In many cities back page is all people have. When they travel to the big cities they still only know Backpage. We can help them become more sophisticated hobbyists by telling them about TEr and p411, but those sites are not practical for the guys from small cities.

In my opinion all advertising is good advertising! The more we are noticed the more likely somebody is to call us sometime in the future when he wants to try somebody new.  When  I ask new clients where they saw my ad, they say, "all over the place".  Backpage brings twice as much traffic to my website as any other site and it has done this consistently for many years.

Of course 9 out of 10 inquiries from Backpage are not legitimate inquiries and do not result in an appointment, where almost 100% of p411 inquiries do, but that still means I have a lot of clients that have found me through Backpage and who have gone on to become excellent clients.

Isn't this why we do screening?  I always screen my clients regardless of where they come from. People who think LE is not looking at TER an  p411 are living in a fantasy world.

Good luck ladies!
