Is there anyway I can make the link on my ad an active link?So far when I've advised enquirers that my website address is at the bottom of my ad there's been a sort of blank silence.

I have had a couple of those calls you mention from numbers I have flagged in the past as those who ask you to describe your services in great detail "Really, you do, go on tell me again.............." types. Standard sales and business training would say there's an opportunity to make a sale there whereas in reality that type of enquiry just wastes time you could be spending on genuine enquiries. The opening line from one such was "Which one are you?" sniff. Think he used that last time. Phones every time I advertise with VS.

Hi Strawberry, hmmm a tricky one! The link on the ad looks perfectly clickable, we cant really force people to review your link unfortunately. Perhaps we could try and move the link to the top of your ad text and maybe say something like please visit my site before contacting me?

I completely get what you are saying with regards to the 'sales and business' training and your right that's what I would have thought before talking to you all, however we know these are just time wasters or perhaps after a quick thrill or something else!

Some of the escorts that use VivaProtect (070) leave a pre recorded message so all callers have to listen to it, so they can here a description and listen to there voice - we have had some positive feedback that this has reduced some time wasters. As other posters have mentioned you don't need to use our service for this, there are others that you can use out there.

Thanks,

Not if they put the phone down they don't. I have a pre-recorded message on my phone which advises of my website & a time when I'll be able to take their call. Some do listen but a lot don't which is obvious when I have 7 missed calls one after the other from the same number at a time when my voicemail greeting says "sorry I'm busy please call back at x time", even had guys leave messages at 2am asking me to see them there and then yet my greeting says I'm not available, phone back after 8am in the morning.

You can't force customers to read or listen to anything, however you can provide things like as much information as possible and clickable weblinks to make things easier for a certain amount of interested potential customers.

Its still not clickable Peter 

I have lodged the question with the tech team on if we can get the links clickable - if we are letting you now put them in we can at least try and let people click rather than copy and paste! Once I have an update I will post to advise. Remember our site was designed in a certain way, so its not always a quick fix we can implement - sorry!

Thanks,

Gem

This is the reason why I never dabbled to begin with after the announcement of good news.

Hi Gem, thanks for the feedback. Sorry you seem to be having issues, could you please email me your ad id or email address? I can then investigate which agent is modifying your ad as all changes are tracked on our system. Can you also include the ad text so I can also vet this? es@vivastreet.com

Thanks.

Plus it means this thread isn't constantly getting bumped back to the top for no good reason.

General discussion and feedback is fine, but any individual enquiries need to be addressed directly to the site and the people who are paid to deal with them. The thread has been helpful, but the forum is not a subdivision of the VS customer service department and nor is it going to become one.

Its still not clickable Peter 

It's not clickable because its not hyper linked   Or whatever they call it  so no matter what you do to your add it won't be clickable unless they change the way the viva st works in some way or other

'samazing how they are such a worldwide venture and they don't have a proper geo-database, and don't understand how to insert links. . Could do with a bit of catch up really.

Is this some kind of joke?

Completely re-writing my profile with the "crazy" tagline: "star escort crazy" & "the lot e and then some"

Beyond livid.
