Posts: 445Ad Info
Some great points to advertising.
But,
I have a website that shows current pics, services, rates, contact info, availability-all the things that are desired in a posted ad, except for my location.
Personally, I don't even like to give out my general location until I have checked the client's references.
In terms of ads, I do like to get creative with what my advertisement says, and therefore usually don't mention these things in the ads.
But, like Chrissee (I hope that's spelled right!) , with advertising, visibility, image, and the 'hook' have proven to be effective tools used everywhere in the advertising industry.
Your ad should be considered a first impression-for new clients, this is their 'window' to the real you.

Knowing the Provider's general location, cost, and decent, accurate, recent photos are probably the most important. If I am looking for some fun, I will often make my decision based on how close the Provider is to me, how much the session will cost, and what the Provider looks like (in no particular order).
If I am short on time, location may play a BIG factor in the decision. Many times, I don't want to drive 45 minutes to the Provider's location, have an hour session, and then drive 45 minutes back. That's almost 3 hours of my day and I can't always give up that much time. And, knowing the location becomes even more important if the Provider changes location every day. Just because she was close yesterday doesn't mean she is today.
Cost is obvious. If I don't have the money, I can't play.
Decent, accurate, recent photos should be pretty obvious too. By decent, I mean -- clear, in focus, well lit, showing her face (if she is comfortable with that) and body. They don't have to be "professional" photos, but preferably not just self portraits taken with your phone in the mirror. Accurate -- the photos should be of the actual girl that I'm going to see without any major retouching / body shaping. Recent -- a decent, accurate photo of a Provider from three years ago is really not what I want to see. What does the Provider look like today.
Frankly, it wastes my time and the Provider's time if I have to call to find out these things only to learn that she is too far away, or costs too much, or her appearance doesn't appeal to me -- when I could have found all of this information in her ad.
On the topic of daily ads. I don't mind daily ads... IF there is a valid reason to post a daily ad:
Phone number changed,
Location changed,
Rate changed,
New pictures,
Doesn't work every day and she is working today,
etc.
I honestly don't think that a Provider must post a daily ad just to be kept on the front page. Whether on BackPage, USASG, or other sites, I will look through several days of ads until I find who I want. I certainly won't pick someone solely based on the fact that she is on the first page of ads at which I look. In fact, I typically jump back several days (3 or 4 pages at least) and look at the ads in reverse order anyhow.
Ladies, while I am sure that you might miss a potential Client here and there because he saw someone else's ad before yours, posting a lot of ads or ads every day to stay on the front page is not really the solution. Ad-wise: a clear, enticing ad with complete, relevant information and photos are going to be the best choice. Beyond that, if you provide the best Service (in the broad sense of the term) that you can, you'll get good reviews and referrals and then the ads won't matter as much.
Just my thoughts on the topic,
JRW1

Maybe the solution is a simple directory thread for making the regular advertisers easier to find.

Posts: 138Escort-Classified-Ads-Posted-by-Escorts-No-Reviews-or-Commentary
I have a complaint about the number of ads that are being posted in the thread "Escort-Classified-Ads-Posted-by-Escorts-No-Reviews-or-Commentary". Some women who have been advertising on this particular thread are overloading the site with multiple advertisements. I find this annoying. I think the administration should curtail the number of ads by an escort to maybe only one per week rather than three or four per day. There is one group of four women who have a joint ad followed by an ad for each of the women in the group, and on the same page this ad appears more than once.

Posts: 154Thank you
I for one would like to thank you for your reply and willingness to address this even though I'm not one that has an issue.
It was obvious that posts where directed to your group.
However, I can browse at my leisure when looking at all adds and like that your Fan4 is now all pretty much the same except for pertinent info for each lady.
Keep killing them with kindness!

Maybe it is a perception thing, but it does seem like we have some providers that put three ads on there per day-and all it is is a copy and paste of the same dang ad. It has gotten to the point that I just skip through them and look for somebody new or an old favorite visiting or offering something new, different or a actual friggin' special-for the record calling the rate that you always charge "a special this weekend" over and over does not make it a special! It makes it tedious and can lead to buyer remorse, before they ever actually buy!
Maybe the ladies don't trust us to make a discerning choice in who we see? Do all providers really think we are so impulsive that we just click and see the first pretty girl listed at the top of the page, hence the need to refresh a redundant copy and paste job?

Posts: 374Some good points are being brought up
I agree if you travel a lot that you should post often to inform hobbyists that you are in that area. And for myself I do not think you post to much on here or backpage. Or that UTR does. But there another set of provider that I keep seeing a lot of ads on here and backpage. And these provider are not traveling or having a new number. And when these providers make so many ads on here it kind of hard on other provider that do not post so often. Just my two cents worth.
QUOTE=Sinful Dreams; 1548950][/QUOTE]I agree to a point. BUT like myself when I move around and not in the same location, I might post one ad one day, and another ad somewhere else the next day. I don't try to flood the board though with more than one ad a day. Just my two cents.

BTW. I do think the girls are a great group and hope they don't get caught up in the hype as we all know how fast the few can ruin it for them and us.

Posts: 374Could not agree more.
Could not agree more with you. Thought it only a few provider that are doing it here as they probably do on backpage. But providers posting a max of 3 times a week sounds fair.

Anyway to cut back on some of this spamming the board, it just loads up the picture gallery with the same pic's over and over again. This is not BP, you don't need to post the same ad everyday. I can't be the only member that feels this way.
I'm with you John.
Jackson needs to only let the escorts post there ads on here a maximum of three times per week. There are times when these escorts take up to two pages in the photo sections.
