Something I have realised about Vivastreet:

The age of your advert makes a huge difference in how it is displayed. Don't re-post the same advert over and over. Make new ones. My friend is featuring but she created her advert in 2015 and in this busy area we are in you have to scroll down through several pages just to find her. What is the point of featuring if you're still going to be several pages down?

I think the repost option may make a difference. But that's another expense on top of featuring. IMO, in most areas it is only worth featuring if your advert is new and/or you pay to repost to the top. You can be sure other girls will be reposting so if you don't then you will always be below them.

I was thinking of featuring for the five days I was in Essex but I noticed there is no five-day drop-down option like there is in my home city. I suppose I could move my advert back, wait for it to come out of moderation, feature it,  then move it back. But since I would still have to also repost it to stay towards the top that is more money than I'd like to pay. Also, the repost option is for ten days and my advert expires in 8 days.

As it is, I rely on guys searching for women my age in my area and then I turn up on a relatively short list without needing to feature.

I can see from my Google analytics that my profile is getting views because I link my website - if only a small percentage are bothering to click through to my website that's a fair amount of traffic.

The VIP feature puts you on top of the featured adverts constantly. It sure serves well. :)

Essentially useless in fact as it gets lost amongst other adverts.
I paid 100 to renew my advert and it fell to the back pages immediately.
I will now be creating a new advert each month.
To be fair Vivastreet were helpful and created A fresh one for me (without additional cost)
But I don't want to have to phone them every month to complain to them.

Hi Everyone,

Just to clear up the age of an ad issue, this is indeed down to when you first posted the ad and always shows the date and time the ad was initially made. The site works in this manor as this is how the repost feature logic happens, so we are not able to display this.

Unlike other sites we dont carry 'old' or 'outdated' ads as all user pay which what helps keep the site clean and up to date, but we understand not all 'punters' will understand this.

Some solutions have been posted to the problem and this is a quick list that contains all.

Free solution - As pointed out create and post a new ad every time, the negatives being it gets treated as a new ad by the moderation team. Non of the paid options would mean the ad goes into moderation.

Cheapest solution - Take the repost 1 day plan, it only costs a couple of pounds and will update the time and date of your ad to the time you carry out the action (will repost twice in the day).

Mid price solution - Take the full ad repost plan, reposts your ad every 12 hours automatically for the duration of your plan.

High price solution - Take the multi repost options, this reposts your ad every 12 hours automatically for the duration of your plan and allows you every 20 minutes to manually repost the ad.

If you have any questions please drop me andemail.

Thank you,

The Vivastreet Team - Vini (Finny is on holiday for the next 2 weeks)

I can only see a 30 day repost for ?29.99 or 30 day multi repost for ?99.99, no one day plan?

EDIT:: when I clicked Repost from under the ad name instead of over on the right there is now a 1 day option for ?2.99 in the drop down!

EDIT2: But it won't let me pay for this option - the payment page says ?0 and the payment won't go through because of a "random error".

Hi Everyone,

We noticed some chatter about PTMU (Pleasure to meet you) site, sorry for any delays on publishing new ads or modifications but we had a leaver. If you have any issues on your ad feel free to email myself and I can pass on, or if you can call the VS customer support number ask for somebody in the London CS team as they are trained on the site in the interim while we recruit.

The site is still growing (not quite abandoned ;D) and in terms of organic traffic (Search engines) is up 120% year on year, it doesn't quite have the traffic of VS but does generate around 200k visits a month.

Once we have the new team in place you should start to see some more action on the site.

Thank you,

The Vivastreet Team - Vini
