a******s.m*****e 187 Report post Posted May 13, 2009 I don't think it is necessarily a bad thing. I wish they would charge me and leave me alone. The onslaught of the Asians and some other girls placing hundreds of ads is annoying and buries my ad within a few minutes. I would rather pay then have to compete with the Asian pimps placing the ads probably from Hong Kong or China as a fulltime job. They have no scruple and flag the competition like crazy, copy the ads and steal the pictures. I wish the staff would actually look at the ads. I don't think I have anything to worry about if that happens. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A***** A***** 510 Report post Posted May 13, 2009 This affects ONLY US Sites "As of today for all US sites, postings to the ?erotic services? category will no longer be accepted, and in 7 days the category will be removed" Do a tour of the US sites, you will see both the erotic services and adult services categories. Here in Canada, (Great day to be Canadian) there is still the erotic services section. The US doesn't have jurisdiction over what goes on in another country, or atleasat they think they don't :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SamanthaEvans 166766 Report post Posted May 13, 2009 Law enforcement isn't haunting CL in Canada since it's legal to advertise sexual services here, thank goodness! I agree about the multi-post spamming of the erotic services section--it's nightmarish some days. But there's a group of providers who have been flagging ads that don't conform to the TOS and they seem to have been successful with many of them. I don't know if that will last, though. I haven't run and ad there in quite a while, but I did get some good clients via CL who are still visiting me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think I have anything to worry about if that happens. I have to kinda agree with this on the other hand. I hate having my add burried amongst tons of tasteless adds with girls only showing their arch back and ass in the air....or fake ads for that matter. Aurora: I've advertised on escortsite.com before but my site was shut down by a bitter agent for "copywrited material" who is still using my photos on her site, I'm trying to find the best site to advertise on now for free that gets the most hits. Any advice you can offer would be greatly appreciated.... mind you, I find participating on the boards here a fairly good means for meeting clients too who are "in the know" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JoyfulC 132299 Report post Posted May 16, 2009 Hands down, the best advertising for me, with respect to bringing in quality customers, is Escorts-Canada.com. You do have to pay for your ad there, but it's extremely reasonable compared to, say, print classifieds. I have advertised on CL, and I have gotten new business from there, but it's such a pain in the ass. I'd rather pay to be on a site where the admin deals with the nonsense and where I can actually get service and support if there's a problem. I also find the customers from EC are usually seriously looking for an appointment, and not just looking for chums and freebies. I don't make huge amounts of money, but the price is more than affordable and I just budget it into the cost of doing business. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
