I use Vivastreet for ads, I do just a basic ad and get a few bookings from it but god the amount of timewasters you have to get through is unreal.
Personally I find adding my website link, makes the genuine clients click through and book. I've had a few comments from clients along the lines of "there's so many fakes on there" "I know you ad is real as you have a link to your website" etc.
But I blur my face and Vivastreet seems to be going down the verification root and you have to do a selfie. My question to any other sex workers is have you verified with vivastreet? Do you have to show your face on your ads to do this?
Or can Vivastreet answer this question
Thanks
Hi Fannyrose,
In response to your query, we can confirm that you do not have to display your face on your ad to photo verify your account.
To photo verify your account, it is required for advertisers to take a selfie so our system can confirm their identification. However, you do not have to show this photo on your advert.
Advertisers will have the option to keep or hide their verification photo. If they opt to keep it on their profile, clients will be able to see this photo when fully viewing an ad.
Our advertisers who show their verified photo are, on average, getting 20% more contacts than those who haven't verified. Therefore, whilst photo verifying is optional, we'd recommend it to those who are interested.
You can find more information on our photo verification feature here: https://www.vivastreet.co.uk/blog/vivastreet-photo-verification/
Kind regards,
Cordelia @ Vivastreet Team
