Can I get a little help here.. please?

[Alix Turner]

Was hoping the men of the board could offer me a little bit of insight into what would serve them best in an eros ad or providers website.

I think that a lot of the time women create sites based on their own idea of what is appealing and while I agree that she has to feel that the site or ad is something she is comfortable with, I do wonder what would be different if it was up to the clients to choose the content. While it may be up to me to decide what sort of language is best for sharing the information.. I really want to know what information is most important, and what you have experienced as appealing or off putting in the past. I would definitely like to know if anyone has any ideas about what should be included but never is.

I have a few basic "no's" in mind, no music that automatically plays, no overly busy designs, no cliche's to the best of my ability (the are inevitable in this industry) and no bullshit.

but... are measurements worthwhile on an ad or do you assume they're bullshit anyway, should I say much about who I am and who I would like to see or is it intimidating and should be left until someone contacts me... anything you can offer in terms of advice would be appreciated, and who knows, maybe this thread will be informative for other girls in the future trying to decide on what their webcontent should be.

thanks

Please don't say you are a student and only doing this part-time (even if you really are a student), cos that has to be the most over-used and cliched description in the SP industry:eyebrows:.

 

[bcneil]

Lots of pictures...

Lots of ladies have multiple folders of pics, but sometimes some of the folders are private, and you have to sign up an email account to be a member.......just to look at pics!!
Not a fan if this.

Yeah, loud automatic music is a no, amazing how many ladies think we like a nice loud blast of music.

 

[vancity_cowboy]

i know some women list their true measurements and weight - but they are very very few. i think if guys really knew most women's true measurements and weight, they would be quite confused. i know, i've gone shopping with a few women and found out their true waist and hip sizes etc. and i've been shocked. true measurements and weights would make most guys think they had fallen into a whale tank! so that's kind of out

nice pics for sure - fully clothed, lingerie clad, nudity, its all good - but i do object to excessive facial blurring or the bursts of light etc. i realize privacy is a big concern, but some ladies (or their photographers) manage to get it just right - they can't be recognized but there is just enough detail showing through so that the viewer can tell whether she looks like a fox or a gorilla

RATES - DEFINITELY!!! i WILL NOT see a lady who won't put her rates on her website - 'phone for rates'... yeah right... in your dreams :doh:

and definitely no sound surprises! many of us are... how to put this delicately... time thieves, and hate it when the big blast of music erupts in our office :fear:

negatives... everything that they said ^^

edit** oh, and contact info... email addy, phone number and the method most likely to get a response. forget the little self-delivery message boxes - i'm old fashioned

Agreed with all of the above. You post very straightforwardly and I would appreciate it if your new website reflected how you think rather than how you think a client might be attracted to the site. Personally, I like strong women with definite views.

but... are measurements worthwhile on an ad or do you assume they're bullshit anyway, should I say much about who I am and who I would like to see or is it intimidating and should be left until someone contacts me... anything you can offer in terms of advice would be appreciated, and who knows, maybe this thread will be informative for other girls in the future trying to decide on what their webcontent should be.

Measurements, somewhat but more important would be pics either nude or in lingerie that are WYSIWYG I agree with Alin on this one.

Turnoffs are the cliche words like "courtesan"; its overdone and as a mature guy I sort of chuckle when I see a 19 or 20 year old calling herself an experienced courtesan. It implies to me a 'worldliness', 'vast experience' yadda yadda yadda that does not really arrive with a SP til she is approaching 30

Wilde also pointed out being a student is a no no which I agree. It can imply that you may be 'struggling' and tuition is due etc.

Good luck with your new web presence. I look forward to seeing it

There are the Elvis Impersonators that work the Cecil...

thanks al, thanks a lot... for the snort of wine up my nose!!

 

[Alix Turner]

thanks al, thanks a lot... for the snort of wine up my nose!!

this sort of situation is precisely why I tend to drink white wine

 

[Flaw]

When looking at your personal websites I look for;
Pictures - Sexy, but doesn't need to be nude. Sometimes it's nice to leave a little to the imagination until we meet. A face pic is always appreciated but I understand why most would like to obscure this feature.
Services - It's really nice to see what is available before hand. I understand that YMMV but "I provide a great GFE" is obscure and a matter of one's opinion. At least have your restrictions.
Price - A must. Please don't waste my time.

Those are the basics I look. Anything less and I won't be calling.

Calenders - Very handy if they are updated. Very few ever are.
Bio - It's nice to know a something about you. I'm more of a wine'n'dine than a wham-bam-thankyou-maam type so it's nice to be able to talk about one of your interests at the start. Helps to ease the (if there is any) tension first.

No music please - " and definitely no sound surprises! many of us are... how to put this delicately... time thieves, and hate it when the big blast of music erupts in our office
" as Vancity Cowboy put it.

Good luck Alix!

 

[Gentle-man]

Pictures, lingerie definitely, nude if you desire. Face shots are wonderful, but if you can't do face shots can I recommend eyes crop and smile crop shots. Rates yes, calendar is very nice, contact methods, reference process, links to reviews on various boards... some description of service (either what is included, or what is definitely off the menu) website link, Stats yes (mostly for height, but also confirms perspective of pictures) General location of incall... And some sexy line that will make me think of you over the last 5 ads I looked at.

 

[ReluctantPooner]

I have to agree with most of what's been said. I would stress to have lots of recent pictures from varying angles, so the gentlemen can get an accurate idea of your body shape so he know's if you are his type. Whether you are thicker or thinner, there are men that prefer your body type, and it's best to avoid giving the wrond impression with just a couple of bad angles pictures. I agree with the guys who have said that if you feel you can post your face, do it, but understand while most won't!
That being said, I would also add being active here on PERB in sections such as the lounge, so we can get a bit of an idea as to your personality.

 

[old pooner]

In your photos, wear various outfits that you own and have available. I know a lot of photographers have outfits available for the shoot. However, it's always a little disappointing when a girl has really sexy photos in, say, a nurses outfit, but doesn't have it available for sessions.

 

[p2v7guy]

Wonderful thread started Alix. Great ideas offered. Some more to consider;
I like to know colour of eyes unless it is obvious in pics.
If you radically change your hair colour, delete old pics or warn me on phone. Don't like big shock at the door.
Offering LFK & DFK seems to me cliche and redundant. Either you do FK or you don't.
Pics all in crouching positions like an animal are dime-a-dozen.
Some pics reclining or standing should show your whole person. Show beautiful legs to advantage.
Some bare-foot/bare-leg pics get my eye more than boots and fishnet stockings.
Some bordello lingerie pics if you must,bBut they have become ubiquitous and too much of that turns me off...go for variety in pics.
Jeans can be sexy, and swimwear or athletic wear. Dare to be unique and different. Not another copy.
Surprise us with street clothes or cocktail dress. Or classic all nude.
I don't care for shoes and boots in bedroom or bed but some guys do.
If you are Bi and have favourite Bi girlfriend(s) for duos or more etc. let us know about that and your gf(s).

Hope this helps you Alix and others wanting to do it well.

 

[cjac7214]

I totally agree with Poky's comments above - bad grammar and spelling turns me off too or, perhaps more accurately, good grammar turns me on (I like sexy nerds).

I happen to like bio's that are genuine and witty and that truly describe you (I suppose Alix if not the real you) and I also like to know the type of client you are interested in - it allows the guys that bother to read to self-select. BTW - Volpina Vance has an excellent website. In terms of the main event, guys want to be able to figure out if you are a sensual GFE kind of gal, or gonzo PSE.

As for photo's, whether amateur or professional, clothed or nude, don't be misleading (I know you won't be). A lot of the bad reviews on PERB start with "she was not the girl in the pictures...."

Finally, absolute restrictions are good to know - I hate being told in the middle of a playdate. The biggies are kissing and oral restrictions. Most guys get that YMMV (or they should) so a list of services is not as necessary IMO because who knows what the date may inspire or turn off.

 

[eagleroamer]

Variety is the spice of life....so,... just like I don't eat pizza every day, there are days I may want BBW, then a spinner then a white, then an asian etc.
So, having said that....I would appreciate a posting/listing that is accurate.
1)Stats (some days I prefer A cups, and then on other days DD cups), 2)Current pics (don't want to be suprised), 3)Location (for planning ETA), 4)Menu & Rates (so I don't have to phone), and finally 5)Reviews (very important); Out of my last 30 SPs, only 2 were seen with no reviews,

 

[AA_Train]

Many people have given content suggestions that are all great but one thing one needs to do on an escort website (or any website for that matter) is UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE!!!! Websites need to be maintained and are the gateway to business. PERB and other advertising directs interested people to your site so the best thing to do is to give them relevant up to date information. Pictures are one thing to update fairly regularly as are descriptions of yourself. You may gain weight, you may lose weight. You may colour your hair, you may get a tan. Most guys want the lady they are seeing to be a known quantity when it comes to their appearance. They also need the most up to date contact info and an idea of your availability.

Also, when it comes to design, try to make it simple yet significant. Most guys are probably like me and appreciate a nicely designed site, but ultimately, we are there for info.

PS Alix, I hate it when music automatically plays when you enter a website, however, maybe a playlist of what music you are currently listening to may be a nice touch. Just a thought

 

[taliesin76]

One other minor technical suggestion for the website design is to make sure it's compatible with mobile phone browsing. I'm always annoyed when I click on a link to an sp website and it won't open on my iPhone.

 

[Lefty]

Location location location!

At least a general area (nearby major intersection?).

It's important for many reasons, spontanaity, convenience, familiarity, and the dreaded "do I know anyone in that hood that I might run in to"

i guess a represention of who you are and what kind of service or style you have.


i have been in this awhile ok, and well every girl is different, the way they approach it is different

some girls are more raunch, and more just a whore, if you forgive the word.
others are more class, more style and personality
others are like a playboy sort of centerfold.
others are girls next door,

and seriously there is room for everyone you shouldn't be ashamed of the person you are or the kind of sercive you hope to provide
i have known several different ladies with very different styles as to the way they approach this.

and you or i have enjoyed myself immensly with very conservative girls, giving a gfe type of service.
to girls, who are all out just raunchery then hell.
i guess its hard to convey this in an ad, and still be tasteful.

and even conservative girls can get pretty wild in bed,
i dunno but im looking for charecter personality. in an ad.

instead of wet and waiting for you.
so show who you are,

actually i find all of that rather boring and disgusting,
wet and waiting for you and tight.
all girls so far as i know have the same equipment, have not managed to check them all out yet but im getting there.

but girls are unique and varied, so be yourself, like i said i enjoy personality and charecter, doesn't really turn me off even if its alittle quirky or different

i think in an ad you want to stand out be different, and what better way to then be you

You know how to write, so you should write. It's salesmanship to demonstrate that you're smart. It doesn't have to be long...consider a blog with some of the thoughts you post here; interactivity might also be a good, um, tool.

 

[Alix Turner]

Here's the thing, from my perspective: the first time I see you, it's like a job audition for both of us. You decide if you might be comfortable with me as a client, and I decide if I will be a repeat customer.

I especially like ladies who will ask for a gift for the less fortunate, i.e. food bank or other charity, the SPCA, and so on.

I know my screening process really turns some people off, but I think of it almost the same way, in hearing what a person is like, what their expectations are, and what they consider to be a good time... I can usually get a good idea as to whether or not I'm worth their time or worth trying to be.

I find the list of gifts a little bizarre sometimes but I think maybe a lot of girls get asked what they want all of the time by their clients and it is uncomfortable giving a list not knowing what their client had in mind? but, quite honestly... I found one list that totally surprised me and actually kind of made me think a lot more of the woman who had it.. well... see for yourself what this woman is looking for IF you choose to get her something. (she's one of the few escorts I found to be extremely costly that I thought offered the kind of companionship I might be willing to pay that much for on a regular basis if I was a man in the position to pay something like that) The link to her gifts list is the red "click here" if you scroll down. I intend to check them all out.
