[flawesome]

what is your plan to keep out scam ads and fake reviews?

 

[Tango441]

If you build it, they will come!

Can I suggest verification pictures with the contact phone number on a piece of paper instead of just a date

When I lived in the UK I was a big fan of adultwork.com - I wonder why that site isn't popular on this side of the pond?

I may be showing my age with this comment, years ago there was a fantastic website, something like:
escorts-canada.com
Or something like that, but it had all the information you wanted in a grid view, such as breast size, rates, what services were offered, etc.

It was a great resource back in the day, I just can't remember the exact website address.

The problem with a lot of these "escort" websites is the fact WE never added ourselves to them.

I can not even begin to count the amount of random ass websites stole my information off LL, Tryst or even my website and "made an account" for me. 99% of the time the info is wrong too


If you are going to make something like this you have to make sure the following is met: A way to verify each account (provider and client) so you know everyone on it is real, Monitoring shrill reviews or even false negative ones, Providers who are let alone comfortable disclosing all this info to you/ your server, and also LOTS of proxy bs to throw your website off shore bc of Canadian laws around sw


I think if there was somewhere that could verify reviews (there is a site but I will not mention it) it would be amazing for those WHO WANT REVIEWS, but as a site already did this and it has back fired a million and one ways... I would be cautious.

Maybe this is more from a provider stand point, but i've been around 10 years and counting now...


Also there is a site called tryst (which has been mentioned a million times on this board) that requires provider to be real to advertise on

I was there a lot from 2008 to 2011 and always had great luck with the London Escort Guide.

I say do it! LL is way to hit and miss.

Spot on Nadia, I’m being pinged on a hourly basis from all over Asia & the Middle East thanks to scraper sites that ignore requests to have our profiles removed. And the last thing I need is another overpriced classified site to maintain ads on. I would be more interested in investing in marketing that delivers high quality inquiries. I prefer Tryst, Twitter and business by referral at the moment.

For clients weeding through LL, I think you need a strategy. If I was using it to find someone, I would consider booking a provider with a website and active social media presence so I can see they’ve invested in their business and get a sense of their personality. It’s an especially frustrating platform if you’re not doing any other research.

Leolist gets way too much hate. It’s easily the best advertising platform we have in Ottawa and it isn’t close. Whether they are touring or they are local, nearly every escort who is hosting in Ottawa posts their ad on leolist.

 

[WPLOTT]

I think leolist thrives because the bargain hunters be bargain hunting. It’s like everything in life, you generally get what you pay for. I’ve seen many post and complain about the higher cost of providers advertising on Tryst/OIC etc. In my experience, if you book on Tryst, cost may be higher, but there are no surprises. Bargain hunting in this hobby will rarely be worth it.

And this is why it will continue to be a the Facebook Marketplace of escorting. We’re getting too many tire-kickers and time wasters from LL. Finding great clients there is just as difficult as finding great providers. Classified sites have their place for casting a wide net and offering an entry point for those just starting. What we need are more curated spaces for high value clients to meet high value providers IMHO.

Totally agree it's insane the amount of fake calls and it's just getting worst... I been on tryst for a bit more then a year and wooow it's 2 different world..
Leolist = hell
Tryst and X = heaven

Angel, if Leolist is so shit compared to Tryst and Twitter, why do you continue to post your ad multiple times a day on Leolist?

I post everywhere what I'm saying that if I compare Leolist to other site and LL it's only getting worst but I am still grateful because I have been able to meet exceptional people and I have amazing clients yes there is also positive from LL but it's not my favorite platform to post my ads

 

[Theredmilf]

Leolist invites a suboptimal confluence of clients looking for last minute dates but who are nowhere near the booking stage, having done no research and in many cases not even having read the ad, so posting there means extra labour that there’s not enough time for if we also want to accommodate a last minute date.

Still, thanks to being locked out of most conventional advertising arenas, we don’t have anything better at the moment for casting a wide net and introducing ourselves to new markets which makes it almost unavoidable for touring providers. It’s just incredibly laborious and frustrating, especially if we’ve already put years into establishing ourselves.

Just like you guys, if we use LL, we need to develop strategies to quickly weed out time wasters and fantasy bookers. I have a pretty good system for myself now but even so, I would say only 1/20 inquiries gets the key to my fantasy suite. But every once in a while, I’ll meet someone truly exceptional who becomes a regular which renews my faith in humanity

So much to say, way too long to write

I'm personally stuck with Leo, however tedious it is, and as I previously gripped about, can't do deposits nor ID screening... as much as I love tryst... never contacted anyone there.

It's not even a monetary consideration at all for tryst... so I'm like a kid looking through a window for cake I can't have

I would love legitimate reviews of clients as well, for my case, in and as much of saying he is good, clean, on time, not a creep, pays, etc... why would anyone need to know my name, etc
The rest is simply do we match, try and see for yourself.

Which brings to an important, but somewhat lost component of this affair - discretion. Sp and clients alike want both. Any verification available can't with utmost certainty ensure ironclad discretion.

I admire you SPs for simply putting yourself out there...

Jokingly, but I'm sure the ref milf is not on anyone's birth certificate and lovechanko is not a typical Slavic last name

So Leo it is unfortunately... I filter out Asian, indo canadian, Latino, middle eastern, native, since there so few of those sps... and then I'm left with less than a page of only like half scams. And surely to miss a potential gem.

But anyone independent in those groups are well known and this is opposed to countless hours of sifting through bs ads.
