Have you noticed that some of the ads on LeoList have little to no description? What is the most important info to include in an ad? Please keep in mind I only had space for 10 items. Please list others below.

Please try to pick your top three or four choices.

Rates! Too many ads are now leaving out basic rate information.

Hi folks :)

When I submit my Leolist ads, they cut off/ edit out the 'Rates' section I make in the textbox. I'm not sure if this is a Leolist algorithm thing, a bug on my end, or just a one time fluke.

So what I do is put my rates in an image. Does that work for you fellas? Do you scroll through all the images when looking at an ad?

I'll scroll through all the pics if the first one catches my attention, and I open the add..........so in your case....Yes.
....and thank you.

I prefer a semi/fully detailed ad describing the provider and services offered. The one or two line “come see me” ads just scream scam to me.

I only need to see what she looks like and the rate. The lengthy novels don't interest me.

Selfies! I like to know what she actually looks like. Professional pictures don't interest me at all. More often than not, the glamour photos are either not even the sp or so airbrushed and photoshopped that its still not really the sp.

Age! Ladies ,don't lie about your age. There are some of us who WANT more mature women and we may not even glance at your ad if your posted age is too low.

Tell me about yourself! I like ads that are more like a personal ad that hints at wonderful memories to be made. Just telling me how awesome you are at deepthroat makes me pass.

There has to be some kind of contact info, even if it's just a pointer to another site.
General indication of age. "mature" is fine. An age under 30 means I'm probably not interested, and she would probably not find me to be a suitable client anyway.
General location. I walk or use transit when in Vancouver or Victoria, and I'm not interested in long bus rides. If the location is out of my range, then there's no need to bother the woman with any other enquiries.
Some indication of body type, whether photo or description. On this topic, honesty goes a long way. Swimsuit models are great, but knowing what to expect is often good enough.

That's four. Sorry, couldn't cut it down to three.

Name- no name sends off warming bells...
Picture, at least 2 full body shot- from 2 different angles, no close ups- they seem to hide the body shape, can block facial to keep security. Basicly I want to see how the body fits together. When pictures are close up, blurry, small in size or dark, I tend to think the escort is trying to hide something.
Age
contact number or website
Measurements and height- also gives the idea on what the body looks like.

Because the hosting companies can be charged if we are explicitly selling sexual services we have to be more careful then ever. I just think that if your really into seeing someone, spending 5 minutes inquiring about rates isn't a big deal.
My understanding is that the problem is a rate in association with an overt description of sexual services. So, if an advertiser posts a basic rate, like $250/hour with no mention of services, that should not be an issue for an advertising venue. At least, that's what we were led to believe for a time. In any case, I admit that I just don't have the patience I once had when it comes to scrolling through ads (And I am specifically writing about ads on advertising venues, as that's what I thought this OP was about. I'm not referencing what an SP can or can not post on a personal website and the terms that they have to adhere to there). These days, if an advertiser can't be bothered to post what I feel is basic information that I need to decide if she is someone in whom I might be interested, I can't be bothered trying to do more research into that when I can more easily just move onto the next ad where that information is included.

I'm confused by this. Many LL ads include the rate as one of the header features that I can and have literally used to filter out ads that are outside of my budgetary limits. I don't always remember to filter for rates but I certainly know that we can. And I often see rates listed in the copy of numerous ads. :noidea:

Top 3 choices...
Well, without contact info the ad would be useless, so will assume that must be there...

Otherwise:
some selfies (which should answer the age, weight, ethnicity question),
enough text to get some idea of her personality, services, and approx location,
and some indication of donations required.
(and then do a search on perb...)

Really, it's the text that matters most to me. If it's overtly flowery, or it's walls of "I'm so special" text, or if it's anything too curt, then I pass.
I look for the ones that are clear, and obviously written by someone real. It can be long, and it can be short. But mostly, does the personality shine through...
That will tell me whether I will likely get along well with her...
(so far, so good...)

Ad essentials

Where and When:
Unless the trip to an in-call is feasible, all else is irrelevant.
For time & distance planning * landmarks are very helpful ; malls, Sky_Train stations, street intersections, highway exits, etc.
Days of the week, and general time of day are also very useful for congregation.
Parking ?

Height and Weight:
Individual mongers are attracted to specific somatotypes .
Yet many provider's ads seem to cast a wide net, trying be universally acceptable. ( 'small BBW' ~ 'curvy spinner' ).
"One size fits one and misfits all others."

Contact Info:
email may be very convenient but it's forever. Encrypted email requires both parties to be using the same app.
Burner-to-Burner is cool.

Client suitability:
Whom is the provider comfortable with ?​

I skip ads if there's no mention of rates or if its all glam and processed photos.

Yeah, it's weird right? What I mean is yes, I can enter my hourly rate in the field provided for that, but when I was submitting my ad, it posted with all the copy cut off/ disappeared where I made a headline that said "Rates," and below. So I went back and edited it, and it did it again. Then I gave up and put my rates in an image, which I still hope works for you gents :)

you can't really put specific details of everything you offer or how much you charge etc in the ads anymore, not since 2014 guys! get with the times and the new laws...It's illegal now to do that, advertising specifically was one of the new laws so yeah, it's banned for a reason....and the website owners will be held responsible, so they won't allow the advertisers to even post it.

I personally prefer to see selfie photos rather than the professional pics. The big thing for me is the actual text in the ad itself and if it's written in a way that seems more personable and professional rather than filled with wEt n ReAdY dirty talk bullsh*t.

The #1 most important thing for me is to get a sense of the advertisers personality and what makes her tick. The ads that don’t go into some details are ones I tend to ignore. After that - I like to see location, a few pics and physical descriptions and then rates.

Great question!
