Things to AVOID.

Many people looking at your website are trying to do so as discreetly and even as secretly as possible. They want to minimize cookie trails. They don't want slow-loading pages that can freeze up their computer or put them in a compromising position. They sometimes use dedicated older, retired hardware (older operating systems) to avoid contaminating newer family or work computers with possible viruses and other bits.  

Some people use Proxy services that block a lot of fancy and potentially dangerous or malicious code. E.g., test your site using TOR / Tor Browser to see how it looks and how easy it is to use. If a site doesn't load properly, I close it and move on to the next one.

To reiterate what lopaw said, KISS = Keep It Simple, Stupid!

NO FLASH! - a bane to security

NO JAVA! - too dangerous; many set their browsers to block Java; I think that Chrome blocks Java by default; mobile phones do not run Java

NO AUTOPLAY AUDIO! - When someone clicks on your link, they do not want sexy music blasting through their speakers and into their surroundings (home, work, public transit). Audio should be an opt-in with a warning to set their volume first.

NO AUTOPLAY VIDEO! - Some video feeds can hog bandwidth or CPU and freeze up a computer at the very wrong time. Video should be an opt-in with a well marked button: "Click here to see my video."

AVOID HUGE FILE SIZES - You can get high quality images that aren't humongous and download and display well. We do not need or want HUGE multi-MB High Def pictures that take forever to download and display. (Test using TOR / Tor Browser.)

Provider websites are not Disney or Yahoo News or Amazon. If you want to show off, show what you can do with the lowest level, least demanding tech requirements.  

I have repeatedly suggested that custom-made provider websites offer choices from the Welcome or Home page.

When you look at a providers web site what is it that you are looking for?  
What do you like to see on the web site?
What would you like to see on there web site?  
Or What you don't like on providers web sites.
1) Photos?
2) Rates?
3) Their Bio?
4) Links?
5) Graphics?
6) Comment page?

I have seen many web sites.  Lots of graphics, Girls likes and dislikes, Rates, Gift pages, FAQ's.  I'm not a very creative person and I would like some ideas.  
I myself have just uploaded an all new everything on my site and soon will show it to you :)  I would like to hear what you gentleman would like to see and how you feel about some sites that you do view.  

I have seen some very plain sites, Beautiful sites, Creative sites, and some down right WAY TOO MUCH INFO sites.  

 I would like some input on this and hear your views.  

Thank you :)

What do I like to see, and what will get me to visit you...sometimes two different things.

A TER posting with picture at the bottom will get me to look at your site (and their needs to be reviews.  If there are zero reviews, I'm skipping even looking - this is just me by the way, and my opinion).

I like to see photos.  There should be at least one non-glamor shot of you in the hotel room.  Not a necessity but it helps me gauge on what you really look like.  Blurred photos of face are ok, but not too blurred.  Again, gives me a sense of what you look like.  If you do have blurred face photo, give me a few body shots.

My pet peeve, no full length head to toe standing, face forward photos.  Again, thats a marketing choice.  I know a girl is confident, beautiful, and a great body if i see that photo.  If there are no stomach shots, then I think you're hiding birth scars, fat, or something.  Same with all photos with your hands in the air, then I know you're older and self conscious about sagging tits.  

If you've been doing this long enough, you know the tricks.  Again, a marketing decision on the provider's part.  I can see why you do it, and bring the guy in and then let him decide on the package.  I personally can let a lot slide, just be honest about it.  I'm a face guy, and can forgive a lot as far as body (see thread below).

Rates are good, and check your math.  One hour at 300 and two at 650 doesn't work.  My favorite rates are something like 300 for an hour and 550 for hour and a half - discount for longer time.

A full page bio is unnecessary IMHO.  Just, "I'm a Cleveland girl just trying to make it in the big city" is enough.

I rarely if ever follow the links.

Graphics other than photos are ok, a video even better.

Comments page are helpful if there are no TER reviews, but with a grain of salt because they've been screened or written by the provider herself.

I find a variety of photos helpful.

I try to think of what gets me to see a provider, and its not one thing.  A website is definitely important, just don't over think it.  I'd get feedback from clients on what photos they like.

When it comes to a page it shouldn't  be what fits 1 Client(Hobbyist), But what attracts multiple Clients(Hobbyists). For a provider.......It's all about the benjamines($$$$$) & Not about the Client and sexual pleasure. Although, getting pleased & making the correct amount of Benjamines is the way to go. I do agree with over think it but at the same time don't under think it. And remember the true reason that you are here doings this......The Benjamines & a little bite for the pleasure.

"Rates are good, and check your math.  One hour at 300 and two at 650 doesn't work.  My favorite rates are something like 300 for an hour and 550 for hour and a half - discount for longer time. "

So the discount here is +100 for the additional 30 minutes over the per minute rate? ;-)  (For those not immediately following 300 for an hour is 5 per minute, 5 times 90 is 450 -- or you could just divide 300 by 2 and then add to 300 but...) So maybe 2 hours at 550 or some but not for the 90 minutes.

You're losing you edge GD ;-) Or perhaps just a typo.

I should take my own medicine.  I lost my edge a long time ago,and never hire me as an editor.  I ALWAYS make a mistake, especially two periods or double spaces.  Now my math sucks, too. I'll attribute it to being a big tipper.

Your home city, your contact info, rates, availability, photos and your services.  Links to any reviews

Where you are located.  You'd be amazed how many sites leave off that little detail or give a rather nebulous description like "tri-state area".  A lot of states have cites with the same name, so just saying Salem, or Springfield, etc. doesn't always help either.

A way to contact you is always appreciated too, and a FAQ list detailing any specific rules, means of screening, etc.

Always asking clients questions about marketing escorts see on websites and profiles.

I like an expansion of the P411 site.  
It lists height, interests, education and lots of information helpful for me to make a decision.

First of all, learn how to spell correctly. When you are talking about someone's website. The word "THERE" is wrong. It's "THEIR".

GaGambler551 reads

After having had the displeasure of reading several of your posts that look like they were written by a third grader using the internet version of crayon, you don't honestly have the gall to point out the "one" small spelling mistake made by the OP, do you?

Of course you do. How is this for misspelling a word? Go Fick Yourself

There are three things that are essential: photos, rates, and contact information. Other things may be entertaining, but not necessary.

Please don't just provide a handful of photos. The more the better. As mentioned before, at least one frontal full-length photo is essential. I recently booked with a provider whose photos showed parts--a leg in one, boobs in another, etc---but no full length. If she'd showed just one full length nude shot, I wouldn't have booked with her. Try to give us an idea of what your entire body looks like. And do minimal blurring on the face, as also mentioned before.

I like wish list pages, as I like to bring wine or other drinks to the party if the lady likes them.

This is just a pet peeve of mine, but keep the writing simple. If you're not a good writer, find someone who is to help you. Don't try to impress us with 50 cent words. One site I visited recently looked like someone ate a dictionary then threw up on the pages. I had to look up many of the words, and I'm very literate. We're not looking to date William F. Buckley (or at least I hope not).

The design of a site can make a big difference in how you're perceived. If you're looking for top dollar, don't go cheap on the design. Kaori Kiss has a simple but classy looking website. I think Drea of Las Vegas has a very attractive site: simple elegant design with an appealing photo of her on each page.

Too many bells and whistles can cause incompatibility with certain browsers. If you're doing anything more than static pages, have the design tested across all browsers and operating systems. You don't want to exclude customers because they can't see your site.  

One more thing, again echoing a previous poster's comments. If you're showing an ad on TER, include a photo. If there's no photo, I won't click through to the advertiser's site or to her review. The odds of me finding a provider I'm attracted to in the TER ads aren't 100%, so there's not much sense in adding extra effort only to find out I'm not interested.

...we are both lady and gentlemen hobbyists here. Just wanted to let you know that.

Now to answer your question - I know that I am very much in the minority on this, but I highly value a provider's FAQ page because it is there that I hope to find out what her clientele preferences are. Otjer than that in general I agree with others to KISS- keep it simple. Too much clutter and disarray will have me abandoning the site quickly.

I will remember that :) Thank you for pointing this out and thank you for all the input :) kissess

This is what I look for in the typical order that I look for it.  Bottom line is your website should make it easy for me to figure out: a) if I want to see you (looks, some personality but don't overdo it, rates, and geography); b) how to book a session with you; and c) what to do for you to make the session go smoothly.

1.  Photo gallery.  Look at her photos to see if she is what I'm looking for.  Similar to others, I prefer lots of photos from different angles and a mix of pro and candid / selfie shots.  Please make the photos easy to peruse if you can.  The more clicks it takes to navigate photos, the more frustrating it can be for clients.

2.  Geography.  Where are you based out of and what is your upcoming travel schedule, which should be as kept up to date as you possibly can.  It still surprises me that girls forget this.  I don't have a teleporter, so where TF are you?

3. Bio.  Personally, I'm not one who likes a long biographical narrative, although some do really enjoy the get to know you aspect of this.  I won't read pages of frilly blathering or tons of blogging.  I find seeing your physical measurements helpful (height, weight, bust, etc.).  I usually find a short (1-2 paragraph max) personal statement helpful.  Are you a grad student or college girl?  Traveling girl?  Brand yourself as a mature MILF?  Do you have some ethnic tie that I might find attractive (Russian, Latina, etc.)?  This is basic branding and marketing.  Just some basic blurbs are all I need, nothing fancy.  As others have said, if you have trouble with this get a friend to help.  

4.  Rates & logistics.  Any incall / outcall limitations should be made known here.  If Greek is extra and/or you need advance notice for it, it's a good idea to mention that here.  Try to give as much info as you can.  If you offer 90 min, post your 90 min rate in addition to your 1 hour and 2 hour rate.  Otherwise, if I want 90 minutes I will have to ask you to confirm or (worse) guess.  Also scheduling limits should be here.  Only work weekdays and not weekends?  Let me know that so I don't waste time trying to book you for Saturday night.

5.  Contact / booking procedure.  What is your preferred method of contact?  Cell phone?  Call or voice mail or text?  Email?  Online booking form?  Let it be known or I'm going to have to guess and I might not guess right, which could waste both of our time.  Also, let me know your verification procedure.  Do you accept verification through P411, DC, TER whitelist, or some other method?  Any special verification steps?  Let me know here.  

6.  Etiquette.  If you have any particular preferences or pet peeves about etiquette, you need to make them very clear on your website.  Otherwise, I will just assume you go by the "standard" etiquette and you have no right to complain.  And my subjective notion of "standard" etiquette might not be the same as yours.  

Thanks for seeking client input on this.  I hope your website turns out great.  Good luck

We're trying to decide whether we want to give you money. Why add an extra hoop to jump through and make it more difficult to see the pictures and get the info needed to make that decision?

Yeah that's a good point. Depending on where you get your site, the domain owner or whatever the hell it is called might make all your pics password protected to try to get us to give THEM money. I've seen at least a couple ladies on here saying they didn't know the pics were behind a password until someone told them. They had to send an email to admins or whoever to get it fixed.  

Just look at your site once in a while when you're not logged in so you see it how we see it.

Many people looking at your website are trying to do so as discreetly and even as secretly as possible. They want to minimize cookie trails. They don't want slow-loading pages that can freeze up their computer or put them in a compromising position. They sometimes use dedicated older, retired hardware (older operating systems) to avoid contaminating newer family or work computers with possible viruses and other bits.  

Some people use Proxy services that block a lot of fancy and potentially dangerous or malicious code. E.g., test your site using TOR / Tor Browser to see how it looks and how easy it is to use. If a site doesn't load properly, I close it and move on to the next one.

NO JAVA! - too dangerous; many set their browsers to block Java; I think that Chrome blocks Java by default; mobile phones do not run Java

NO AUTOPLAY AUDIO! - When someone clicks on your link, they do not want sexy music blasting through their speakers and into their surroundings (home, work, public transit). Audio should be an opt-in with a warning to set their volume first.

NO AUTOPLAY VIDEO! - Some video feeds can hog bandwidth or CPU and freeze up a computer at the very wrong time. Video should be an opt-in with a well marked button: "Click here to see my video."

AVOID HUGE FILE SIZES - You can get high quality images that aren't humongous and download and display well. We do not need or want HUGE multi-MB High Def pictures that take forever to download and display. (Test using TOR / Tor Browser.)

1. Gallery; I want to know what she looks like, even if I can't see her face

2.  Rates.  I have a spending limit.

3.  If appearance and rates look good, I want a little something that will give me some insight into her personality without being long-winded.

A couple other pointers:  Make it clear whether or not women or couples are on the table.  Have a "wishlist" page in case someone wants to know what kind of wine or lingerie you like.

from most to least number of clicks

Home page (obviously)
videos/stats are at an all time high over the past 30 days because of the TER link, so I can't really put that into the mix.
1 - Photography
2 - Benefaction
3 - Calendar/Location
4 - Friends
5 - Blog Page
6 - Schedule a date
7 - From your own lips (review blips)
And then the specific blogs going back to the beginning of my blog entries.

As far as way too much information on websites, I thought the same thing; however, the results I am getting are phenomenal in attracting people I am compatible with on the first inquiry. It also discourages/properly communicates to people with whom might not be compatible.  

Some have decided based on my website to wait - so they could build up courage to book lol. But once they did, they became awesome regulars - and we get along great/have loads of fun. The odd ball who doesn't research my companionship style, or deliberately ignored it, is very infrequent / a rare occurrence, but it does happen now and again. Other than that, the very detailed website was an excellent choice for me. I'm having a great time. :)

Top referrers are TER and Twitter, as they were well before that front page spot. So it seems guys who utilize TER are reading the majority of the site. My bounce rate was at 10% in July.

-- Modified on 8/29/2016 1:22:17 PM

I know that I always look for these same top 3:  
1 - Photography
2 - Benefaction (Rates)
3 - Calendar/Location  

I also like reading her Bio to find out more and perhaps to learn what makes her "tick".

The two things that annoy me when missing are:
1  When a lady does not mention her home city (helpful to those of us who travel).
2  When the lady only mentions her short 1 hour rates and perhaps an overnight rate, but not her 2, 3 or 4 hour rates -- this is a tough question to ask...and needless to do so as it should be on her site.

-- Modified on 8/29/2016 4:19:36 PM

things i look for:

 1) nice, simple, elegant pictures.  yes, full body shots, even if face is cropped or blurred.  don't make the user have to click several times to get to a picture (click on galleries, click on which gallery, click on which picture...that's 3 clicks before i even get to see what you look like).

some ladies have their pictures as backgrounds to their various pages as well as galleries... not necessary but i like that.

 2) rate page, clear and concise.  mentioned above but i have to reiterate:  CHECK YOUR MATH!  if you don't want to give a break for multiple hours, then just make the price a multiple of your hourly rate, simply algebra.  1 hour = x, 2 hours = 2x, etc.  or if you want (and this always attracts me and makes me lean towards seeing a lady) give a bit of a discount for multiple hours, ie, 1 hour = x, 2 hours = x minus 50, 3 hours = x minus 100, or something like that.

whatever you do, DO NOT engage in hooker math, where it's more expensive per minute to see you for one 2 hour session than two 1 hour sessions.  other industries lower the price per unit when sold in bulk, i think a provider's rate per minute should reflect that.

however, don't get too caught up in that.  just make sure you're not charging a customer more if he sees you for multiple hours.  that turns me off completely.

 3) etiquette page:  if there's something you absolutely need done, make sure to spell it out somewhere on your site.  do you require email contact initially, no phone, no text?  do  you require the donation placed in the bathroom at the beginning of the date?  do you require at least 3 provider references upon initial contact?  make sure anything like this is  all clearly mentioned.

 4) said above, but i agree:  the simpler a site, the better.  less is more.  i don't really need videos and a drake soundtrack playing when i visit.

 5) most important for me at least, make sure navigation on your site is easy and easily understood.  it took me hours to figure out that the little square of parallel lines in the upper corner of a woman's site is the navigation menu.  make it clear!

i also agree, a ter ad w/o a picture is one i shine on

Maybe not for everyone, but I really like to see a picture or two of you smiling. I know your pro photographers tells you to look sexy and everyone thinks that means serious.  When the client opens the door and sees you for the first time, do you smile or frown?  Show me a picture of what I'm going to see. Many ladies put in their bios or info that they are fun and happy to do what they do etc etc, then there is not 1 picture of them smiling like they really do enjoy this. I want the lady to have fun with me, so I hope she smiles a lot during the session ( along with gasps and OH GOD YES! )
Keep the photo page simple AND CURRENT.  As was mentioned, not too many clicks to get to an actual picture. And, Puh-leeze,  no selfies taken in front of the mirror. It looks like you just decided to try hooking this morning.  
Hope that helps

And, if I may put in a suggestion that is a pet peeve, although not really for a web site:

if you run a visiting ad on pfouroneone on similar, CANCEL THE FUCKING AD after you leave. Sorry, didn't mean to shout, but that happens a lot.

Other than, all my suggestions are in the other postings.

smooth or overgrown down there.  Then I can decide without reading a bunch of reviews.  

-- Modified on 8/29/2016 4:28:57 PM

Site should be sharp and crisp (solid contrasts in color and images).  I like to see more than 2 images.  A group of daytime shots, night time shots and maybe seasonal/holiday.  I like to read a bio of more than two sentences. I like to see what your likes are, dislikes are and your wish list (gifts, if any).  Of course you should list your rates and screening requirements.....oh, and a "contact me" link, too.

D.

Perhaps you've already considered this but it's probably just as important to think about who you want to attract as a client (what type of service are you aiming for?) and will they be they ones that can really appreciate what you provide?


-- Modified on 8/29/2016 5:48:40 PM

Nice to see other photos a little more about yourself,  also rates if you don't have that on an ad

I got stuff to do. Getting to the point would be best for me

Thank you all : ladies, gentlemen and ladies hobbyist for all the infomation what you give me.

I have a lot of work to do :)
