Thanks for the reply I have introduce a few of my regulars to this site and they were told they had to be reviewed to review me lol seems like a catch 22 but I'll take your advise and keep posting to the regional board . I notice most people on there are from new York City and I'm from upstate ny. Also is there a way to post a picture to my profile ?

In the self help center, you will find the answers to many questions. To get a review, you must see a member of this site. After your date, ask if he is a member. If he is, ask him if he would mind posting a review of your time together. If he's not a member, introduce him to the site. Start posting regularly on your local regional board, but don't include your site link if you are starting a thread, that would be considered an ad. You are only allowed to post an ad on your local ad board once every 7 days. If you reply to a post, you can include your site link. When you get a review, you will then have a profile and ID number, and you can ask for limited VIP membership and to have your profile linked to your handle so it will be there each time you post something.

You can't add a picture to your profile but you can make use of your regional ad board and put a photo in your ads. You can also generate interest by posting on the photo only board.
Joining in the discussions on the regional boards close to you can give guys a chance to get to know you a little and you can link your website or ad to your posts when you respond on a thread.
As long as the guys are members of this site, they can review you. It's free to join. However, to read the good stuff on reviews and see her rates, they must have VIP membership. Reviews earn the reviewer 15 free VIP days.
Sorry, Mya, you can't post a pic on your profile, but you can post links to your ads which may have your picture in them. You can also post a pic on the daily photo thread.

...mispoken or misunderstood. Here's why I say that. If one of your clients is not a member of TER but he joins (it's free to join) and writes you a review he will be a first time reviewer. His review here would likely be your first review on TER. In that situation TER may hold his review of you until you have more clients write reviews or he writes reviews of other providers. This is a way they try to insure you and he are legitimate. Though neither of you are "new" you are new to TER. The comment "need to be reviewed to review you" means and should have said they need to have written some reviews in order for their review of you to be approved and posted. This happens from time to time. TER doesn't want the review to be by your boyfriend just trying to help your business by writing a biased review or some such.
They should go ahead and join TER. Then write the review of you. It will get you and them started. You can place ads here on your TER regional ad board and have some mongers that are already TER members see and review you.
You and they will be helped by reading the Self-Help Center and the Review FAQ'S.
Welcome and good luck.
