New site launched need female escorts and opinions
« on: 22 March 2012, 10:48:00 pm »
Hi there

My name is Colin and I have started my own escort website in the UK, we have both straight male and female escorts on there. We currently dont have any girls on there , signed up a few gents we've also been going for about 2 weeks now only and i wanted to show you the website to see if any ladies would be interested and get some opinions and tips for it.[removed]

To be registred on the website it cost ?7 a month and we dont take a % of your fees
you can cancel anytime you want if you decide the website is not appropriate for you
again like most rules we go we only introduce you to meet clients to which anything you do :-* or may not do is between consenting adults and does not involve us.

To get some tips on the website will also be a benefit to myself as I'm new to this game, I was previously an  straight male escort for 3months and most of that was a part time thing.

Anyway check us out on www.mycitycompanion.com

Col

Colin, you may not be aware of this but advertising of (including taking payment for advertising of) prostitution is perfectly legal in the UK - you don't have to fanny about with the time and companionship only flimflam because you are not exercising any control over the activities of your advertisers - you're just selling advertising space.

If you are actually serious about not wanting people on your site who have sex in exchange for money, then there's really no point in your thread being on this forum - we are sex workers and advertising as anything else, especially bearing in mind there is no market and no customers for social-only or straight male escorts, would be of no interest to the people here. I'm not sure why you've even posted since even the most cursory of glances ought to tell you that this is a message board for prostitutes?

If you really want feedback on your site then I would say the best thing you can do is to take it down and start again, and make friends with a proof reader before you do. And if you actually, seriously have the brass neck to charge people money to feature on it in it's current state, I'm almost impressed. I thought I had bollocks.

Hi Amy

Thanks for that just being overly cautious and youre probably correct on why people want to see an escort im just being careful with my words. As im relativity new to this just trying to protect myself. Went for a basic site where you can browse easily. already some of the guys have had bookings so not bad!

Just trying to attract some ladies to it also. What do you think about the price im charging currently? do you think thats reasonable? ?7 a month to advertise on there and we dont take a cut of your fees.

Colin, you seem to be muddled about what your site is doing - there aren't any advertising directories anywhere which take a cut of our fees, it's agencies who do that and people pay them for performing various tasks that they would prefer not to do themselves such as setting up appointments, screening and security, none of which you are providing. The Yellow Pages don't take a cut of their advertisers' profits either - an ad costs x amount, whoever wants one pays it and that's the end of the involvement. The major difference for us is that the vast majority of our ads are free or near enough - nobody will pay to go on an unknown site which is unlikely to get them any work. The presence of ads for straight men would destroy any credibility it had among other industry sites, if it had had any in the first place.

I suggest you read this thread. It's a couple of years old, but nothing much has changed - and the big few directories are still exactly the same now as they were then.

Sometimes I do wonder if these guys just put these ads on here to give us a good laugh.

Would seriously like to know how the guys on there got bookings already considering trying to find that site on google is nigh on impossible
Truth is far more important than what one wants to hear. With truth there is no us and them or colour or religion there is just fact

One of the guys on there comes to see me every now and then.  Guess I won't see him again since he'll be so busy working ;D

I feel sorry for the blokes on there, who'll have posted their pictures in the public domain, are parting with their ?7 a month and hoping for bookings. I get contacted myself occasionally by 'Male Escorts' asking me why they aren't getting bookings, can I advise them how to get some interest, is it because they aren't good looking enough or are doing something wrong.

Good Afternoon All,

 I run mycitycompanion.com alongside Colin. I personally feel that the introduction to our site got off to a bad start on this forum. What I believe Colin was trying to get across is that we would just like opinions of the feel of the site. I would like to apologise on his behalf for being tactless on his approach although he did state that he was just being 'overly-cautious'.

 Yes there are many sites out there doing what we do (advertising platforms) however I believe we can do it better. We have in place marketing strategies to increase exposure to the escorts that appear on our site. We intend to use physical media such as flyers and business cards to create a greater awareness of not just our site but escorts in general to those that wouldn't normally give thought to it. We have lowered the pricing of our membership to a level relative to our growth, undercutting competitors such as G4H. The content on the site is constantly changing (or evolving if you like) to try to appeal to those visiting. At present we have taken the female escorts pages offline as at the moment it is admittedly empty space, the layout and presentaion will be the same as it is for the male escorts on the site.

As a goodwill gesture I would like to present a free 6 month membership to female escorts. This invitation must be taken up by June 2012. Please email info@mycitycompanion quoting saafe offer

Although admittedly we don't have a great deal of experience of being escorts ourselves we are very business minded and are committed to this business venture that we have started.

I would like to welcome any further recommendations, suggestions or opinions for the site.

You see a (at best close to scam) site like gentlemen4hire as your primary competition?!?

I can assure you we're not here to scam anyone i've just presented a 6 month free membership of what we have to offer. G4H is not our main competetior but it is a competitor non the less, as is any other website/agency/directory. Nobody is being exploited. People who choose to be on sites such as ours is their of their own free will and our prices are some of the lowest of those that do charge. The main difference between our site and most others is that we're not going to just let the site float around in webspace hoping people will stumble across it. We have marketing strategies in place and are constantly looking at new innovative ways to bring the site and the escorts on there to the attention of people who wouldn't have normally have thought about searching for it online.

I am not saying you are a scam - although I would be a tinier bit happier if

There is a demand for UK escorts, male and female, from all different backgrounds. 
Becoming an escort can be an excellent way to earn a second income whilst meeting
new and interesting people. A lot of the escorts featured on My City Companion receive
repeat bookings from clients that they have befriended and can potentially receive several
bookings per week.We are always looking to add escorts to the site so if you want to add
bit of thrill and excitement to your life and get cash for doing it register with My City
Companion!


.. was more honest about the market (and where's the evidence for the third sentence?)

I am amazed that you consider G4H as your primary competition.

Oh, you do know there's a website featuring stupidly located QR codes, don't you?

Thank you for highlighting this, we're always looking to make our content more appealing and I agree that we cannot provide evidence for that sentence we will have it ammended. As previously stated we don't regard G4H as our main competitor but it is a competitor non the less, as is any other website/agency/directory. I was not aware that there is another site utilising QR codes, in what way are they stupidly placed.
