to post ? :-\
-
Has anyone heard of a site called Your Lover? Says it's free and will always be.
-
Bath back page is a good one if you live in the south west I live all the way in Salisbury and get clients coming to see me from bath a few times a week and clients wanting overnight bookings it costs a few quid a week and would be very good business for people in somerset I should imagine if I have quite a few calls a week when I live 45 miles away .
How is it working then for you? All OK?
Cos, I am interested, as I have started to spend a couple of weekdays (evening really am free) in Southampton and the AW seems to be dead in the area. I don't want that much; I'd be happy with one booking max a day.
-
Hello again,
I have decided to return after all that.
My AW profile is gone and they've subsequently asked me for ID etc on my new one. Which isn't going to happen for a variety of reasons that I'm not personally okay with.
I need to have a proper read through the site again but just thought I would mostly say hello again on the most apt thread for me at the minute ???
Oh and response to a probably now dead question, but in case it's useful for others - a website was handy for me back in the day. God I feel old. :FF
-
I posted my ad on vivastreet over the weekend. After they approved it I had to modify it and wait for another 2 days. I have to modify it again, add some photos but I don't want to wait another 2 days because I had to pay in the beginning and basically I am gonna lose the money I've paid because couldn't find option to pay after approving the ad. Any ideas? :FF

Does anyone use viva street in the north east I am thinking of advertising on there but I was not sure if it was something mainly for the south.
Any help is appreciated. Thank You
-
I think vivastreet keeps the same level everywhere in UK. I've tried to Google escorts London, escorts new castle, escorts Manchester etc and always VS comes first. I guess it has the highest paid ads so it's good everywhere.

There's a long list of directories which you can link a site to on this very thread (and some of them require a front page banner or back link to get a free listing), plus quite a lot of stuff about SEO in the IT section :).

Wheres best to advertise if i tour scotland and belfast ?

Any recommendations for Wales, specifically Cardiff?

What about Southampton and surrounding areas? Up to Wiltshire.
Thanks

Wheres best to advertise if i tour Scotland and Belfast ?
For SCOTLAND - Escort Scotland - that comes up on the first page you will get more calls for bookings from that site I always do when I go to Edinburgh.
For BELFAST again Escort Ireland - It is a must to do an advert on that site it comes 4 in line aw is not so great in Ireland. When I was in Belfast I used that site. You have to pay for both but is worth it. Also have a backpage add to for both areas.

Create an account and sign in, go to your dashboard and then click "Place an ad".
It will then say "What are you advertising?" Type "escort" into the box below and you should be able to pick "Escort Services in Adult".

You select Place an add - then click - 18 + adult then finally select category of escort services.
Most you will see when doing search is Fareham etc which is very close to Southampton and Portsmouth but as you will be only one depending when you go you will get some hits. Use a more central post code of Southampton.

You can pay via any credit or debit card.
I tried the most expensive option once and did get a lot of bookings from it, mainly older white guys who might not have the internet. However I don't think the print edition is very strong in the Southampton area, so I'd stick to the ?40 option for one month with boost to the top every week.
-
Backpage so complicated. Can't figure out the bitcoins.
However, it lets me post as often as I want.

Hi,
I am newish to the industry.
I see this original post was in 2011. Is there an updated post anywhere that has more recent info or would you say the same still applies??
I have recently tried to set up a profile on Adultwork, but its a nightmare isnt it, but it seems to be the best of the worst?

it's a month, but without any reposts.

Thanks vc. Does that mean i have to do a whole new ad when my month is up. Do u know if its any good in the essex area x

No, it's only effective in Sussex and Kent. They aren't known outside of that core area.
Does that mean i have to do a whole new ad when my month is up.
Not sure if this is what you're asking, but you can just repost the advert and pay again.

Hi VC :) Punterlink has gone down in recent years apparantly but has this site gone down in effectiveness as well: londonukescorts, it was recommended at the beginning of this thread but as someone pointed out the earlier info might be out of date

I can't comment on Selectanescort, as I've never paid for advertising on there, but I have paid for an ad on Adultzone, and for me I hardly noticed an increase in clients. Others maybe different though.

That was exactly my experience with it in Brighton, London, and Sheffield.
Some ladies seem to do really well with it so I wonder if there is a certain "type" of client or escort niche for which it works well (maybe PSE?) but not others. I am mature-ish and curvy and relatively vanilla.

Some days it'll be like this but then other days you're raking in hundreds. It's really up and down but as Vivastreet is the first thing that comes up when you type in escort+Manchester (or whatever other area) then there is a significant increase in timewaster calls. I take every booking with a grain of salt until I get the "on my way" text and even then I'm still iffy.

Where his good to advertise in Liverpool for a big BBW? I use adult work right now.
-
How do people find Punternet these days for listings?
At the moment I only use AW and occasionally VS. x
-
Most ladies I know work well on VS but I personally have never had any success with it, regardless of location.
-
VS makes me lose the will to live quite frankly. No shows numpties daft questions general timewasters and losers.....!

Hi Girls, anyone know what sites are best to advertise for Hillingdon or South Buckinghamshire area? Viva street attracts a lot of the Timewaster or those that always have questions but never actually book. I have used Friday ad and got calls from them but wondered if I can change locations as I'm starting to tour.
Does ukadultzone work for you?

You can change location for free with Friday Ad. However I'm not sure if it gets used that far out. It's stronger in West sussex.
When I've done Heathrow before I've used AW local search for Hillingdon and put a free ad on Cracker. Plenty of calls.

Is it worthwhile to have two ads on cracker in London? One that updates on the other and another updating every half hour?
-
Is it worthwhile to have two ads on cracker in London? One that updates on the other and another updating every half hour?
TBH I've only taken a free ad in London and just put it live when I want to get calls. It's so expensive in London and their search position is not even that good.

Hi
Can anybody suggest where is best to advertise for Essex?
-
I've been considering escorting for a while and am thinking of doing a test run of a couple of weeks to see how it goes. If you were advertising in two or three places initially where would you put your money and would you consider any papers etc local to the area or just stick to the main escort sites?
Also when would you start your ads running? A few days before you're going to start working?

Hello girls! I was wondering which are the best sites to advertise at the moment? I read a lot around here and I found a huge list. But all discussions were like ages ago. I am not sure if they are still worth it. I am in central London mostly and sometimes in Hertfordhire.
Thank you Xx

Hi, I'm trying to find out what site I would advertise on for touring in Europe and escort friendly hotels or Appartments to work from. Also looking for agencies for travel international companion. If anyone has any contacts or info please inbox message me. Hope to hear from someone soon, hope this is posed in the right place, not done this before.
-
Do you have to have a website to advertise on Punternet?
Thanks.
-
Does anyone advertise on Cherry Girls if so is it worth investment. I did a search and nothing recent updated on here.
-
Is Ace Massage still good?
-
I tried advertising with Ace Massage one year I didn't get a single call in six months. I think it will depend where you live.
-
Hi! i am looking to advertise more...i just deleted my twitter account ( not worth it! at least in my experience )
i have my own website...thinking punternet? worth it?
i am on Aw only and i need to boost a bit the business!
xxThank you
-
I'm still hoping someone will reply as to whether advertising on Punternet is worth it but after doing a London search and only coming up with 24 profiles in the categories I chose to match me, I am thinking it might be a long shot.
Most service providers are also charging 250 an hour. :-\

I had a silver profile there when I lived in London. I got 3 bookings out of it in 15 months. Took in again recently for a couple of months and got zero. Even though I have 2 great reviews there. So for me not worth it at all.
And no, you don't need a website.

Thank you, Aqua.
Sounds like it's a bit of a long shot for touring ladies.

Hi, after reading the first part of this thread, I've put a profile on "my local escort"
I chose the free option for now and have had 3 enquiries and no bookings.
Is this because my number isn't showing?
Does anyone on here pay to advertise on that site with any success??

I pay 10 per month and I usually get one booking out of it at least.

I pay 10pcm for my local escorts. For me besides my site and aw my local escorts works best altogether with openadultdirectory and couple of other directories.

Could anyone recommend which BDSM related advertising sites are good for London as I'm going there in September for two days?
I'm not keen on using adultwork because of verification pictures, any help would be greatly appreciated

it is great that! just wondering if it is ok..for aw team i mean...
as they are very strict usually about link of aw profile!
should be ok??

very bad this week, my target ahaha forgot them! i worked only on monday.
so yesterday (bored) i posted on my local escort (i posted a free one, today i will pay for a standard at 10 pcm), on Viva (standard one with url), i am already on aw with more than 100 positive feedback and field report every day of the week AT, on select an escort ( free one ) , i own my website. I updated FG and PG on aw, often update content.....
What i could do more? i should invest in ads i think...to boost my business, right? i should be positive and think that will pay off ads everywhere....??? some return in my small investment....

What's the best places for Heathrow?
I've normally just posted it on my ad and in touring sections in AW, Selectanescort, Ukadultzone, Punterlink and Oldestprof as well as posting on the Bigtithut forum. I have always just relied on free ads.
Is there any other sites I should be using? And are paid ads a necessity or can you get away with free ads?
-
For Heathrow I'd go for Backpage as well but a free ad will probably be sufficient. it'll be more about weeding out your TW!

If you have your own website list yourself everywhere (I can suggest open adult directory, euroescortgirls (intrestingly that site works for me), aphtodite lounge, etc.). You can also think about banner ads too.
-
Punternet is now under new ownership since August. The forums are gone.
-
Hi was hoping to start getting featured on other sites apart from.aw .is anyone able to send me a list or direct me to a previous post with a selection or link please.
Hope this is the right section for this post .

Ladies i know certain areas work better for different adverts but where are the best places to advertise in the east midlands obviously i know about AW but does anywhere else help?
-
Vivastreet but expect time wasting calls too. I do have few regular good clients from viva.
-
I did viva St and BP
Like other said lots of idiots but a few very good easy clients
I use a separate number and a auto text reply which filters out the dicks
-
Thanks ladies i did try friday ad online for east midlands but useless there advert was very good down south plenty of customers but not good up here.

Hello everyone,
Which sites would be worth advertising on for massage only services that is sensual, tantric and body to body massage, basically rekaxing naked massage with hand relief. I know of adultwork(more escort enquiries), viva street (tw and more escort enquiries), backpage/cracker (hit and miss).
Are there any other sites that are good for the purpose? Please share your experiences with above sites.
Thank you.
-
The population is far fewer than the south so that would be reflected in the number of enquiries also.
-
You are totally right i never even thought about that the population is half the size of other counties in the SE area of the country.
-
RIP eros guide. I guess the recent raid is the end of my favourite listing. The site is still up, but nobody seems to be working. My requests for updates expire. While AW is my most effective ad, the clients I got from eros were the best. ???
-
Ladies i know certain areas work better for different adverts but where are the best places to advertise in the east midlands obviously i know about AW but does anywhere else help?
I've found backpage/cracker is fairly good in this area, but a HUGE amount of TW.
I bought a new cheap handset and PAYG sim and put that on for the BP ad.
Set an autoreply for all texts and calls on that phone to send "Auto reply: thanks for your interest. please view my rates and services at mywebsite.com/rates and follow the instructions to make a booking."
Weeds out 90% of the TW.

Hey. I tried to create sponsored backpage ad but they gave me error and said I need to contact this email xxx for asking what's wrong. I did it but no reply in 2-3 days.
So what to do next?
-
Try to post it again I guess. Did you by any chance upload a photo into the video box? I've had that a few times and you have to write the whole thing out all over again, very frustrating.
-
No. And I wrote them again, no message back in 6 days :/
Tried to set up new profile, doesn't work. :FF

If you post on cracker, it automatically displays on backpage as well. Create a cracker ad, if backpage picks it up too, you can add sponsor on cracker.

Like most of you I use AW but is there any other site out there that is just has good?

Other than adultwork what are the most profitable sites to use for promotion in bristol? Trying to maximise my profit.

Thought it best to put this here rather than a new thread! I just tried to put an ad on Vivastreet (brave I know) as it comes up high on google search in my area. Anyway my ad was not approved haha refused based on information I provided. Now I don't think I mentioned actual sex in my ad but I'm not sure what I did wrong?
Are there any things to avoid or watch out for, I would like to try advertising on here.
TIA! x

Well - all that really means is that they've invested a lot in SEO (search engine optimisation). Yes if someone googles "escorts in sheffield" it may come up, but how many clients do that, rather than just going to their regular directory such as AW?
You'll notice that AW doesn't ever appear in google results (unless you search something very very specific such as an individual username.) Yet many of us fine the vast majority of our work comes from it.

Welsh ladies - can I please ask where you find is best to advertise? I'm in the South Wales Cardiff / Swansea / Newport area. I use AW now and am wanting to add to that. Backpage doesn't seem to be an option right now as my ad was 'community removed' and I've had zero response from their CS and my new ad is not showing on the site.
I'm thinking about Viva although it seems not so good around here? Also escort-wales and perhaps Friday-Ad too. I'm happy to pay if it's worth doing, or trying at least. I'd rather have a few paid good ads that I can control and keep updated than a ton of free ones where I'll forget. Unless you can suggest any free ones worth trying please?
TIA! x

To be honest only AW worked for me there. X

I'm not exactly sure but a quick Google and I found it was something like some fucker reporting the ad as spam or constantly clicking on my link or something. :-[ So cheers very much whoever did that. The ad had been up for a while and relisted a couple of times with updates.
Oh okay. I have relied on AW since I've been doing this but sometimes it's good sometimes utter shite and I need to diversify. Hard to know where best to put my money. Need to put some eggs in other baskets!

I took advantage of the free VivaStreet trial last week, which means it's now ended and up for renewal. Apparently, because of an overly-complicated-sounding pricing model that seems predominantly based on a regional component, the fact that I'm in Scotland means the cost would be ?9.99 for 7 days of ad - that equates to about ?42 a month - and that's without bells and whistles.
I was advised of this when I queried since I couldn't find any clear info on pricing anywhere. The agent noted that, as other posters have indicated, if you get a referral to the Sales team then they can offer longer terms at different rates making it potentially more cost-efficient but there was also a slight hint that you'd maybe have to take some of the add-ons or tie yourself in for an extended period to qualify.
It certainly ranks highly in searches but that's not a help if all you get are TW's and end up stuck in a relatively expensive ad contract.
So I guess I'm really asking the same ol' questions: what are other's experiences and is it worth it?
-
Its been a while since I used any paid ads as wasn't really focusing on escorting, but looking to up the amount of work I do and do more regular in call days.
So I was wondering what sites are good these days for Glasgow (apart from AW) for a busty bbw ?. Before I used Ukadultzone, Selectanescort, Backpage/Cracker, Tartanladies, PrettyBigEscorts, Bbwukescorts, BTH
-
I found Backpage pretty good in Glasgow. Escort Scotland was pointless.
-
Anyone know where is good to advertise if touring in Hong Kong and Singapore?

Hi, Im new here... Im currently in West Midlands (Staffordshire area) I advertise on adultwork only, does anyone know what other sites are good for this area please? Also does anyone use seeking arrangment and has anyone found that this works for them is it worth the signing up?
Thanks
TG :)
-
I had no luck with SA but I am older (40s, advertise as 30s). If you're in your early 20s you might maybe get someone on the hook but most guys on there are tight as fuck.
West Mids for me I do Adultwork, Backpage, UKAdultzone. My Local Escorts (because I keep forgetting to cancel my direct debit)

Being required to buy add-ons /upgrades to your advert or to accept a lengthy management contract never used to be a requirement of having a VS account manager. This must be new. Having an account manager does require you to buy all elements of your advertising - upgrades as well as adverts themselves - through the manager, though (as opposed to doing so autonomously). This means that you can't buy or renew your advert on weekends or during public holidays since VS is closed then. Buying any element of your advert in an autonomous way automatically ends your account management.
In my own personal experience, autonomous advert-buying is MUCH more convenient (& much LESS babyish!) than VS-managed advert-buying.
-
Do those who escort part time find that they can advertise on fewer sites?. With still getting enough business?. I'm not sure if this approach will work, so like to weigh up the options.
It seems alot to pay one site monthly for two incall days a week to escort. Although I am available for outcalls in the evenings with notice.
Many thanks.
Xx.

I just had a call from a guy saying he found me on Yelp ???

Thanks for the list. I am back after a hiatus . I tried london Uk escorts, but they didn't like my photo. Lol. Apparently, the quality wasn't good enough. But, plenty of others to try out.

This is where not to advertise.
I received a text message from sensual-massage(dot)me(dot)uk saying that I should get listed with them and 'ROI guaranteed'.
I checked the website. Looks piss-poor.
I texted back that their website looks outdated and not busy and that they should work on their business before asking people for money to advertise with them.
Some twat replied first something about simplicity and then texted again that my website is not great either and that they can initially list me for free before I start making money.
LOL. What a jackass ::)
-
Anybody on adultseek? I?ve only ever got my work from AW and tbh I do pretty well but it?s been getting a bit slower recently.
It?s free to join but you can pay for upgrades. Has anyone had any luck with it? I?m not working atm so people could be calling me and I?d have no idea.

Thank you Grace, I've never heard of Locanto.
I tried Friday Ads last month but had only 1 no show from there.

Have you got Adultwork? Vivastreet has always been useless in London but maybe guys will go to that with Backpage gone. Not sure if Acemassage still good. You may well need to try local papers again. Craigslist good too and free. I know how you feel because I felt like my whole business had gone when Adultwork pulled me down and I felt well and truly in the shit. I picked myself up and took myself to Ireland where Adultwork wasn?t essential. There will always be an alternative for you. Xx

Thank you for support and ideas LadyOM :-*, I actually deleted my AW a couple of months ago, so now back to working the old corner.
And new corners too. Time to get creative.
I?m going to try acemassage - Ace massage used to be good back in the day when I started years ago.
-
we will be back working on the streets.
No we wont.
A lot of my business came from BP so I'm as pissed off as everyone else but let's keep this in perspective.
AW will get more popular. Viva will get more popular. Whatever directory in your town that was below BP in Google rankings will get more popular.
As someone else said guys won't stop punting they will simply find us somewhere else.
-
Yes Locanto is free to post on, or it was last time I used it in January.

Hi Paris, do you mean you can't have the same pics on your website as Locanto?
-
Ladies, I thought I will wake up with a clearer head and some answers but it looks bad.
I was aware of SESTA/FOSTA but I didn't pay enough attention until literally all my income is gone with seizure of Backpage.
Censorship of the internet will only get worse as free internet gives too much power to the people.
We live in the world where we're cattle on a human farm.
I support Myles Jackman on Patreon, will support Pandora Blake too as she's doing a good job.
I'm looking into openrightsgroup.org now
I think we might end up going back to the days of putting ads in the paper! In a funny way that wouldn't bother me all that much personally. I started back in the days before the internet took over and this god awful review system that we have now.
Whatever happens there will be some adjustments to make for sure.
-
I'm arriving in London tomorrow for the first time and the issue of BACKPAGE has left me personally blocked.
It was the best alternative, right?
AW asks you for a blood sample to make your profile correctly ... :FF
My question is desperate.
Which alternative do you see more feasible ?.
Vivastreet because it is already a known website?
Where are you getting calls from these last hours?
Please help!.
I have my trip paid and I go for the first time and all this happens :(
-
Brothels and newspapers.
-
Hi Paris, do you mean you can't have the same pics on your website as Locanto?

But I just tried earlier and you can't put any pictures only a website link

Why do you think Gumtree doesn't work for sensual massage? friends who advertise on there tell me their phone rings of the hook.Of course you can't place "sensual massage" ads, you have to advertise normal therapeutic massage then say something like "friendly massage therapist" (wink wink) and post a picture of a flower (lets say). if definately doesn;t work for escorts but it does for sensual massage.
Anybody here any experience with gumtree? how did it go?

I use gumtree for massage, I don't escort through it though. Works really well in some locations for me. Some locations it seems to attract clients who have limited English language. But well worth advertising.

Do you girls think Gumtree work sfor sensual massage? friends who advertise on there tell me their phone rings of the hook.Of course you can't place "sensual massage" ads, you have to advertise normal therapeutic massage then say something like "friendly massage therapist" (wink wink) and post a picture of a flower (lets say). if definately doesn;t work for escorts but it does for sensual massage.
Anybody here any experience with gumtree? how did it go?

Because gumtree are very good at kicking you off and now they are going to know escorts are going to try and advertise on there but let's give it a try

Does gumtree work for london? anyone tried?
-
I don't have personal experience of Guntree (yet!) but a friend of mine who does massage uses it in London and gets a ton of calls every day. It's best to pay to be featured and as someone else said be very careful not to sound as if you're offering sexual services because they will remove the ad. Writing something like 'this is not a sexual service' seems to be the trick. Reverse psychology maybe!
I'm definitely going to try it for Edinburgh

I've also been told that Gumtree call you on your ad number every day asking if you offer sexual services/hand relief and if you say anything except "no" they will pull your ad.

Does gumtree work for london? anyone tried?
I've not tried for me/escort but freind did sensual massage and spent time in London. All her buisness came from there, she did well booked couple of time most evenings but sometimes they actually wanted a massage (not an issue as she is predominately a masseuse who does sensual when things go to pot). I messaged to ask her and she was booted for saying "personal". This was about 18months ago though.

has anyone hree actually had gumtree calling them and asking????
-
I have also heard that gumtree is quite good.. I think its time I invest in a portable massage table. Also dont use any telephone number associated with your escorting persona as gumtree will check the number you provide on the advert.
-
Locarno is like backpage cheap and cheerful.
Do you get much work from it MD?

Yes I have seen Nora Batty and a couple of other ladies mention it.

That sounds a bit worrying to be honest. I wondeer if they'd be calling from a call centre? If so there would be a lot of noise on the background so it might be easier to tell if it was them

That's a good question. I wonder how you'd know if it was Gumtree or a genuine enquiry. Its something to be aware of anyway!

Anybody on adultseek? I?ve only ever got my work from AW and tbh I do pretty well but it?s been getting a bit slower recently.
It?s free to join but you can pay for upgrades. Has anyone had any luck with it? I?m not working atm so people could be calling me and I?d have no idea.
Yes I am although over the years I am pretty much everywhere 😂

No free ads on bed page :FFand I dont have PayPal
-
I tried looking at Bedpage but like others have said it is sooo slow.
I noticed that one lady was advertising with Google ads which may be worth a shot. I expect she's paying per click but her ad was very prominent in the search results.
Another idea which I'd like to try is getting guys to sign up to a mailing list and sending out a newsletter with chit chat and tour dates every week or so. Thinking aloud here but perhaps I could sign them up after each session to keep guys in the loop. Has anyone tried this?
-
A mailing list is an excellent idea, Grace!
I'm not sure for how long Google or any other mainstream platform will be sex work-friendly (not that they are now), but we should be prepared that we can be eradicated from the mainstream.
Therefore it's worth to have a safely-hosted website, email (protonmail being the most popular it seems, protonmail.ch rather than .com and in March proton also introduced pm.me) and indeed build your own mailing list.
I'm not sure if newsletter/ e-commerce platforms like mailchimp accept sex workers?
I'm also thinking of having a 'texting list' - a small number of clients might be interested in receiving an occasional update.
And being connected to the community. Switter is a fantastic example of people taking things in their own hands :)
If not for Saafe, I would feel desperate and hopeless after disappearance of Backpage.
-
Hi 80's, yes I think a mailing list could be good! Does Protonmail offer the option to automate a list? I doubt if Mailchimp would allow sex workers but it's certainly worth checking. (Although if you kept the mails fairly vanilla and didn't mention anyhing sex work related they wouldn't need to know!)
I agree we are going to have to start thinking out of the box now because whatever happens in America usually follows on here after a while.
-
Mailchimp require you to provide a physical address, and since this isn't hidden from anybody subscribing it's unlikely to be appropriate for us.
If your site or blog is Wordpress, there are myriad plugins which can do you a mailing list/newsletter. I've had one set up ready to go on mine for about two years but for some reason I haven't got round to it yet :).
-
Ah, that would definitely be a problem Amy! There's no way Im giving them my address. Although maybe a cheap mailbox would be an alternative.
I'm using Wix so I'll see if it has any plug ins. Thanks :)
-
I'm not sure how a mailing list would work on proton but I think that some website plugin, as Amy suggests, would be a better option.
I had a client today (reg) and asked him if he initially found me on Backpage.
He said he can't remember, somewhere on the internet, he googled 'erotic massage [my area]'.
So far, directories such as BP are/were giving us some visibility but once they are gone, all is left on top of Google are agencies - and that's where traffic will go to. We as independents will be swallowed by Tescos and Amazons of the sex industry.
The little ones will be gone, unless you're in a remote area or are great at SEO.
As I read in one of VC's posts, the high ranking of Backpage and similar sites comes from the fact that sex/ personals are only a part of their ads. They are mainstream.
Once we're pushed out from the main stream of traffic, we're loosing a lot of business.
We will be pushed to the virtual sex ghetto.
That's why we should fight nail and teeth to stay in the mainstream.
How to do it? By supporting Myles Jackman and Pandora Blake on Patreon (at can be as little as a dollar a month).
Supporting openrightsgroup.org
That's all I can think of. If anybody has more ideas, please share. My understanding of the situation is pretty basic and I'm still trying to work out what's going on.
-
Another thought - is it really that difficult to set up a directory?
I mentioned earlier a jackass contacting me from sensual-massage-whatever directory. It looked so bad. And he (or she) wanted to charge 30 quid a month to be listed there. If a jackass can set up his website/ directory, it can't be that difficult.
Can we set up our own directory for independents, something like a non-profit collective?
Something that can be shared/ circulated?
Like a 'Friends' page that you can see on some sex worker's websites.
I don't know. Any thoughts?...
-
Setting up a directory is easy, it's getting it ranked high in the search engine listings so clients will see it that's the big problem.

Yes, and in order for that to happen you need a lot of money and resources. 🙂
-
I was thinking that it could be added as a link to individual's website/ social media.
It would be relatively small but trusted.
Hmm?...
Like in addition having a 'Friends' page with let's say 3 pals you're doing duo with, you can add a link to the directory and say - here's a directory with independents, organic and home-grown :P. Boom. I don't know.
People have banners with directories on their websites. It could be a banner.
From what I know Craigslist started as a mailing list, right?
We could set up our own small platform. With the intention that it's a non-profit and it can increase visibility for the independents.

And run it as a co-operative. Like people growing vegetables together... :) :) :D

I believe that was the intention behind switter.com, but everytime i go in there it looks like a sex worker's twitter ??? great to network with the sex industry providers but really not intended for business.

It's not the most recent example of somebody's Next Big Idea (http://www.saafe.info/main/index.php?topic=16181.msg122461#msg122461) but it was the easiest to find. I suppose it makes a change from punters banging on about how they could do it.
I remember a couple of other people trying the same thing and as Kazzle says, the problem isn't cobbling a site together, it's getting it seen. And even that's going to be childs play compared with getting punters to use it - if we/they don't use the many well-established directories already up and running then what is the point of having more and spreading the ads even thinner?
-
Personally i don't have the time not the energy to get involved into what is a big project to be honest, but what I'm going to do is try to promote bedpage as the new alternative. So i'm going to send a newletter to absolutely everybody in my inbox (hundreds of people and clients) telling them about the new site as the "alternative". i'm also promoting it on twitter and twatter as much as I can. I would reccomend ladies and gents here to spread the word too. However I might do a monthly newletter from now on, that's it's a great idea.
-
Its a bit like the chicken or egg or rather a case of what come first the escorts or the punters
Do the punters follow the escorts to the popular site or the escorts follow the punters
At the moment probably the best thing to do is if you have your own website to look at google see what directories come up on the fist 3 pages under the relative Escort words that you think guys will find you and add your self to these sites
If you don't have a website start thinking about getting one - don't just rely on your AW to file because if that goes down your screwed but you can link your website to your AW profile
Around 2 years ago and for many many years my website was on page 1 of google for my area and surrounding areas
My website and details were and still are on practically every site apart from 2 directories on the first 3 pages of google for most of my area that I live in in the southwest
My website is now page 2 on google for my local areas but I'm going to do some work to get back to page 1
I've updated all the adds I have on the directories and plan to check these every 2 weeks even if they don't get me any work straight away if they are free then it's worth it
I'm going to start bloggging more as I always found that worked in moving my website up especially if I mention the names of cities
And I'm going to make a point of tweeting more and including certain locations as that also helps as well
The problem a lot of people are having is that they rely on one form of advertising and when it goes down your basically screwed which is what has happened to BP and a lot of escorts that only advertised on it
Also for those of you that are BP reliant or even if your not reliant on BP start tweeting about Bedpage or start blogging about it it all helps for guys to find it although i think it will be ranked pretty high in a few weeks naturally

Looks like they already are starting to grow vegetables together :) !

Thank you for your thoughts, Paris, very helpful as always! x
On the topic of massage - I have a massive issue with advertising on Gumtree or any other place that would require innocent wording and pretending to be a straight masseuse.
If I could explain it all clearly when they call me, that's fine but if I have to be vigilant of a call from Gumtree, then I can't say anything over the phone. And then what... A client comes over expecting a proper massage.
It messes up my business and messes up businesses of straight massage therapists. And helps to create a culture where clients push massage therapists for HE, which must be absolutely horrible for them.
-
Bedpage is currently under maintenance. I am hoping it's to improve the listings and not as a preventative measure as to what happened with Backpage.

UKAdultzone is ranking quite highly in Google for a few areas I've checked. Plus I believe the admin is a former working girl, so it's nice to have a site which is run by someone who knows the business from our side. She often does special offers on the upgrades as well. I get quite a few enquiries from it.

Yes, she's nice to deal with, and sometimes gives out little batches of free credits for various reasons. I've never paid to advertise with them, but I have had clients mention they've found me on there.

It's a good site as you can have multiple location for a month
And you can rebost it to the front page as well and pay to be premium which stays even if you move to a different location
I had a booking yesterday and today from in in Birmingham

I came across this website on Switter: https://uk.gfedating.com/
There is a section for 'Massage' too.
And it's free sign up and membership for 3 months, which is only fair as there is noone there so far.
Only a small number of sex workers in the USA section. Here's their Twitter: twitter.com/gfedating
On Twitter it says that if you sign up in April, rest of 2018 is free? Maybe this directory will take off?
P.S. I emailed them with some questions on verification/ data/ .com domain.

I saw it too, but the European section is completely empty and they haven't really done any internet advertising besides marketing it on switter ???
-
Has anyone got a phone number for the administrator of UK Adultzone, then?
Yesterday, I contacted them via webform regarding accepting my new phone number. Since they have not yet replied, I would like to call.
-
I received a reply from GfeDating.
Their verification process consists of:
1. Sending 3 photos (One main image of themselves. A picture of them holding their ID and then a picture of them holding a piece of paper with that days date on it and the name of our site.)
2. Then they compare the image with ID and the billing info
Apparently their hosting, servers and domain 'are overseas'.
No reply regarding how do they store and protect data. No 'Hello' at the beginning of the email, no 'Regards' or anything at the end.
Personally, I'll give them a miss.
-
In regards to Ukadultzone when you register you get to place your profile in local area and get two areas only to add on.

With Backpage gone need to look at other places - especially for my international clients since I used to get a lot of American clients, who always tipped very well there.
Can we ask other sites to advertise here as my posts not showing?

I so agree with you on the international clients. My Tuesdays and Wednesday feel so naked now as I always have dinner date or Heathrow outcall from backpage international clients. Investing on other sites but the ones that on first page only and which other ladies on here recommend I keep looking back to this thread.

How good is UKAdultzone in London?
I also do a lot of erotic massage (client can then extend to escort) and backpage was also good for that. However, a friend from passed used friday-ad and londonmassagelistuk . Has anyone tried or using find any good? I am thinking just try each for month and see what is best.
-
I started using Friday add recently
The good thing is that you can change the location for free
If you have the auto boost once a week to bring you back to the front page then it's 59 a month
-
Re Adultzone:
A HUGE thank you to all those who have recently shared advice relating to this website.
Yesterday, I got my first ever booking from there and it made ALL the difference to my day.
Thank you.

That sounds like they were trying to sell you the upgraded package that includes a print ad (which is pointless if you don't live near where they distribute, i.e. Kent, Sussex and Surrey and a bit of Hampshire.)
If you sign up online and place an ad, it's £35 per month for a basic ad with 1 photo, £59 for a month with a weekly repost to the top and unlimited photos, and £69 per month for a featured ad with unlimited photos.
In other news, I've had a booking today from UKAdultzone and this is a client I've seen before who booked me from Backpage. So that's encouraging.

Ladies where’s best to advertise in Scotland apart from adultwork? Xx

Has anyone tried this site a v a e s c o r t s c o m
I put up an advert on there very easy and simple but I am not paying for upgrade. You get number display for free and 1 Image only.
To have more coverage on main page and more image options you got to pay. I am testing it out free package with a new number. If anyone on this forum uses this site let me know what your take on it please. x

Hello ladies,
What are your top 3 websites to advertise in London. Mine were aw, backpage and viva (though i dont like as it attracts too many tw). Havent found a replacement of bp yet. I am on other paid/free directories and would love to know other ladies top 3 websites for london.

-
I'm trying to get listed whenever I can and I'm really frustrated with all these directories.
Seriously, it might be easier to set up our own directory. :FF
Edit: These websites are so bad. They look horrible to be honest, navigating some of them is a mess and there are glitches;
massagetheuk for example - impossible to upload a picture and a contact email is Gmail :FF Come on.
I really don't understand - they charge money, why don't they make some effort to build a good website??
Ace Massage, another example - they look like they are stuck in the 90's.

At the moment I can't name 3 top directories. I started advertising wherever I can and will advertise with Satan himself if he offers a listing. Volume of advertising brings volume of clients. I have more calls in a day than I had in a week from Backpage. With the volume comes the good, the bad and the ugly - no shows, idiot calls, TWs and boundary pushers.
I would say - get a nice personal website and get your ad everywhere. It works.
In one of my previous posts on this thread I put a summary of massage directories to advertise on.
In my view, if you have to pay for an ad and have only one or few bookings from there, you still make a profit. And it all adds up.
Only after Backpage is gone I realized how passive I was with my business and marketing.

Just another massage directory I came across: https://www.xmassage.co.uk/
I think it's fairly new. Looks pretty, which is always a bonus.
And there is a small massage section on https://londonescortguide.com
-
A little update from the massage front - I really recommend https://massageguidelondon.com/
I have quite a lot of traffic coming from this website.
Basic listing is free (you just need to add their banner). The site looks nice and is easy to navigate.
And it ranks high in Google! (Google 'sensual massage in London and it's on the first page)

Hello girls and boys!! Lively trend, I’m loving it!
It’s my first post in the community so please, be gentle! ;)
My name is Denely and I’ve been escorting as an independent in London for a couple of years. I just thought I should share this website where I’ve been advertising recently and in just two days I got three bookings from there. It’s www.escortspage.co.uk
A client mentioned it to me as the place he now uses to look for escorts after Backpage closed down, so I went to check it out. To be honest, before using it, I was a bit skeptical because we all know that some of these website owners are just trying to make a profit out off our hard earned d**k money (such as disgusting Kommons!! :FF), so I always take my time before parting away with it!
But I’m really glad I took a chance on this one: first I contacted their customer service with some purposely pushy queries just to see how they would handle it and they passed the test with flying colours... got a great response to all of my questions within less than an hour. The site itself looks and works quite similarly to how Backpage used to work: female and ts escorts pay £5 to post and there’s the option to move to top for just a £1 so you know exactly where your ad will be showing! No memberships, no direct debits! Hurrah!! Bargain, I’ll say, compared to how much I spend on Slixa, Eros and Massage Republic monthly. Male/gay escorts I don’t know how much they charge for your ads, sorry guys, but I believe it should be within the same range or probably less.
I also really like the fact that on this escortspage site you pay for the ads via Paypal... as I’m a bit iffy about giving my bank card details directly to any site, this works great for me.
For working women and men that prefer the certain layer of security that platforms like AW offer because clients have to register and you have the feedback to rely on, it might not be their first option. But to me it’s ideal: most of my clients are foreigners in London for business trips or short city breaks therefore AW is never really an option and sites like former Backpage is what they use. I do my own strict screening and always have my safety as a priority so I never had a bad experience.
My service rates are what people consider premium so you can bet I was thrilled when I got three bookings from there after spending less than a tenner in ads! So I’m definitely sticking with it. :D
Sorry for the extra long post, I just thought it would be more helpful to spill all the beans rather than just add a link... and also since it’s my first post I confess... I wanted to impress you ;D
Hope that this will be useful to someone and I’d love to hear back from anyone that gives them a try. Wishing good luck to everyone.

Sorry to say denely but it sounds to like you work for escort page just had a look at this site it seems a load of bull .for a start half of the ads don't even say where the wg is so I can't see clients clicking on every ad just to find out where the wg is no reason ne would have the patients for that
-
Written at the bottom of the site is "Escortspage.co.uk is an interactive computer service that enables access by multiple users and should not be treated as the publisher or speaker of any information provided by any other information content provider" isn't that exactly what is at the bottom of Bedpage's website?
I can't believe you used Wordpress to try to create a directory instead of just using directory software. It's like using a microwave to dry your laundry: it kind of works but it's a stupidly long process instead of just putting it in the fucking tumble dryer.
-
Thank you for sharing your thoughts but I’m afraid you got it wrong about me, Meme10. No, I don’t work for any website, they couldn’t afford me as I charge from £350 per hour of service :)
If its the number ”1” next to my post that makes you challenge my legitimacy, I guess we all were ”newbies” someday and have to start somewhere, right? If its the configuration of the website... well, that’s a matter of browsing preference so I’ll leave it at that. If its the details in my post that unsettled you, care to search for my profiles online (try the one on Slixa) I’ve got a passion for words and things can get quite lengthy ;)
I’ve been following this thread for over an year... I found somewhere that works for me so I decided that it was my turn to pitch in and contribute , as I feel that’s the concept of forums and fellowship among working ladies.
Now I’m off to watch the second part of the footie 8)
Wishing you all the best.
-
Nobody is 'unsettled' (or even particularly interested, I would think).
But if you can't see that deciding your first post here was going to be wildly singing the praises of a random directory - that looks shite at best - rather than making any attempt to engage with other members on some general sex work discussion topics or even introduce yourself on the Hello thread, then you need to accept that some people are going to view that post as a blatant tout if not for yourself, then for somebody you know.
Doing any of the other things I mentioned will erode the effect :)
-
I've seen select an escort on here, is it any good? I've looked at it a few times to advertise but it's hideous to look at, the colours damage my eyes so it must be the same for punters. It's awful to look at and the flashing ads on the left just make me want to close the page down rather than sign up.
Does anyone recommend it? Is it worth the horrible visuals?! ??? ;D

I've never used this website but I'll join you in a rant about horrible looks.
So many of these directories are just NOT PRETTY :FF Why? :FF They look outdated and not pretty and often are difficult to navigate.
I don't understand - there is so much money in this industry. Why don't they make a bit of an effort?
I LIKE PRETTY!!! >:( :D
-
Thanks for your message, Amy. Yes - looking at it in retrospective, not following the forum etiquette was a mishap :-\ so please disregard it.
I took your advice on board and have now posted on the Hello thread and I’m looking forward to be a valuable member for the long run :)
Happy Sunday to everyone x

I find it a really good site especially for tours and the admin is really nice and friendly to deal with and I know a few of the ladies websites were made by the admin and he also runs a few other directories.

Thank you Caledonia, yes I'm sure I looked up another different one and it forwarded me to this one. I need to get my sunglasses out then, I find it so difficult to use and hard to navigate but if it's good then I'll suck it up!
Really though, is there are need for it to be so visually challenging? If the admin ever look on here it really is hard to view.
-
Like Caledonia mentioned the tour section is good especially if your on twitter as they get retweeted several times a day
And the admin has always been prompt and on the ball which is plus
-
I have just spent hours going through all the recommendations for adverting here and thought it would be helpful to sum up the costs etc on a more recent post for anyone interested.
Viva Street - free option, paid option - most of the ads look fake and it would be easy for your advice to get lost in it all.
Punternet - 15 / 30 per month - doesn't look as though it gets used very often due to lack of ads, not for Scotland anyway.
My local escorts - 9.95 / 34.95 / 44.95 per month - looks like a busy site and could get some work from it. Will definitely sample this one.
Punterlink - 60 per month minimum (depends on location) - doesn't have many ads on it and seems to be used more by agencies to advertise their girls. May be worth a shot but I probably won't use it at that price.
Select an escort - couldn't even navigate the site to find pricing and it just hurt my eyes to look at it.
UK Belles - free - have to request via email to have an ad, but weirdly the email link doesn't work. Unsure if this site is still "active".
Escort pages - no longer active
Punting zone - no longer active
Ukadultzone - free and paid for options - looks alright for a free ad!
Girl-directory - free - again, worth it for a free ad.
sexy independent escorts - 20 per month - doesn't seem like a good advertising platform for my area but could be ok for others.
worldescortguide - banner exchange - looks quite decent for attracting non UK clients, worth a try for a banner exchange.
bellesescorts - free - may aswell stick an adult on if it's free!
openadultdirectory - banner exchange -
escort-scotland - couldn't find prices but if I remember correctly from previous visits, it's around 60 - 80 per month - busy site but all ads look professional photos, no selfie types so would need to prepare for that competition if placing an ad.
topescortbabes - free - didn't have many ads for my area but again, it's free so may aswell try it.
Slixa - mainly a US site but have 4 UK locations including London and Glasgow. The Glasgow section isn't operating yet but hopefully soon as the site looked quite well maintained and a popular site for US clients when visiting UK.
OK, that's about all I managed! There are some decent options in there if you want to avoid using Adult work, but the sad realisation for me is that it's a necessary evil. I will definitely be padding out my marketing with a few of these sites in the next month and will feedback on the response I get.
-
I still rely heavily on Adultwork which is great when you are busy because it's so cheap but when its quiet it's frustrating. I always loved paper advertising on friday ad or the yellow papers but don't think they do paper versions now? I've been around for 20 years and puntingzone and punterlink were the gold mine but it was posting in the forums and being a presence rather than the ad you post.

I find less and less guys are coming from AW.
-
Up until now, my only platform was AW but have noticed a swift decline in bookings. I still manage to meet my targets but not as easily as a few years ago.
I agree with both of you; when it's busy it's great but the last few weeks have been very quiet on that site. It may be something to do with them wanting verification from clients now, or it could just be that other platforms are gaining more momentum. Definitely time to start putting eggs in more than one basket for me :-S

Friday Ad still has a paper version. I think Loot is still around too. You do tend to get old guys without smartphones from it though!

Surprised to see nobody say thank you for this great post! Much appreciated Veggiegal, I completely agree regarding select an escort and there are some here I've not seen so will give them a go.
I'm not sure VS have any free ads, not in the escort & massage section anyway although in my area it's only £4.99 a week with no upgrades. I get a fair amount from it actually, similar levels of pests to AW but had quite a lot of bookings from there, for the price it's very much worth it to me. I have oddly enough had guys from VS who say they only use VS because they think AW is dodgy! :o Now personally I think the opposite but hey, at least I get some extra bookings!
:D

I paid a large amount for advertisement for 6months on cityoflove.com (£384)
I knew that site is good but I didn't want to pay that much. And now I am looking at my Google analytics, they say that 32% of my clicks comes from this site! Other linked sites only gives me max 2%

I've never heard of them, that's a lot of money!
Does the number of clicks translate into paid bookings though?
-
I agree, Veggiegal thank you for your summing up.
Just thought i would add that Friday Ad has been working really really well for me since BP went down. This month I've been in Essex and Hampshire and it accounted for more than half of my bookings. Their minimum purchase is one month so I thought "fuck it" and moved my location to Shropshire and now Lanarkshire. I've continued getting enquiries from it, whereas it used to be a strictly south-east place to advertise.
UK Adultzone is definitely worth doing as well - it's run by a former sex worker so she understands the things that we need! I don't get many bookings from it but would definitely give her my money in preference to Viva :)
-

Yes.
I think they have free profiles too. But they have loads of it so it can get lost

So what do you write on your ad?
Because the last time I was there they deleted almost every thing I wrote. You can't write even girlfriend experience, I think!
-
You can definitely say "girlfriend experience " - I just keep it really vague in the main text and tick the appropriate likes. Make it all about "I'm waiting to completely destress you and take all your worries away"
-
If you are talking specifically about Friday Ad, no you can’t write girlfriend experience.
They told me this specifically after deleting it from my ad a while ago without warning. Because it has the word ‘girl’ included....
-
Interesting - it's in mine and always has been! Maybe because I just renew my ad they don't review the wording.
If thats not going through I'd probably stick to something like "Come and see me for a sensual relaxing time where I will take all your cares and worries away"

Assembly4, who are behind Switter (a new social media for sex workers) are developing a new advertising platform for sex workers, called Tryst: https://tryst.at/
I'm very impressed with their proactive approach after SESTA/ FOSTA and creating Switter.
I'll keep my fingers crossed for this project :)
Edit: Let me just add something (not sure if I have full info, so please someone correct me if I'm wrong).
So there are 3 people behind Assembly4.
After SESTA/ FOSTA they didn't sit there complaining - they created a new platform that helped many people.
All by themselves, with no funding and having to support themselves.
Switter now reached 100,000 users.
Do you know how many people support Assembly4 on Patreon? 46.
Further 10 people support them on LiberaPay.
Not complaining again, they are now doing online security workshops for Patreon supporters and also creating this advertising platform (and providing more value and help for people) - to support themselves financially.

Acemassage worth it?
a silver membership (the basic one)
is £25 joining fees but then should be free!? right?
i do offer a GFE experience, not really a massage therapist! is it fine?

According to my Google Analytics, that I only managed to set up a couple of weeks ago, most of my referral clicks come from Ace.
Does it transfer to actual bookings? Hard to tell :-\ One client that I know I had from Ace was pushing for extras.
I don't think it's free at any point, I don't know. I paid for my ad for 3 months.
There are plenty of escort ads there, so not a problem.
-
I currently use Viva Street, AW and UK classified. Several of sites no longer existing Back Page Blondes....Can anyone recommend really good site in agency or board where I can advertise.
-
Hi Ladies,
With the demise of back page, legal issue in USA, what other advertising sources are available and good. Gumtree now will not allow massage advertisements with pictures and you have to be very careful if you advertise there.
Adult Work, Viva Street( Keep on increasing their prices), UK Classified, Friday Ad, can anyone recommend other good sources. What agencies or open websites are good in the UK, London and rest of UK.
Any comment would be appreciated, think we are all in same boat here!

I mostly use aw but I've had 2 in the last 3ish months from skokka which surprised me as I thought it was going to be useless.
Eros is by far my best for outcalls but I flit on and off of Eros depending on how I'm feeling.
My next highest earner is Twitter and my site (possibly combined?), I try to remeber to ask where they found my site but I quite often forget, a few have mentioned adult guide recently to. I get very very little from the other directories.
Has anyone got anything from slixa recently? I saw they've swapped to .com again from attempting the .ch so wondering if traffic increase? It looks fab but they seem to market more to sps than clients? It might be fairly cheap per month but you have to buy a minimum of 60 credits....

Are you ladies in the Uk or USA

I use aw and get a fair anount of last min and on the day. I know someone who does really well on Friday ad there for same day but I didn't have much except the urge to throw my phone out the window with friday ad.

I used Friday Ad, Vivastreet and AW in Thurrock last week. I got most of my bookings from aw and a handful from viva. Not sure if I got any from Friday. Although I have a friend who found Friday very good in the same location.

i will think about!
maybe i should advert my self everywhere... ;D ;D

Where's best to advertise a tour in Manchester?
Some really old threads said Backpage and Cracker but both have gone.
-
Someone could let me know a feedback about Classified?
Work in Central London? i know that i could try as is not so expensive but i am looking to every penny as i am still in verification process with AW! to me look a bit "cheaper" as platform for escorting! but maybe i am wrong!
Thank you!
-
Ace Massage is great for escorts but not for massage... as you will be bombarded with requests for full service if you only do sensual massage.
-
Now that SussexScene has closed, where are Sussex girls gonna go? Friday Ad is really expensive... SS was free.
-
So I'm in Manchester on my first ever tour. I know it's been asked before, but where's the best place to advertise here? I'm doing okay, but there doesn't seem to be much traffic coming from AW. I know different areas seem to use different advertising platforms.
Any info would be appreciated xx

Punterlink like many directories is also free if you have your own website and have their banner on the front page.
-
does anybody have email for findlondonescorts.co.uk ?
I created listing, I have their banner on my site for a while and they still didn't create listing for me.
-
Now that SussexScene has closed, where are Sussex girls gonna go? Friday Ad is really expensive... SS was free.
I think they've re-opened it under different people but not sure what traffic is like
-
I just want to say that both of these sites are scammers:
https://turnonlondon.com/
https://www.alllondonescorts.com/
The say you can create free listing, you have to put their banner on your site's homepage and that's how you will get free link for your site and it will be visible on your profile. But when you fill form, you get to fill listing, but on listing your sites section will go to the listing profile of that user!
Just try yourself. Go to any independent escorts profile and check where link leads.
I'm deleting both of banners from my site.
-
Is there any other sites besides aw to advertise for a nottingham tour?
-
When doing a banner exchange, where do you need to put the banner on your site?
-
Also, do any if you use Escort Scotland and find it successful? It's increased its pricing even more and is now over £100 a month for a basic ad!
-

I find Escort Scotland a good investment and successful. You make back what you put in and I have a different number and name and pics which is separate to my a.w. It is worth having. Ensure you are verified with your pics on that site. x
-

I have a links page on my website where all the banners go. Some ask that they go on the homepage.
-

I have to say that it is very useful for example in aberdeen and in glasgow (although I find that I get more calls from other directories, but I still get calls from Escort Scotland.) Although I would not use it for edinburgh.

New I think ...
uk.skokka.com

Yes, it's a content scraping site. There's a fairly long thread about it here somewhere if anybody can be bothered to look for it.

Had few calls already from there and seen one costumer, so will try for a while

Main thread on Skokka
https://saafe.info/main/questions-and-answers/skokka-another-directory-stealing-profiles/msg334967/#msg334967
4 other threads mentioning Skokka stealing girls profiles and lying that they get permission for all ads.
Several girls have experienced privacy issues including breaching GDPR law, stealing AW & Backpage photos, stealing full face photos.
Some girls have threatened them with police action.
Hopefully they can be prosecuted under GDPR law if they don't remove it.
The ICO (Information Commissioners Office) is very quick and helpful advising
on GDPR and prosecuting data thieves on the public's behalf.
(I’ve rung ICO about date breach with a cab firm and they explained each step they take, clearly on the phone.)
Voluptuous Curves says
In the case of Skokka, because they write some horrible text instead of using your own, so you come across as a non-native English speaker, not to mention thick as mince. They also put you under "tags" that aren't applicable; a friend has had her profile repeatedly posted under bareback and anal for her local area.
-
Hopefully they can be prosecuted under GDPR law if they don't remove it.
GDPR relates to personal data, not marketing text and pictures that are already freely available on the internet and which don't contain anybody's identifying information unless that person posted it themselves in the first place. Any breach Skokka is guilty of relates to copyright legislation, not anything else.
Personally I'd be more concerned about them ripping off AW main profile pictures, but since that's a topic for the specific thread and not this one I think it's probably been covered there already.
-
Whoops I didn't fully understand the GDPR role. :o
That public vs private is important to distinguish! ???
Thanks Amy.

Thank you . I’m going to delete my add ASAP

Remember back in the day of the Daily Sport and local rags? Does anyone do these anymore? I sometimes put an adv in the local paper and get some good regular punts from them. It's a bit of a drag having to describe yourself etc though.
Has anyone tried the Sport of late?

This thread is great thanks everyone
I was also wondering about newspaper advertising - I was feeling brave

The site looks good like it is an agency site. Do you advertise on there and has business come through for you from being on that site?

Hi I've not posted on here before but I'm wondering if there are other sites like adultwork to advertise on where you can check clients feedback. Any suggestions would be appreciated thanks x

Anyone know best places for Cambridgeshire. I’m only on adultwork. I tried viva street but it’s just full of agency girls

Can anyone dm the number for London Escort Guide (LEG)? I keep trying to get through to them but haven't any luck. They just don't bother getting back to me when I've applied to be on their website
Thanks xx

Does anyone advertise on Slixa? It looks good as a directory and is all over twitter but I don't know how good it is for actually getting bookings. I don't know whether clients actually know about it. Have just seen a thread on it but anything recently? Thanks x

As far as I know nobody I know gets bookings from it

Thank you. It doesn't come up when you google independent escorts london or anything which answers my own question really but see so many advertising there.

I've been on Yelp forever but never got a job tilll last week. Any experiences girls? Thanks in advance.

Has any of you lovely ladies been on c.h.e.r.r.y. g.i.r.l.s. and if so got any business from there ?
I am thinking to join as an oucall only. Don't want to waste my money if it is useless. x

I'm not up to date but I was on it and left as it was linked to many garbage Indian websites to raise it's click count on goog. As a result many troll calling from India and UK funnily. Don't know if it's changed. Try it once and see maybe?

I was going to put an ad on Cherry girls but too lazy to go and meet the man who runs it. When I get round to it I'll report back. Try tryst as it's free and had a booking from the site from an American as it's more popular there. That's one in 5 months but its free so why not! For me unfortunately AW is the main place as I don't use twitter like a lot of ladies do.
-
He's a nice person I met him at a public place for verification we had tea and he was a gentleman. I didn't know he was still verifying in person as I had seen quite a few fakes on the site recently.

It was last October we were supposed to meet but I'm never really in West London where he said he was based.

:D I've just come across Tryst this afternoon!! Lo' and behold, I've come to check it out here & there it is, mentioned merely hours ago :) So I'm taking that and your comment as a sign to register. I've been looking at a good few platforms and directories today and that one really stood out for me as it looks great (clean & simple interface) and looks easy to use (verrrrry important for a luddite like moi!!)
Their FAQs cite a 3 month free trial before deciding whether you want to continue being listed with them & if so there are three grades of membership profile - basic, standard, and premium I think...49, 79, 119 are the figures respectively -off the top of my head- BUT it's quoted in dollars so will need to do further homework ....
I'm wondering if that's Aussie dollars, as well ::) as the Tryst creators are also the guys behind Switter (I'm pretty sure I read that somewhere- possibly on here- that Switter was Oz-based...? I could well be wrong like, I often am :))
I've found it's well worth doing a search here before joining/uploading to directories/ profile platforms & I'm SO lovin' that I can check out the consensus of fellow SAAFE members (oxymoron?! ;D) Doing this has probably saved me so much time, frustration & hassle (going by other ladies experiences); being able to easily find which are the resources worth investing my time & effort and likely to send some traffic my way and/or translate into actual bookings. Then there are the sites we'd all do well to avoid for various reasons (ranging from the general pointless- wastes-of -time ::) right the way through to those who perpetuate downright criminal actions :o) and appear to be 'Flash In The Pan'/fookin' clueless/ unprofessional/ unethical etc...including all those wanna-be types who have ultimately ended up proper showing themselves up, in the 'Spamming....' section :D
-
I didnt know there was a paid option, no wonder I'm on the last page! I've only just started using directories that you need a banner for, had a client from local escorts once but that's it. Just adultwork so far but hope that changes.

I tour the West Midlands a lot
AW & Viva St are the best I do a basic add on Viva St and use a differrent number so I can see where the calls are coming from
Viva St you do get a lot of idiots. But you also get the odd lovely diamond customer
Also konmons which is free

I spent a fair amount of time doing new photos Bd and running new adverts. Not sure if I will get any more busier but better trying.
I think some are linked in with others and also. Ie adult zone and adult work.

I used it once a year ago and had nada. Think the ad was up for three months. Maybe longer would have brought in a client, not too sure.

What do you think are te best advertising sites for Scotland, Glasgow specifically

There are as long as your demographic is over 70.
Friday Ad would be the first.

I find enquiries from 'contact mags' a nightmare, as they're usually from blokes who can barely operate a mobile phone, let alone read my profiles/website OK.
-
Most of the papers in London decided they didn't want evil escort ads didn't they? and slowly went down the poo pan along with escort banning Yellow Pages which was buried this year.
Probably Loot still exists but I had a nice half price, 3x3 full colour ad 4 years ago and got a few dodgy guys ringing wanting £30 service from the way down East London not from The City. I think they were massage parlour guys.

Put an ad on Vivastreet this week.I've heard mixed reactions from girls here. I tried a simple £17.99 ad this this week and callers seem to be subnormal. Most barely speak English. Does anyone use vivastreet sucessfully and how?
My procedure for the rest of the week is to cut and block immediately I hear a dopey voice. I have not used a human photo so presume there's a huge troll farm of vivastreet callers ready to pounce on the blandest ad.

i have yet to use it but when i was working at a working flat they used to advertise mostly on vivastreet and although it was very busy but vast majority of clients where cheap, idiots who always tried to bargain 10pounds less and who had poor hygiene. I will try it as an independent soon but as someone who charges 140/hour, I am not sure how well i will do. I will clearly state no discounts. Will see
-
Thanks very much DL. Very interesting good to know it works for some. Not sure any of them can read, so I think you can put free sex and they still ask 'how much.' ;D

Lots of certified mad calls day 1 on Vivastreet for the basic bare bones ad £18, then silence. DL I saw your question on changing postcode. I rung up and immediate wonderful customer service! Lovely lady said it's £25 to change your postcode any time within the 7 day period. Actually it's easier to make another basic ad. But zero work. ???
I try to find my ad and I can't understand Vivastreet at all. You input your search for a specific area and every brothel, pimp and '*uck my *irty *shole for free' ad in the country comes up. So 'Search' seems to be a waste of time and deliberately misleading.
Got a male friend to try it without any comments from me and he said it was horrible presentation of lurid misleading ads, presented him with fake providers and waste of effort doing the 'bogus' search.
By the way, I cannot fault the customer service, so far *5)
This is probably old news, any other experiences ladies?

are yuo sure its 25 to change location within 7 days period? i did ask that once and they quoted me about the same but for a whole month.

I repeated it and I think she said 7 days. ??? Maybe Viva can confirm in their thread.

Viva for me is great for traffic, but low for conversions. I get about 1 client a week. Higher rates so that could be why. I don't mind part time work as escorting isn't my main source of income, but I wish they attracted better clients. Getting 50 calls a day and 1 client is a bit low for what they charge to be seen. I use their 50% off promotions but you're only getting 1 client, you're just about pocketing half, and half on the ad. Not sure if it's worth it but ill try it out a few more weeks. I'd be happy with 2-3 more clients, tops but I'm touring, soon.

how much do you charge

how much do you charge
£200-250. But I've had clients pay full in advance from both viva and other sites so not sure. Maybe it's just London.
-
I spend almost £1000 on advertising seriously thinking its too much. How much do you girls spend?
-
Is that per month Gwen?
£50 a week or £40 if I take Fridays off.
Oh I forgot... about 3 personal websites £300 per year=£6 a week.
So round it up to £60 per week total . :)

Thanks for really good advice. Wondering where to best advertise for Hampshire, Wiltshire, Berkshire and Surrey? And the possibility of free adverts? Any good?

That's in a month seriously need to reduce. I just started escorting xx
-

£1000 a month? Do you have your own site? I think that can be pretty excessive depending on your rate, but I think this topic has to be in other thread.
I think if you spend that much and are not so much busy, then perhaps it's not the amount you spend but the wrong sites you use? Try different ones.
-
also have I mentioned that xescorts is good site?
And acemassage brings me good amount of clicks.
escort.co.uk is good

OK - I've been suspended from AW and therefore entirely reliant on Vivastreet. I had a week of all the bells and whistles (including VIP, Featuring, Multi Repost and Postcode change) and then when that expired I paid £126 for Featuring, Multirepost and a link to my website - no change of location needed.
Here's the thing: The guys on Vivastreet are generally pretty naive. They've just googled and clicked the first search result.
And they're used to some very different experiences on Vivastreet. There are a ton of dodgy adverts on there promising the world and delivering a pretty low standard of service. A lot of these girls are not even making the bookings, themselves. Someone else is handling the phones for them. Often because their English is poor. These punters are used to being able to ask "What's your address" and being given the address straight away and just dropping by. They may have never come across the concept of screening! I can tell you from first-hand experience that they're not put off by visiting girls in a shared flat with a revolving door (don't ask LOL).
A lot of them are looking for cheap, quick service.
That said - when you get a proper client in, they will be generally pretty easy to please. They're just relieved to find someone who is genuine. If you actually look like your photos, speak English, and smile at them they will be over the moon.

Furthermore:
I'm afraid that it really does make a big difference to be both featuring and reposting. I'm in the West Midlands and there are SEVEN PAGES of featured profiles in Birmingham alone. They'd have to scroll past seven pages before finding the top regular advert.
However, with multi-reposting, I find that every time I bump, I tend to get a couple of calls. And, even though I'm in Walsall, I'm getting calls from guys all over the West Midlands/Birmingham. I'm not entirely sure how search works on Vivastreet but I am definitely being found outside of Walsall.
We've been a bit spoiled by AW and not having to pay (or pay much) to advertise. But if you ever find yourself on the wrong side of their arcane rules and capricious enforcement of those rules, you will find that Vivastreet is the only other site that is even a fraction as lucrative as AW.

thanks for all the input! i will try featuring and repost on vivastreet if i increase my advertisement. I know what you mean about the clients. When I was working for managed flats in london it was the exact same pattern you mentioned. The managers and the girls were all eastern european and they had 3-5 girls daily per shift. The manager, madame, pimp, receptionist or however you wanna call it, answers the phone and invite the clients to come without any screening procedure and always the photos used are random photos taken from the internet. The client comes and choses the girl. The manager even lies about the nationality so if client asks what the girls nationalities, before coming, she always said oh today we have greek, french, italian, spanish, etc... So far, other than me, everyone else was EE. The money is 50% for the flat and 50% for the girl. They always advertise on classifieds sites like VS. And services were very cheap in this kinda flats it was 30 for a quickie, 60 for half and 100 for 1h, but sometimes the clients bargained for 50 half and 80 one hour, and its accepted. You can imagine what kinda clients you would get at these prices, many of them lacked hygiene manners. Anyway i only worked like this for 2 weeks during a time i was in the process of getting a new AW profile and verified (i had been suspended earlier). Honestly there're dozens of flats like this in london, i dont know if in other cities as well. But if you ask me, i wouldn't work like that again. I didn't even feel safe having no screen procedure in place. Just "come in" attitude, without caring who the client is. Having said that, if i advertise in VS, i will still charge my normal rates which is 90 for half and 140 for one hour, even if it means getting very few clients from there.
-
They don't let you be explicit about your services and guys don't read anything. They will call you to ask you about rates and services. Have a spiel ready. You can read it to them or have something to copy and paste. Have one with approximate postcode and landmark, one with a list of services offered and rates. I have another that says what I *don't* do. It will save you time and energy.
I had 4 bookings from Vivastreet yesterday and they were all lovely. I just had to talk to a lot of people I didn't want to meet to get them.

Hi all
I generally don't use this forum but I've found it's full of great advice. I've been escorting on and off for over 7 years had a four year gap and have recently returned to it. I advertise mainly on adultwork however I no longer offer penetration, I have been getting about 4 clients a day although today has been dire! What are the best sites to advertise on other than Adult Work.
Lots of love ladies x

what are you offering without penetration? is it massage, is it spankee services? then you should probably should look in directories that are for these services

So my two cents from using both vivastreet and aw is I get more clients from viva hands down. Granted most of the clients from there either have seriously poor hygiene(I send them to the shower straight away) or a lot of them will haggle for £10 to £20 difference ???
But I noticed, when I raised my rates to £150ph/200ph(incall/outcall) it reduced the hagglers even though it didnt totally get rid of them.
To get the best rates for advertising it's best to use their sales agents that will give you 50% off total advertising cost but even with that I'm still paying £115 weekly.
AW clients can be nice or time wasters and since they're spoilt for choice many of them come across like their doing you a favour my coming to you. I've never met more pretentious men.
I have to say though the costs of advertising on aw is cheaper. I've still not figured out how to really promote myself on the platform other than available today and paying for phone number daily which works out to be £6 daily.
If you ladies have any ideas please let me know.

Yes, it is. Most 'referral' traffic to my website comes from Ace.
In terms of actual bookings, now and again I get someone saying they found me on Ace.

Thanks to let me know.
For London:
Ace Massage
FBSM forum
Friday Ads
Locanto
Massage Guide London
Massage Me in London
X Massage
Putting your advert on regular escort directories, like AW also works well as long as you're clear about your boundaries.
But zee best thing is to have your own website and try to rank well on Google.
-
Hi,
Thank you for your answer. I will advertise in one of them and see how it works.

hiya! After FOSTA destroyed the international scene for scorting (and in USA they become really abusives with ladies) and missing Backpage customers, I'm looking where ad my profile. Is frustrating because now I'm in Barcelona and the best websites don't wanna have SPAIN section. :FF
So I have my profile in all the International Escort Guides that I found online, I paid to test some of them and was money wasted 100%
Only City Of Love give me sometimes good customers (dinner date and overnight).
I know the guy of Cherry Girls and he's nice person, honest. I'll try to be listed there and I found the section on his website offering Design and Marketing (hope do SEO), i'll ask about prices for the full pack. Cherry-girls gave me good level of customers, not everyday like Backpage but when I got one was for more than 1 hour and 150-200 pounds.
Eros have UK and Italy but not Spain, the banner for all places is 200€ x week is too expensive to test if it's work or not, I'm thinking to be listed in UK warning that I'm in Barcelona, for the potential solo-travelers.
The rest is interesting to get traffic for your website, but not waste your money, is much better pay for a good SEO to get better position in your area and Google marketing. Sometimes can bring you a customer and is ok, for a free service.

Wow, Dylan, thank you for posting the wealth of links!
-
Does anyone have recommendations on the best sites to advertise in for working in the North East?
I’m setting up my adult work as we speak but what other sites would be good for genuine potential clients? And a lot of them.
Sorry if it’s already been asked :)
-
Hi, what are the best sites to advertise on for London (The City area)?
-
Hello girls
what are the best directory to use

Hi, what are the best sites to advertise on for London (The City area)?
yes, I was asking myself the same thing. Any pointers besides AW?
thanks!

I'm not aware of anything specifically for The City

Hi salty :-) I was talking about London "in general". problem with me is I don't use AW nor Viva so was asking for any other good directories that bring "actual" clients.
:D
-
Hi Ana, I gotcha ;D! Can't think of any... ??? My Viva experience was the pits so were in same boat on that one.

Same boat lol

Anyone actually use Yelp? Thinking to take myself off as never had a job from it in 3 years. It looks fabulous, nice free ad, with fake address (office block mixed use like Re.gus) and pushpin showing my location and website link. I just got asked where I am. Like all that info isn't enough?
Not one of them has ever clicked my website. All newby, milk toast callers.
-
I got told that RubRatings.com is really big in America now. It's great if you are doing massage over there. However, I got told by a client though so don't know how much business you could get from it as a service provider.
-
I advertise everywhere.Key getting the word out about business getting paying customers keep business going..Independendent and no guaranteed hours.
-
I advertise on Viva Street for around £12 per week, but this week I upgraded which cost me over £50. Had NO increase in calls from that upgrade - won't be doing that again!! I think VS are fairly rubbish. Even if you do upgrade, you are way down the page - they should really have two columns in my view (just checked - I'm number 32 on the list!!!!!) But, even then, I do wonder if it's actually worth it.

I think with viva st the bumping your ads up every hr is the best option to do

Hmmm, Ok thanks Paris, I might try that one. Will report back.

Adultwork.com
I have found to be the best :D
it's essentially free if you set up a free private gallery worth viewing
-
Hey Girls,
I get most of my work through Viva st. AW is to far in on the google search, but I do ok enough to get by i suppose. I do miss backpage xx

I'm not sure you should base AW on the Google search rankings though - a lot of punters just go straight to the site and use its search function.

Be great if all sex workers left AW then we would see how they felt about treating us with some decency. Without us they can't operate. But that just ain't going to happen.

The are many other sites that we can advertise on for free.
escortdirectory
Adult zone
Adultseek
selectanescort
to name a few, just not sure how much business they generate.
Maybe if everyone advertised on these sites as well as AW it would weaken there dominance on the market and force them to treat escorts with respect.
-
I can vouch for UKadultzone I get bookings most days from it
-
I also get bookings from UK AZ. If you go to AW and search for escorts in your town, and compare the amount to other directories - other directories have more escorts listed. Or they do in my town.
-
I can vouch for UKadultzone I get bookings most days from it
where are you based? i get no bookings from there at all.And do you pay?
-
I can vouch for adultzone. I get a few calls from there and I don’t even pay.
-
Discreet Lady, do you bump your advert to the top of the listings? You can do this for free. I bump mine twice a day when I'm working.
-
where are you based? i get no bookings from there at all.And do you pay?
I’m based in Teesside, I don’t pay but I do update it regularly, maybe once a day when I’m working
-
Make sure you verify with ukadultzone and switch to On the days you are working.
-
Lush, I haven't verified with UKAZ and am still at the top of the free listings. There are usually three paying advertisers above me. Why do you think we should verify? Thanks.
-
I don't know it just says on their site we should lol.
-
Discreet Lady, do you bump your advert to the top of the listings? You can do this for free. I bump mine twice a day when I'm working.
no i dont, didn't know nyou can do this in adultzone
-
DL, just update your profile. I add or delete an extra kiss. ;D
-
I don't know it just says on their site we should lol.
Ahhh lol. But you don't have to.
-
has anyone tried putting themselves on tryst.link? It looks like a big and fancy site... (?)
Second question: is anyone getting clients from "City of love.com"?
-
Been on there for a month, not sure if I get any traffic, more from other sites usually adultseek
-
Cecilia, is Adultseek free?
-
No but only £20 per month/city premium not sure for non-premium. Googling for escorts in the areas I cover as came out top 5. You can have one city/town as premium but be listed in others and like AZ you bump your advert with small changes whenever you want.
-
Sounds good, thankyou.
-
Cecilia, is Adultseek free?
yes
-
The best free ones that i get bookings from daily are, in order of real bookings:
1. Selectanescort
2.Escort Directory
3. AdultZone
4. Adultseek
Semi- free
1. Adultwork
Sites that are worthless
Visa street ( trash punters & boundary pushers)
Punternet
-
Thanks China Girl for the above. I spend a tenner on Viva Street a week for the basic and I do get some good bookings from tehre. But I tried the upgrades and found to be a waste of money. But then I am older and I think I cater for the guys doing an actual search for older escorts. I also advertise on EDUK (my God, had trouble with them recently regarding two payments of mine that went missing -n I had to threaten legal action and finally they have given me my advertising plus a month's free). I didn't realise they have a free option.

what website is eduk?
-
Sorry, Escort Directory UK.
-
I'm just creating a profile on Adultseek and you do need to pay £20 per month to be listed. There isn't a free option. Will pay that as seems reasonable.
-
Oh no, I correct myself. I now have a free advert on Adultseek.
-
Only pay if you want feature and similar to adultzone you can update to get higher on the listing.

Hey there ladies
I’ve just registered after finding this forum today. I’ve been escorting for around 10 years but for the past 7 years only part time. After a recent change in circumstances I need to increase my bookings so I’ve been researching the best places to advertise, and I found your wonderful forum. 😊 I’ve been reading through all the posts and wow – thank you for all the info. It’s so incredibly helpful to know what is / isn’t working for others. :-*
After the sad demise of Backpage :( I was wondering if anyone gets any work from Bedpage.com or ebackpage.com. I’m thinking they are probably scam sites as they are almost identical. It’s a shame as I used to get some great dinner date and overnight bookings from American punters travelling to the UK who found me on Backpage.
I do currently use AW, ukadultzone, punternet & punterlink which seem to provide most of my enquiries. I think AW and Punterlink seem to be the best but I’m not verified on AW and I don’t really want to be, does it make that much of a difference?

Xescort of London is good but to stand out and get putners verify your profile so says pics verified and to buy the add ons be on first page. They are same people who do escort scotland - escort ireland etc.
They have customer service live chat for help they are helpful.

Eventually everybody will have to verify on AW. I would do it while ready as I’ve heard of others losing profile then losing a few days work trying to get it back on.

Haven't even tried to register with AdultWork after learning about their verification process especially for us non-British reaching the level of ridiculous. I'm not prepared to give them my real name and passport number, sure they don't follow GDPR.

Merry Xmas all.
Hoping for some touring advertising Intel - I'm not London based and would love some input to steer me in the right direction
I'm touring for London for 4 days in January (I'm from Scotland where I have a lower rate AW persona)
Besides my personal website and Twitter, where would be another good spot to place up a advertisement at the 250ph rate?
I know this rate wouldn't work too well on aw, but it's worked well on Twitter for me before.

It all depends where you are based try locanto or vivastreet if you can handle the TW x

cherry girls, maybe london-independents.

I'm a mature escort advertising outcalls in London
My experiences with different platforms -not necessarily true for you
Directories that are more 'high end' prices
London Escort Guide I tried the independents section advertising for 2 months. Very expensive for what it is - and not effective.
Cherry Girls some super, multiple-hour bookings then dead as a dodo. Maybe my rates are too low for that directory. The girls advertising there are elite £250 or more an hour. I think ‘courtesan’ type marketing.
City of Love -its good for me. I got 3 multiple-hour bookings a month from American, Asian or Arabic clients. These are not local clients but international clients on business trips/summer vacation.
Eros London - I used to advertise here because it attracted polite International clients. The bookings were enjoyable and easy. But it has slowed down a lot in recent years for London and they require ID. Again, courtesan type marketing like Cherry Girls.
Directories that advertise low -to- mid price ranges
VivaStreet I upgraded to the expensive premium featured ad -lots of TW but if you do incalls and priced at £80-£100, you will do well on there. I heard some girls advertise solely on VivaStreet and they are very busy. People generally want cheap and quickies on VivaStreet.
AdultSeek - terrible. Not worth the time listing for me.
EscortPromo - bad, not enough traffic
UEscort -They have high visibility for London Escorts. Some London girls were busy on this site because they did incalls and had lower prices. I had a terrible experience offering outcalls - only 0.2% of leads converted to bookings for me.
Ace Massage -not too bad. I get 2 local client bookings on there in a month and they are repeat clientele.
UK Skodda -shockingly bad. 0 bookings.
Kommons London - 1 booking a month ballpark figure with the free package. Enquiries and bookings increased when I upgraded the advertising.
FridayAd - 1 booking a month if I am lucky.
EuroGirlsEscorts - not good at all for me.
LolaEscorts - just not worth listing on there. Lacks traffic and placement.
HolidaySexGuide - rubbish results for me.
Gumtree - waste of time; I placed a discreet advert for visiting massage services (just generic photo of a massage oil bottle and towels) and got cheapskates offering £45 an hour.
Craigslist - waste of time; I used creative wording to get around their rules, and still got my ad suspended.
Others non-escort specific:
What’s Your Price - got a few paid dates from this site. The men there are cheap and deluded it is a dating service. The price is for dinner companionship only in a public place. I never go to the client’s home/hotel.
Seeking Arrangement - got a few clients here. They are cheap and some clients from AW; the men are clingy and text you all day long.
PantyDeal -I listed my worn panties and sent them to buyers in the UK and Europe; managed to sell 2-3 pairs of worn panties/thongs every week priced at £15 each item. Helped me to get rid of old panties I no longer wear.
Sofia Gray -site for selling used panties. Not as busy as PantyDeal for me.
ScentedPansy -good site for selling panties and selling video clips/Kik or Skype shows if you are traveling to the USA. Most clients are in the USA.
Old directories I miss:
Loot London
BackPage
Adult Guide To London
The best advertising if you’re staying in one location long term is SEO, as other people have mentioned. I always ask where my clients find me and they say ‘the internet,’ which is not helpful. I doubt they will be using escort directories as much in another 10 years time, it would be Google search.

Places to advertise massage in London:
AceMassage
MassageRepublic
FSBM co uk
VivaStreet (Massage section)
Yelp London
MassageMeInLondon
GumTree (Health & Beauty category, under massages)
Massage.Me.UK
Friday-Ad
I had good results with the Kommons 1 month basic membership for £29.99 and AceMassage gold membership for 3 months £100.
If you have a massage only website that does not mention escort services or sexually explicit language, you could also try Google Adwords, bid on 'London massage' and 'London full body massage...London hot oil massage therapist' keywords.

Philipa
Thank you that was very helpful!

I thought it was me but it is absolutely dead compared to last month, nobody looking at my photos on AW or vids no matter how many new one's I post. I wonder why those are the worst months??
I had no bookings from AW this week. Not a sausage. It is that bad. In contrast, Kommons directory gave me 6 bookings this week. I don’t know what is happening to AW, a large percentage of the punters outside the UK doesn’t even know this site exists. Many of the international clients flying to London can’t be arsed to trawl through AW site; they just go for whatever they find on first page of google within their price range. That’s bad news as far as I’m concerned because my advertising costs will go up a lot.
-
Im seeing a lot of other site names being shown but none of them have the review status like AW. How can we girls know we will be safe, those who are with these sites can you tell me? and do you pay?
-

Do you think a man is safe because he's on AW?
-
Do you think a man is safe because he's on AW?
I'm not that naive to think that they are, and I certainly wasn't suggesting that. I was in no way intimating security is guaranteed on AW, I was merely raising a question, whether ladies felt safe on such sites mentioned without reviews of clientele, generally for my own purposes as I was considering using other sites. Nobody can count themselves as 'safe' whatever site it is, but one would certainly feel somewhat comforted by reviews written on clients positively or negatively and I am sure a large amount of clients would feel the same. I know I would rather not go to a website that has nothing about the person I am meeting at all and no reviews.
I think you misinterpreted my question!!!
-

This is a good question about the safety of using non-AW sites.
You can screen them with a quick phone call; listen to their voice, manner, and choice of words. I’m sure you know how to screen. Trust yourself you can do this. Your ear gets trained after a while for anything that sounds strange.
There are some amazing clients without reviews; if they sound respectful and genuine then I book them in. Yes, nothing is 100%. That’s the risk with every site like you say, AW included.
-
Merged with a more relevant thread, although any one of the many threads on screening would have done for the last few too.
I know I would rather not go to a website that has nothing about the person I am meeting at all and no reviews.
Well given that most of the stuff 'about' anybody on AW is made up and the rest is largely bollocks designed to get positive feedback in return, I don't understand this either but then I was working before it existed and I take bookings by phone even when they do find me on there so I rarely if ever even know if they have an account. I have ads on so many sites (including my own) it necer even crosses my mind.
What you're saying is that you trust flattering comments made by random prossies you don't know and written with a vested interest in getting similar comments back more than your own instincts? If this is really the case then you need to take a hard look at how you're screening - we have many a woeful tale on here about some truly appalling behaviour from some seriously unpleasant people with flawless feedback. If you think something is off when you deal with them then it is, and no amount of 'reviews' makes any difference to that.

I posed a question, I'm getting the feeling I shouldn't have done so? :FF ??? in relation to the last part of your paragraph, again.....I am not naive and do not rely fully on comments left on AW for obvious reasons. I asked about other sites to advertise!!!!!! I have seen comments left about various guys on AW, one particular guy's reviews said he was gorgeous and when he came was horrible, bad teeth, breath and other odd features about his body I wouldn't care to mention here but disgusting. Of course I trust my instincts every time..I've taken guys with zero feedback or loads of feedback and speak to every one beforehand and I wholeheartedly trust my instinct. Unfortunately even without being on AW, I have had reason to, for the reasons you have mentioned and not within the sex work industry.
I don't want to be cynical and negative about everything because that is not me now, I just posed a question.

I've jumped on VivaStreet again and it is crazy. In London, the premium posting option costs £17.99, I upgraded to featured 7 days £99.99, highlight ad 7 days for £29.99 and that is £147.97 for 7 days posting in London. On day 1 my dashboard showed that 40 people viewed my profile but no one called.
On day 2 my dashboard showed 66 views; got 4 bookings, easily paid for the advertising cost.
This advertising site is crazy. One day nothing, the next you are busy.
I also searched my ad and it is literally buried under a pile of other premium featured ads.
London Vivastreet is saturated but it is an expensive advertising site for a reason.
Also, there is a new site called EscortRankings UK. It has lifted many profiles from around the Internet and writing false reviews. The reviews on there look like touts or company webmaster wrote them....so bizaare.

Thanks for the heads up for the site lifting profiles. I have found my details on there. Time to get my details removed from that site.
It is funny as I am a black female they advertised me as Caucasian they are really sloppy with their crap site.

They probably want to become the biggest escort reviews site in the UK. Some of the reviews are shocking, one said "i was doing her bareback she is amazing."

I just received an email from Escort Directory UK saying they are slashing their fees by 50%. I usually pay £50 a month here and there so not a bad deal.

hiya ladies,
Quick question: has anyone been getting business from twitter? Not NOW (before lockdown that is). I have a twitter account where I post once a week that has brought me ZERO clients. how do the successful twitter ladies do it? what's the secret?
thanks!

I had a few clients from Twitter - not many, so not a big success but I would say:
- If someone follows you, send them a short personal message (engaging in further comms is pointless but just a short message is a nice touch).
- Engage with fellow sex workers (apart from building a friendly network it also gets you in the loop and increases visibility).
- Use appropriate hashtags.
- To create nice visuals you can use Canva (basic version is free).

You need to be posting more than once a week for a start. And you need to be genuinely engaging with content posted by other SWs, whether it's a funny meme or general discussion about SW. Clients will get involved sometimes or just see you engaging with someone they follow and will come and check you out. It's give and take, you can't expect people to come to you without putting any work in. But I've had a surprising number of clients via twitter (more than any ad sites I've paid for) and many of them are drawn to the fact that they a ) can tell that I'm a real person due to the bts selfies and insights and commentary on plants/art/musics/humour and b ) because of all that, can tell whether we'd get on well.
Ads all start to look the same after a while, so even if someone found you on tryst or AW and can then check out your twitter, it will help them to decide on you vs. someone else who has no social media 'portfolio'
Do watch out for the reply guys though. There's plenty of men on twitter who will comment on everything you post and want to DM you with no intention of booking or gifting you.

Hi everyone,
I was just wondering if there is any transgender/transvestite women in this forum that can advise me on the best websites to use whilst working in London. I do know of the existence of Birchplace. In people’s experience does it produce a lot of business? I see you need to pay 60 credits to top up your advertisement to number 1. In your experience is it worth the 60 credits. Any other suggestions for websites to use would be so helpful.
Thanks

I have my own website and I also advertise on numerous free sites, Adult seek, Adult zone, Escort directory, Euro-escorts..etc. I stopped using AW and visa street some time ago with no regrets or loss in business.

Which Eduk?
Escortdirecrory-uk?

Which Eduk?
Escortdirecrory-uk?
Yes, with a dot com on the end of the address you wrote. They have an available now button which lasts an hour then you click it again for another hour. I wish they just had the usual available today tab though.

Warning UKAdultzone have whacked up their fees for the ability to link to your own website.
Back pre-lockdown was paying £18 per month (which they claimed was a reduction from a higher price), now they are charging £40 per month for this (claiming reduced from £60).
Absolutely gobsmacked when I chose this and realised. Contacted their customer service who explained the £40 is a reduction, no it is not it's more than double previous price, 'Oh I meant reduction on new full price of £60'.
They have refunded 20 of the 40 to me, tried to tell me they are the same or cheaper than other websites - to which of course I quoted a few directories which are cheaper. For me it's the combined cost, yes I receive quite a few enquiries from UKAZ, but if it's going to be £40 I can mention my website to enquiries myself - something I do anyway because they don't see it.

FFS that is bloody awful. It's sooo expensive to advertise escort services. I always thought "Sharon" was fair with prices but that's ridiculous. It's the ones charging us to advertise who make the money. Look at what VS charge. Even if you upgrade you can still be on the second page cos they only have the one column. At that price they should have two columns.

Yes Sharon was is the name given.

My newspaper ads used to cost me £80-£100 per week years ago. Whilst I won't be paying UKAZ (or VS) because all I ever got from them were very poor quality enquiries with a very few genuine bookings that weren't worth the headache of dealing with the rest, I couldn't get worked up about paying <£10 per week.
It's not even a half hour booking a month for most people, unlike Vivastreet and their page-obscuring pop ups, shite service, ever-changing rules on content and wall to wall fake/pimp ads for God knows how much per month with all the addons.

I stuck an advert up a few weeks ago as a result of their email, apart from a location issue now fixed not had my problems. They seem very active on twitter, have retweeted a few of my tweets which when camming is not a bad thing.

Google escorts in X (your town/city) and see which sites come up on the first couple of pages but especially on page one and list yourself on them where possible.

Funny that you mention this site as my friend who is an ex working girl told me she used to use this site many years ago but I hadn’t heard of it before she told me about it earlier this year so I judge it to be shit for that reason alone, I have been in this industry for too long and only heard about it in 2020 so says it all to me. For me then AW is the best one, for now anyway.

I have never heard it all these years but now I keep seeing it. So thought some ladies on here have had any experience with it.

There is another one has anyone used bedpage dot com ? x

Surely though, if they don't come up in search, they're no good?

In the UK then imo AW is the best.

I have recently seen a big increase in bookings via Ukadultzone.com and that's just with a free profile. Plus the owner is an ex SW so she really appreciates our needs, unlike aw and vs.

Places to advertise massage in London:
AceMassage
MassageRepublic
FSBM co uk
VivaStreet (Massage section)
Yelp London
MassageMeInLondon
GumTree (Health & Beauty category, under massages)
Massage.Me.UK
Friday-Ad
I had good results with the Kommons 1 month basic membership for £29.99 and AceMassage gold membership for 3 months £100.
If you have a massage only website that does not mention escort services or sexually explicit language, you could also try Google Adwords, bid on 'London massage' and 'London full body massage...London hot oil massage therapist' keywords.
Thank you Philipa that is very helpful, I had a few bookings from Gumtree (massage therapist section) even through a lot of TW xx

Hello lovely people,
I read through the message board quite extensively, this seems like the most fitting thread.
I signed up to UKAdultZone and I just cannot figure out the site. IS it just me? I'm trying desperately to branch away from AW. Well maybe not away, but expand my horizons if you will. Every other site I've come across I just don't seem to be able to get on the pages or get any messages. Am I being impatient? I'm certainly not computer illiterate but man I'm struggling to figure out these websites.
Would like to thank to ladies who have already commented as I have expanded my list of websites to check out! So will be setting some time tomorrow to do that! But just wondered if anyone else is having this problem with not being able to actually work their way around these websites?

Are you using your phone or a PC/laptop? I actually find the AW menu structure very counter-intuitive on a desktop, but much easier to navigate on the phone app. UKA works best for me on a desktop however. Vivastreet I prefer the mobile interface.
Viva has been getting me a lot of enquiries recently, more than AW. However, 70% of my actual bookings still come from AW, as Viva has a much higher proportion of TWs.

I have used both, my mobile and my PC. I'm an avid gamer so my PC is fairly decked out minus a couple of upgrades that I want to do. AW wasn't the easiest but I figured it out quickly enough. One example for AdultZone is I cant even figure out how to select a specific picture as a profile picture. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong ???
-
Hi PC. In UKAZ you can edit your profile and select a gallery photo you want as your main picture. There's a tickbox. I'm thinking the site isn't displaying properly on your device for some reason. You can also email Sharon who runs that site as she's helpful. Something doesn't sound right your end. 🤔

Thank you very much! I'll fire up my old laptop and maybe try accessing it from that way and giving it another go. AW has been really good for me, but I'm trying to expand my horizons. I'll have another root through the website to find the tickbox
-
That's ok. Let us know if you manage to get it sorted.

I figured out what I was doing wrong!!!! I feel like I've had a total light bulb moment and I am going to consider this a productive day as a result haha.
After re-visiting the site for the hundredth after the tick box comment, I could not find it. I was beginning to wonder if there was something up with my PC. I started reading the home page where it made a comment about laws changing so public pictures need to be clothed and discreet, etc. It only then hit me that I had not yet posted any public pictures as I had been prioritizing getting my private pictures stocked up with lots of content. Well duh-doy I couldn't find a tick box as you can only set PUBLIC pictures as a profile picture.
I blurred my face, set up a couple of public pics and wham, bam, thank you ma'am there it was in all it's glory. The elusive tick box!
Feeling like a bit of a dunce but, I have successfully added a profile picture! Hopefully now I will start getting some emails and content sales. I'd like to thank you guys for commenting and taking the time even though it was my own stupidity holding me back. Hopefully I can give you a giggle and help others who are coming across the same user errors as me! ;D
-
That's good to know PC! Wouldn't have occurred to me as I usually do non-nudes for my profile pics so haven't come across this. I'm sure your post will help others :)
And EnglishAmy is right, Sharon who runs UKA is an ex working girl and very responsive and helpful.
-
AHH that's great, glad you got it sorted. 😀
-
I just gone through various websites, coz atm AW brings me only TW.. and I just discovered ukadultzone and I was checking ladies there, to have an idea of that site and I'm noticing most of them have bareback listed on their enjoy lists..
So I don't know if I want to register on that one as probably many punters think that is an bareback site? Or I'm just overreacting ???
Has anyone advertised there recently? Thanks :-*
-
I've been on that site for a few years but I get most of my work through AW. I don't offer BB though so maybe that's why haha. No, seriously, I've never really looked at the other profiles on there so don't know what people are offering.

I think a lot of profiles have just ticked everything on the likes list. Spotted one in my area who has written "I do everything except anal and bareback" yet has both listed on her services.
I have had bookings from UKA but not until I paid for premium. It's pretty reasonable for a month and usually brings me at least 1 booking so easily pays for itself.
-
Then I am overreacting about that site. I wanted to do a profile on punterlink or punternet and they want 2months in advance payment and it's £190 something 😲😲😲
I can't afford it right now. LoL 😂 but my question is.. has anyone tried those 2 sites recently? Thanks ladies!!
-
Really the only way to test these things is to test them, but you can certainly find out publicly available information about how much traffic each site gets.
Alexa is the best known site for analysing market share, audience engagement, keywords, and traffic.
Punternet ranks 1,663,523 globally - that doesn't tell you how much actual traffic it gets, but this means that there are 1.6million websites which get more traffic. Alexa estimates that the average visitor only visits one page.
Punterlink has a much better ranking of 669,201, and it gets an average of 2 page views per visitor per day. Still not brilliant.
UKA does slightly better than Punterlink at 525,009 and gets 3 page views per visitor
Adultwork is obviously the big dog here. Ranking 47,010 globally. Now remember that AW doesn't even rank on Google for most search terms, so the majority of those visitors are just going straight there. Visitors view just under 10 pages each and spend 10 mins on the site, compared with under 2 minutes on the others above.
Like I said - these figures don't necessarily equate to bookings, they are simply traffic.

Hi, does anyone have any experience with putting a free profile on the City of Love site?
I filled out everything and got to the final page, but have had to email them so it can be manually approved/activated - I haven't had any response yet, not even an automated one, so wondered if they do usually take a few days to reply?
Feeling a bit impatient :)

I have one :)
I vaguely remember it being approved and fairly quickly, but then I had a paid listing (which I'm not bothering with atm since I'm not working much). I was getting decent bookings with the paid listing but I can't really comment on the free one although mine should still be up - I remember I did have to put one of their banners on the front page of my site, too.
-
^Thanks.
Yes, I've also posted their banner - I'd be open to the paid option at some point but thought I'd just try the banner exchange for the next month, things being as they are.
-
Has anyone got a big list of free sites to advertise on? I don’t want to pay to advertise anymore because business is way too slow at the moment. I want to keep my expenses to a minimum. Some free sites I’ve posted on and I have not seen in this list are;
crazyoz.com
ukclassifieds.co.uk
hello.co.uk
adultadlist.co.uk
locanto.com
Has anyone got a complete list of free sites?

I haven't advertised on Viva Street for ages until this week where I paid the ten pounds for 7 days to be at the back of the profiles and my God, I'm getting weird texts. My profile says no texts but I'm getting about 25 a day. Got guys asking if they can be my boyfriend and all the usual rubbish such as asking me if I can do a quickie for 30. But this morning Iv'e had one twat asking if I can chip off his dick for a grand and kind enough to tell me he would then just leave. Don't get this amount of texts from other websites.

Ceasing my advert on VS has been a huge relief, although occasional decent enquiries are received the volume of other contact in response to that ad is just too much.
-
I'm absolutely thinking the same.
-
Actually I wonder if that's legal.
Officer he asked me to do it.
-
I market my ads everywhere.I want to get the word out about my business
-
I'm back on VS and the blizzard of texts isn't as bad as it was. Not sure if I get any work from it because I use the same number. If I was organised I'd put a different number up, but I'm not, soooo.....😁.
-
Quick question: what would you think is the most important international directory at the moment? The one that attracts American business crowd and travellers?
Thanks!
-
any thoughts on the website Kommons ? I've heard mixed reviews about it
-
With VS do they still offer the option of using their own mobile number for the clients which is expensive to use. Perhaps only the serious ones would text then.
-
Following adultwork insisting we all verify -I'm going to have to advertise elsewhere. Maybe I'm paranoid but I simply do not feel comfortable with them having that amount of information about me. So with regards to advertising - I'm based in the South East - I've used Friday Ad successfully in the past. I'm going to repost my ad in there. I'm going to give Ace Massage a go. Can anyone particularly recommend anywhere else ?
-
Can anybody recommend sites which are good for south-east/east-anglia and London please?
Thank you

Can you list your phone number on there or is it just an email service?
-
You can list your number.
-
You have to pay a credit a day to list your number, avail today is 4 credits, you have to top up credits every 6 weeks otherwise you can't use the email system. But ive had a few top up bookings from the site, i just use the display my number feature, dont use any of the featured or avail today advertising

So if I don't buy credits to display my number does that mean no one can send me an email/message either?
Clients can't see my personal email address on the site can they? I assumed that was just for number/ profile verification by the site?

Its an internal email system like aw. They dont display your email address u sign up with or website. Just your phone number that u need to pay to display. You can earn credits by adding private gallery . I think when you first sign up they give u so many weeks free to answer emails. If u dont too up credits within 6 week period a message pops up saying to top up credits. You recieve the msgs but cant reply to them a weird website. But not much competition on there and for sake of putting a tenner of credits on i picked up a 2 hour booking the other week. Not mega busy but ok for extra bookings here and there

Ive been experimenting with advertising recently . Punternet i tried for 3 months (im not London based) and didnt get one single booking!

Thanks FR, I was thinking of trying VS but have heard that its a bit of a nightmare with timewasters
-
VS used to be excellent a good few years ago but then it went to the dogs.
However I would still consider it now and again if I had more availability which I don't.
-
Has anybody thought of trying Escortinghub.com. It's completely free to advertise and they often promote you on their Twitter page. Worth a shot I would say.

Anyone had success using kommons in Central London?
-
Tried to use search function but couldn’t find my answer.
For those that have signed up for adultseek, I notice it you can go premium for £20 a month.. I wondered how it shows up on your card? I share my bank account. So trying to see if I need to go sort another card to use.
Thank you.

It come up as CRD adultseek.com
-
If you are an escort based in 1 area then I would recommend on my own personal experience is a defiantly getting your own website

can anyone give good info about where best to advertise? I don't work that often (maybe a couple of times a week) and AW is just so difficult to use and deal with plus it's quite expensive it seems.
Where does anyone else advertise? I also thought about having a website but don't know if it will be worth the money it will cost and I'm not techy enough to make my own!

you should give us more information which UK location you live in as there are sites for Scotland, NW UK, london etc.

Im also quite keen to advertise on a new website and Im based in the East Mids. I have looked at the initial post on this thread but some of the sites dont look very attractive lmao. I currently advertise on AW and UK Adult Zone but there was some changes made to UKAZ which has messed up everyones profile, I havent been contacted via that site in nearly 3 weeks and VS is just a headache. I had over 50 calls and texts last weekend and only 1 appointment so I am looking to branch out and try and find a website that is decent so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

I'm in South London, any directories or places to advertise other than AW?
thanks Laura x

I do gangbangs/bukkake parties now and again and find them great for networking and meeting new (potential) clients.

I did a search on here but the answers are a few years old.
Has anyone used it, is it worth advertising on there?

Hey girls, does anyone know the best websites to advertise in Manchester ?
I’ve been using viva street, kommons and skkoka and has been completely dead.
Is adult work more popular here ? Any suggestions ? Or is it that Manchester in general is kinda quiet for work?

In UK 80% of work you will get with adultwork

With all its faults Adultwork as the PP said
I advertised with VS once for a week (during the AW pre xmas drama) and it was non stop TW

Only just noticed AW have hidden my link without telling me.
Links to personal websites can only be displayed on AW if you pay to advertise your number and/or display an AW banner on your site? If you do not do either of these, then this is why your link has been removed.
If you do one or both of these things, contact AW and ask them why they have removed your link.
In fact I might start texting customers with a link to it for more info
Good idea, maybe set up an auto-responder to include your website details
Looking for the best sites to display my Web page link if anyone can help please.
In terms of advertising, plenty of great advice on this thread. Additionally, do some googling using ‘independent escort’ your area and see what directories come up. Look at your SEO too as this is only benefit your search result placement in Google.

Links to personal websites can only be displayed on AW if you pay to advertise your number and/or display an AW banner on your site? If you do not do either of these, then this is why your link has been removed.
If you do one or both of these things, contact AW and ask them why they have removed your link.
Good idea, maybe set up an auto-responder to include your website details

AW sometimes remove links if their bot or person can't find their banner within 1 click, this is sometimes because they've not scrolled down the page a little. Happened to me a few times, each time they sent an email to inform. Quick live chat cleared it up last time, but was annoying. I had placed their banner at the top of the list on my home page.

I was interested in advertising on London escort guide but it seems that in order to register you have to have a website, does anyone know if a AW profile link works as a website ?
-
No, because AW isn’t *your* own personal website, it’s an advertising platform.
As an aside, and having looked at LEG, it seems heavily skewed in favour of escort agencies - most of their ‘hot 100’ are agency girls which suggests agency bots are clicking on their girls’ links in order to keep their rankings high.

Hi my loves , I’m a newbie to escorting and was wondering where is the best site to use in London ?
I’m also open to new friends in the industry x
Message me :-*

Hi Ameliaa,
Welcome to the site. This thread is a good place to start, so read through it thoroughly. It is also worth doing your own research too using google to see sites which rank highly - if you are offering the more typical services, men can be lazy and tend to stick to whichever sites appear on the first search page.
It is worth nothing that some platforms are directories which means you can only advertise on it if you have your own website.
On a related note, if you are new to escorting, please do read the main SAAFE site, particularly regarding safety practises, screening and well, everything really. Be sure to work out your boundaries and limits, and refuse to budge. As a newbie, you will attract a lot of time wasters and randoms in the first few weeks who are keen to try it on.

Does anybody advertise on Tryst ? What's your experience with it ?

Really the only way to test these things is to test them, but you can certainly find out publicly available information about how much traffic each site gets.
Alexa is the best known site for analysing market share, audience engagement, keywords, and traffic.
Punternet ranks 1,663,523 globally - that doesn't tell you how much actual traffic it gets, but this means that there are 1.6million websites which get more traffic. Alexa estimates that the average visitor only visits one page.
Punterlink has a much better ranking of 669,201, and it gets an average of 2 page views per visitor per day. Still not brilliant.
UKA does slightly better than Punterlink at 525,009 and gets 3 page views per visitor
Adultwork is obviously the big dog here. Ranking 47,010 globally. Now remember that AW doesn't even rank on Google for most search terms, so the majority of those visitors are just going straight there. Visitors view just under 10 pages each and spend 10 mins on the site, compared with under 2 minutes on the others above.
Like I said - these figures don't necessarily equate to bookings, they are simply traffic.
Can you help me please, what is UKA?
Thank you advance

Has anybody tried the directory City of Love ? If yes, how was it ? (it's very expensive)

I used it years ago but only the free listing so never got much from it.
-
I did a search on here but the answers are a few years old.
Has anyone used it, is it worth advertising on there?
https://www.britishescortsdirectory.co.uk/
Works in certain areas around England, especially Midlands but not London. Ended up deleting it and made no difference to my calls

Yeah I'd like to know that too. Seen it. Have you tried it yet?
-

I had a few good bookings from it when I had a paid ad up - I let it run out when we had to stop working and I keep meaning to put it back up. I'd give it a go for a few months (as ever, the first month is for the timewasters).
Yeah I'd like to know that too. Seen it. Have you tried it yet?
I started posting an ad on Tryst, and then got to the point where they demand advertisers state their pronouns (with no N/A option on the drop down, so mandatory - this was confirmed when I emailed them) and since I found this objectionable, I didn't bother finishing it. It's all very right on (and more than a little quaint in places, as anybody who was on sex work activism mailing lists back around 2009 will confirm) but I can't see it appealing to the sort of punters I want and a whizz through the other ads on there confirmed this.
That said, obviously everybody's different and what works for some won't work for others; I think they give you a month for free so anybody who's happy with their terms may as well give it a go :)

I tried to create an add with city of love twice over the last few months. It said that you can create a free advert if you put their exchange banner on your site, but despite following their instructions meticulously they would not allow me the free ad and would only publish mine if I paid the full price for it.
I hate these kind of sneaky clickbait tactics and therefore won't give them my money on principle. Even though I would have probably paid for the ad straight away if there was never any mention of a free one. Idiots.

Yeah, that site is also bad because there is no customer service email. Lots of other sites have it. Had problems with this site before & didn't have how to contact.

Update on Tryst : have heard so many good feedbacks from girls about it, that it gives them quite a lot of bookings (especially from American clients), etc.
However, for me it's been a complete fail so far (first of all, it's MEGA complicated to get your profile up on there, like I'm not exaggerating, it took me about 2 months for them to approve my profile (after I sent them all the ID documents possible and so many selfies to prove I'm genuine (because every time, "they couldn't clearly identify my age and details" when I can assure my details and date of birth were literally crystal clear on the pictures) anyways so when my profile finally got approved (after I got mad at them on email for messing me around), I was really looking forward to seeing these "numerous" bookings but after a good few weeks (I also paid for one of their premium package that is supposed to make your add more visible), all I got was nothing except a couple of serial timewasters enquiries that led nowhere.
I got the feeling that this website is still fairly new and more popular in North America/Australia and also more suited for high priced girls who do FMTY/long bookings and who advertise on twitter (I might be mistaken but this is how I feel about it) so in the end, not so sure it's worth advertising on there.

Am really surprised it was so complicated to get your profile approved, and that it took so long.
I thought about suggesting Tryst to you, but was unconvinced it would it would garner new business for you. I cannot tell you why though, but feel validated given your experience.
Tryst is four or five years old, I think, and relatively well-established here now. However, their target audience was never the UK. I do not think it ever will be, (and think those who tour the US and work international will probably find Tryst useful). Not being focused on the UK was part of its appeal for me. I joined Tryst when it first started and it worked very well for me - over half my clientele came from there, and should I decide I want to start advertising again, will return in a heartbeat. (During my time using Tryst, I never paid for any of their packages.)
When I first joined Tryst, I had neither a website nor Twitter, although will concede that when I finally got a website and added it to my listing, that led to a surge of bookings. I still don't have/use Twitter - Twitter accounts for a tiny number of punters, and many of us on here don't use it. It has never been to our detriment. Twitter also takes a lot of work, and it's all smoke and mirrors anyway. I know a few FMTY companions who stopped using it because it was all encompassing and bought in little return for the effort involved.
And, as I'm talking about Twitter -
Given that Twitter seems to be in meltdown, I think those whom rely on it for marketing should start thinking about other ways to advertise should it disappear. It could well be on a par to the enormous inconvenience caused when AW removed everyone's phone numbers.

Has anyone had any luck with Kommons?
-
No lol.
Is super expensive now than it used to be and I don't understand how they managed to get away with such high prices and people are still advertising heavily with their most expensive premium. I can only assume they are getting ROI or simply don't know where their traffic comes from and assumed is from there.
I have advertised there on and off for the last year and got nothing but time wasters. Asked a friend and she never got anything from there too.

Could your phone have SafeSearch switched on? Mine occasionally switches it back on by itself and I have no idea why - you can check in the google settings :)
-
yes thanks Amy you are godsend! it was on, but when i clicked into it it said it was off! i suspected Safari and switched to chrome instead, and chrome clearly says its off and all is good there.

Have any of you got Birchplace to remove your photos and your phone number after they published them to their site without your permission (if you have been in this position)?
If so, how did you do it?
Both Birchplace and their hosting company just ignore me. As such, 2.5 years after I first raised the above matter with them, my photos and my phone number remain on their site.
Linked to this is the following question: is there some kind of app or facility that I can use to trace all the websites where my photos appear?
If so, what is it?
TIA if you reply to any part of this message.
-

You can do a reverse image search on Google but the only other one I know is Tineye, which used to be the default choice for finding nicked pictures a few years ago - it was good, but I don't know whether it still is.
I can't find a phone number for Birchplace, but their company address is listed on the Pissed Consumer site as a hotel in Earl's Court, so it might be possible to email them and ask. Although it's likely a fake, somebody there might know something?

Ah!
Thank you, Amy.

Viva Street seems to have gone downhill and that's left me with only a couple of suitable sites.
-
I stopped sing vivastreet as too many tws. You do get work but amount of haggler like i'll give you 40, how much baby tws is unreal. Wasn't worth going through all the tws from there blowing up my phone for a few extra clients.
Aw - is main one but i do alot of extra advertising and use the tour section and lots of blog writing, making sure I have a good profile.
Adultseek - I get a few a month from can advertise in 3 areas for free.
I've dropped all the other directories and just use my website, aw, adultseek
I think spending time creating a good profile on aw and writing blogs brings in more clients than wasting time and money putting up ads on loads of directories. And creating a good website as well

Does Punternet worth advertising?
-
I advertised on skokka last week and it seems like a useful site. Bringing me clients on daily basis

Punternet brings a good traffic to my website, definitely worth advertising and its free
Kommons also usefull and brings me clients
Skokka is good but I thing don't pay there for featuring. Free ad is enough
If you have a website, definitely use London Independents as well
-

I had a quick look after reading your post, seems to involve booking requests - you have 10 minutes to respond before it's automatically rejected and you are no longer shown in search results. ::) :o

It is an app so probably they will send you notifications. They advertise everywhere

Does anyone here advertise on sleepy boy?

I tried Vivastreet, and I am really puzzled how on earth those, who have experience with adultwork, can work on Vivastreet? On aw people write polite messages and book in advance. On VS people call at night and want an Outcall 'now'. I think there's no life outside AW...

XLamma aren't good. I did my profile which took me half an hour, and then they sent me an email asking me to send a photo showing my ID/age and also my face. Bloody nerve.

I am wondering if more sites will do this because of the online safety bill.
