like I can't find where to add my url link.
as a new provider I am having a hard time categorizing my website in order to have it reviewed and approved by ter moderators so I can post an ad.
I'd suggest you look at some websites of providers near you to see how they did theirs. Hope that helps. Maybe some of our more computer knowledgable people can offer suggestions.

I have linked the Provider Ad Posting info from the Self-Help Center. Click the link then scroll down to "Personal Site Requirements for ad posting". Your site organization is up to you. The requirement is the TER seal or banner. It has to be on the first or second page of your site and it must link back to TER. Read all the info in the link. If necessary use the "Contact Us" link at the bottom of any page and ask TER for help.
You can find the Self-Help Center at any time by going to the "Site Map" link at the bottom of any page. Click on it. Find Info & Policy. The Self-Help Center link is there.

...but try this. Click the Site Reviews tab at the top of the page. Then look just below the tabs. 3rd from the far left is "reviews by service type". Click that. You'll get a drop down menu of service types (aka categories). I'm assuming you're an escort so click escorts. Then select your city. Then click go. You will get a list of escort's sites in your city. Look just below the search engine box. You will see three dark long "buttons". The first is labled, add your site to this category. Click that button. You'll get a form to complete. See if that's what you're looking to do.
TER has a habit of explaining things in various places while not using the same terminology throughout with confusion being the result. It can be frustrating to say the least. If you haven't thrown a few things and pulled out a handful or two of hair you're really doing quite well. LoL
I hope this was helpful.
