Posted October 2, 2014 When viewing a Providers website, do you have trouble navigating the pages, reading the font, or get blown away by all the glitz and glam? Do you like a web site to be glamorous and elegant, or is simple and basic more preferred? If a new provider in the hobby was looking to set up her own website, what advice or recommendations do you have for her? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 2, 2014 I prefer a simple website but that doesn't mean it can't be elegant as well. When I visit a providers site I am looking for pictures, rates, contact info, a menu if she's comfortable posting it and any FAQs she wants to put out there. I'm usually browsing from a mobile device so some of the more glitzy sites are very hard or impossible to navigate. Keeping mobile devices in mind when creating your site would probably be good. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 2, 2014 Whatever you do, the default should be set for SOUND OFF. Websites that fire up with music, often out of character for the reader, or worse - sexy enticements, could get folks in trouble. I've crossed several gals off my list for this. Navigation should be simple! As previously said, the site should be designed for mobile use. Keep the visual space constraints of a small screen in mind. Drop-down menus don't work well with some mobile devices. Information needed is: rates, contact data, services available, rules ( likes & dislikes), and photos. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 2, 2014 Yes, please keep it simple. I know that all the fancy bells and whistles you can load up on a website is often so enticing to you ladies that they can't resist using them all. I mean really, do I need a string of hearts following my curser around a lady's site. Music is nice but as has been pointed out it's only nice when I want it not when I don't. Those sites with all the bells and whistles soon become unwieldy as well as time consuming to download. Keep in mind that not all of us dash out to buy the latest electronic gizmo so there may be some older slower systems searching your web site and all those bells and whistles just make them run slower and I've been known to say "to hell with waiting for this let's try somewhere else." For all professions not just this one, so business owners keep this advice in mind. ...Happy Hobbying... ...Crazy Horse... 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted October 2, 2014 (edited) Wow. Thanks for the replies. Definitely going to take all your recommendations and implement them the best I can.<snip>. 88 is meaningless. Just a recommendation made by yahoo when I set up the email. my brother was born in 88 so maybe I'll just go with that. Lol. So didn't put too much thought into creating the handle.. is that the right term? Was born in 86. Maybe should have went with that. I'm a little unsure and nervous to share things. I don't want to get boinked. Lol Ask away freely though. Edited October 3, 2014 by Kaduk General in scope posting... 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 2, 2014 a simple site with some pictures (they don't need to be nude) that can make me visualize spending time with you, rates that are consistent with your ads, a menu, and some contact info. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 3, 2014 Lots and lots of pictures. Nudes, non-nudes, whatever. But make sure they are current (I love the sites where the pictures are organized by the date they were taken). And as few words as possible. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 3, 2014 I agree with keeping mobile users in mind. I do almost all browsing on a phone now. Having a mobile site makes things easier for many people as smart phones are becoming a more popular platform. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 3, 2014 Ah, jeez, use the search function. Question asked and answered a million times. Your 400 links to your 670 diff. contact sites take up half the space in your posts. I get it, you wanna get your name out there, but do it in a more subtle fashion. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 3, 2014 Simple is best. I think generally what you have is just right. Maybe quicker transitions, easy browsing for mobile could help some, more pictures someday (just every once in a while, enough are there now). But right now it is basically perfect for what I look for! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 4, 2014 (edited) In what way do you mean by easy browsing for mobile... is choosing the next page from the menu on top not easy... there is no problem changing it. no help was used and was the 1st ever made. LOL. [snip} [snip} Edited October 4, 2014 by boink36 Advertising removed. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 4, 2014 I've done hundreds of websites over the years. All websites are about delivering the information needed in the most efficient way. For an escort that's simple, the info you're wanting to deliver is minimal. It's all about good pictures and answering a few questions, rates, scheduling, basic FAQ stuff. As a Pro Photographer myself, ask yourself when looking at ads - what separates the girls asking $$$ vs ones asking $? Lots of quality pictures, find a photographer you can work with and spend a few weeks taking shots in different lighting, settings, outfits, and you in different moods. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
