I'm surprised to see Backpage still has its escort section. So I was wondering if Bp or LL was more reliable? Or are they both the same. I've noticed both have same ads for some girls.

Depends on the area. For the Vancouver area it's Leolist. For other areas like Calgary it's still BP.

In the Vancouver market there's more of a selection on Leolist plus I like the fact that they are trying to be a reliable resource for us guys by having things like the verified pics. I also like the search filters on Leolist. Not only can I refine a search based on ladies I prefer I can also weed out the ones I think are a waste of time, such as many of the Asian ads which use stolen pics.

They need to make a separate section for the Asians IMO, they have their own way of doing business.

And I think its sad if BP is the only option for all the other towns

I couldn't agree more. That crosses my mind every time I go onto that site. To be honest, its annoying seeing Leo list being dominated by Asian / Korean fake ads. With so many far east ads taking over Leo list, I wonder if that is a catalyst in lack of " Caucasian " ladies entering this field? Not to long ago Caucasian escorts were a dime a dozen. Even here on Perb....seems a lot less local ladies registering nowadays. You see much more travelling ladies on Perb now.

PS...the BDSM section here on Perb use to be very vibrate not long ago with ladies advertising " kinky - fantasy play ( my type :) " ) etc etc. That section is dead now.

Just my observation.

Personally as a provider, I haven't used Backpage in years due to the fact they only accept BitCoin as payment and the whole process of acquiring the currency is a pain. However a lot of very reputable ladies use both services so I wouldn't say either is better than the other.

I find LeoList to be more straight forward and I like the fact they allow a longer text section for advertisements. :)

When I used LL only in Nanaimo recently, I only had about 4 calls total in the day & a half I was there before I got sick & went home. The last time I was there when I used BP, I had more calls than I could answer every day & for days afterwards. In the Nanaimo market, it seems to be where most of the men look.

Backpage sucks. It's littered with fake ads and is unreliable. LL or on here (of course!) for me.
Neither site is that great. As has been said, tons of asian ads on LL - all fake. Looking at backpage, you can tell a lot of these pics are off Instagram. What I find annoying is that on backpage, you get unrealistic fake ads, on LL, you get more believable, fake ads I tell you, if perb was also an amazon of hooking, with reviews RIGHT on the ads, ppl would be more careful what they advert and pooners also, cuz u could get rated as a buyer too. Id download THAT app.. just get an apk out there. If u can stream dr strange, u can hook this up.

LL has legit SPs, you can count them on one hand on Backpage. I can separate the real ads from the fake ones on LL and I don't even see Asian girls.

BP looks like a mess. I wouldn't ever consider following up on an ad.
I love Asians but being able to exclude them from a search on LL makes it much more tolerable to search. I also exclude anything on the south side of the river. Too many fake Asian ads and rip-offs in Surrey.

I consider LL the better one; BP can be a bit sketchy, a mixed bag; CL is totally sketchy and I won't ever look there.

Different places mean different sites used. I trust leolist and perb ads more than backpage, but other places trust backpage because its more used in that specific area. Like the US uses backpage a lot, and so do other places, now they need to try and find a new site.

One thing I like about LeoList compared to BP and CL is that there's a real human being running the site, who understands the industry, that we can communicate with here or on his site, as opposed to total strangers in another country that rarely respond when someone has a question or complaint.

It's a website designed to serve the industry, not a general classified ad site trying to accommodate sex workers.

Another big plus with LeoList is their payment system. Their payment portals have worked perfectly for me every time and I've been advertising there since they first opened the site. I get accurate, easy to understand notifications when my ads are posted and expire, and I'm really happy with them.
