For the more experienced, I doubt search criteria for someone as well respected and positively reviewed as you (and Teri) would really be important. I would think the more experienced hobbyists would just search for you both by name.
Speaking only for myself as one who has not had the pleasure of meeting you and who only occasional hobbies outside of my ATF, - yes, I include age in my searches. I prefer a 35+ provider. Other search criteria important to me include services, are photos accurate, independent or agency status, incall/outcall, and ethnicity.
Action shots do nothing for me, nor do glamour shots - I prefer a recent photo that represents the provider's physique with enough allure to get my imagination going. About two years ago (or maybe last year), you (Madison) had some great shots, at least for me; one in K9 on bed with blurred face (never liked the blurred face but nice pose).
Lastly, I do not use smoking as search criteria.
Been thinking about some things for awhile. So I am just going to ask for some honest opinions.
Teri's post last week or so about age got me thinking. This upcoming week I will need to update my profile to the next age category. Is age a big part of your search engine when looking for certain criteria on a provider?
Pictures. Do you enjoy seeing real, explicit pictures of what someone would look like after a sex marathon? or do you prefer the glamour shot photos?
How important is it for a provider to be honest on her profile about being a smoker? Even if she goes to great lengths to pass as a non-smoker.
Thank you,
Madison
recent photgraphs 6 months or less. Not photos from 1-5 years ago.
I understand blurying the eyes for some providers need to do that to keep themselves anonymous.
I would rather see pics of a woman before she has marathon sex.
She can be a smoker as long as her place and person doesn't smell like smoke.
I prefer older women. I won't see anyone under 30. One of the hottest women I have ever been with was a civie, swinger situation. She was 50, and looked just like Dyan Cannon in her prime.
As for pics I prefer glamour so long as they are not photoshopped to where it looks like a bait and switch. I don't care about smoking as I am a cigar smoker.
Madison by the way you are a hottie.
Age is not that important as long as I pleased with the visual image I see. Pretty, fit, sexy and alluring. Which goes hand in hand with the next question. I prefer more of what I would see if we ran into each other out on the town in the evening. I want to know what you look like not what a glam artist makes you look like. For me I only want to see the sweaty marathon look if I was part of getting you there.
Smoking is important to me but if you can really mask the smell and taste then it's not a big deal. Believe it or not you can taste the nicotine while daty if you are a heavy smoker.
Age is not as important as chemistry and appearance. When I first read your post, the first two ladies that come to mind as two of my ATF's were both in their early to mid forties. They were fit, attractive, confident and great sexual partners. As a matter of fact I would say that my favorite group of women tends to fall in the 30-45 range. Yes I love to see a young hot body once in a while but when I want some "Sexual Healing" I am more inclined to look for a mature lover and not a young knock my socks off, need the chiropractor afterwards gymnast.
As for pictures, I am not a fan of explicit photos in ads. I love photos that show great legs, nice butts and some lovely breasts but the facial shots, gaping hole and other explicit shots leave me cold.
Smoking...for me it is a real turn off to smell it at all. In the room, in her hair or on her breath or clothes. If a woman can fool me, great. I certainly have been fooled on much greater things.
Overall, I want to look at an ad and feel the provider is being as upfront as reasonable. None of us is perfect, we all age, if we are lucky. Some of the most fun times I've had were with women who didn't fit "my profile" but who knew how to get me to relax and enjoy them.
Probably the biggest single thing for me is that when I arrive, I feel the lady and accomodations are safe, clean and unhurried.
Hope this helps!
Good Hunting!

A sexy lady is like a fine wine, only improves with age while a not so fine lady or wine dosen't improve with age.
As for pictures, a lady that appears like a "lady" is always a turn-on. But I don't mind a naughty picture mixed in at all.
Being a non-smoker, I prefer for the lady to be smoke free, but I can overlook a little smoke if she is a "smoking hot" lady.
I am going to lie down and try to get rid of a headache and catch up later. I appreciate the honest replies and hope to see some more when I get up. Madison
Age doesn't bother me. I don't think I can tell a girls age plus or minus 5-10 years anyway. I will say that the 30+ girls seem to please me more.
I like for pictures to be accurate and not try to hit any little bulges. They don't have to be explicit or glamor shots. Just an honest representation.
As long as she doesn't smell or taste like smoke I don't care. Actually I rarely look at that.
Hope to see ya soon.
Age? yes & no.
I'm not particular about age as long as she is well kept, in shape and attractive. Sometimes I have a particular age I'm looking for younger or more mature.
Honesty is best, don't fib too much on it.
I prefer real pictures. Glamour shots only lead to unrealistic expectations. Even when browsing porn online, I much prefer amateur stuff over professional.
Even though you go to great lengths to hide the fact you smoke, non-smokers know.
As a newbie, here is what I look for:
1) Is the provider closer to my age - above 40 - I said closer, not my age!!
2) I enjoy pictures that show the provider as she would appear as she or I enter the door.
3) While I do not smoke, as long as the smell is not too strong, I do not have a problem with a little smoke smell.
I'll take these in order:
Age is very significant. I am not interested in a beginner in the business, someone with enough experience to understand the differences between clients and how to mange the time and events during a session. I probably won't consider someone under 30.
Photos should be sexy (not gynecological) and MUST be accurate , meaning not photoshopped or if you have a little bit of a belly, don't hide it. Most of us have looked at enough photos by now to see through the hand or clothing placed to hide something (we're just not sure how much is being hidden). I don't need to see the entire face but if it is possible to maintain some confidentiality and show lips, I appreciate it because kissing is important. Also, bj's are important and I like to fantasy leading up to the session of what those lips will be like even though there is more to bj's than the lips.
You should be honest about smoking. I've been with ladies that smoke and try their damnedest to hide it but it doesn't go away. However, a faint flavor of marijuana is an aphrodisiac for me (I don't smoke anymore but am very nostalgic about it). I detected it on a lady one time by accident and loved it. In fact, requested she do it at our next session if she was comfortable doing it.
Hope this helps.

Age is not as important as appearance. Real pictures are very important, do not like the photo-shoped. I can't help but say that I liked your picture with a dick in your mouth! Just wish it was mine. I don't smoke and don't like the taste or smell of smoke. Got to get a double with you and Brooke some day!
almost all of the ladies I've seen are over 30. For what I want to see in a photo, I would like to see a good representation of who I'll see when I get to the session.
#1 Honesty
#2 Personality
Everything else is just icing on the cake!
Personally prefer not too young!
As a photographer, I hate to see so called "glamor shots" which are air brushed and edited to death because you have no idea what the lady really is like.
I could make a fat sow look good with Photoshop, but do not do that for erotic photos. There is something to be said for honesty in advertising.
I prefer females in the 35+ range who take care of their body and have the intellect and personality to match.
These are good questions and I thank you for asking them and giving us a venue to answer.
1. Age...doesn't matter too much but I prefer 28-40. However, I don't like being misled either. Last week I saw a 35 year old who claimed to be 29.
2. I do not like explicit photos. Nor do I care for Glamor Shots. Just a nice, clean photo which doesn't have you in improbable positions looking silly. I'm a sucker for a pretty face, so if you can show your face, all the better. The type of pictures I appreciate can be seen by Isabelle on Eros.com Great photos.
3. Smoking is a major turn off for me and I don't think it can be hidden. The smell gets in your hair, clothes, apartment, hands and teeth, yes, teeth. It's a walk-away item for me.
4. I don't demand perfection. A normal, pretty, confident woman who dresses modestly and likes to laugh....those are the ones I try to find.

Well I think honesty goes along way with most of us guys who partake in this hobby. I am one of the guys that has no problem walking away from a bait and switch or a provider that misrepresents herself prior to our meeting. As to your question of age, I usually am a lush for the hot younger hard bodies, but I think that is more for the visual satisfaction. If I am looking for that true GFE hot and steamy session I am going to crack the book of MILF's, just due to their experience and maturity. Plus older women are usually more un-inhibited and not as shy as the younger.
As to the pictures, I find that it is more intriguing to see a girl in regular every day jeans and things made to be sexy (ie. shirt showing mid-drift, jeans barely unbuttoned showing the tops of her panties, etc.) There are certin postions that providers pose in that are a big turn off to me. One being covering her stomach, as tho she is hiding a belly.
I have not yet had a chance to visit you, but it is obvious that you have a good reputation in the industry, so I think that your history in Atlanta will speak for it's self with all smiles.
I have sometimes, searched on age alone...
glamour shot are nice, but I prefer pics that are more honest about body types. meaning no special angels that make you look thinner or clothing that would hide imperfections. I think one pic showing front, another showing side, and finally a last one showing from behind would be sufficient. most important of all, update pics often. I think your clients/potential clients would appreciate you much more.
extremely important about being upfront about being a smoker...no matter how much one tries to hide it, I can always tell.
honesty is always the best policy, you will be much more appreciated.
good luck and good questions!
look at this link.
I think provider ads should only have 3 pics, anything more is well icing on the cake but not required. front, side, back..that's all I need to see. the provider should be wearing a bikini to clearly represent her body type.
I can show you better than I can tell ya, just check out the link...
I'd give her a 6 in looks
you would wouldn't you? :P
I'm not saying the woman in the link is hawt, I'm saying those 3 poses are what I would prefer to see in a provider ad.
For the more experienced, I doubt search criteria for someone as well respected and positively reviewed as you (and Teri) would really be important. I would think the more experienced hobbyists would just search for you both by name.
Speaking only for myself as one who has not had the pleasure of meeting you and who only occasional hobbies outside of my ATF, - yes, I include age in my searches. I prefer a 35+ provider.

Lastly, I do not use smoking as search criteria.
I prefer more mature women. It has been my experience they know what intimacy is. If anything, younger 20's would have great reviews to get my attention.
Prefer pics of the real you. Sex marathon pics...no. I had rather see jeans and a t-shirt.
I smoke so one who smokes does not bother me. I too worry non smoking providers will not like to DFK because of it.
Pics get you noticed and pursued. Personality and performance keeps them coming back.
Age is really not that important for me...as long as it is within a few years......as I only date mature women. Remember, alot of providers indicate a minimum age that they want....therefore it seems only fair for the guy to get an honest read on the provider.
I personally don't like explicit pictures. Some other guys dick in in your mouth doesn't do a thing for me. Not really a turn on. I am interested in external characteristics...and a sense for intrinsic beauty.
Smoking.......well, I say....be honest on that. It is what it is.....if there is enough reason for a guy to see a provider...then smoking in this arena will not be a swinger.
BTW, have I told you lately.....you are wonderful to be with!!!!!???????????
What I am taking from this to that an honest profile is best. So I will continue to do what is right for me. I will change my age category on Thursday to reflect my new age 41.
I will leave yes smokes, but not during session. Even though I go to great lengths with fresh hair, hands washed, teeth brushed, mouth rinsed, fresh clothes, etc. It is part of who I am right now. Not proud of my addiction, but like someone else said. It is what it is.
And pictures. I like professional pics and have always liked my pics before any touch-ups were done. The touch-ups are usually laugh lines on my face. My body hasn't needed any. I think the majority doesn't like my explicit pics. So I wont' be posting any more of those on a public forum. Unless it's of me and another girl maybe.
Thank you so much for taking the time to help me.

Madison this was a great post...
I have just done all new pics and look on my site... I was a little more than nervous to put real every day photos not all lingerie and action... Not one of them is touched up... I had decided that 'truth in advertising' was the best answer for me... My phone is ringing more so I guess it was the right choice...
Your post is something that I hope lots of ladies read and take note of...
I had a thought about the age thing... I had a lady work with me last year... She (before we met) advertised at 33... She was attractive and could pass for that... I convienced her to tell the truth about her age... She was 40... My selling point to her was she could be an average 30 something or a smoking hot 40 year old...
It worked for her...
xoxox

Probably looking for a more complete answer. OK.
No, age is not really an issue, but honesty would be. Don't claim an age you haven't seen in an age, even if you might be able to pass for it.
Pictures on the other hand do play a big part in my searches because, let's face it, physical attraction is a big part of the chemistry equation. I see provider with great reviews, great looks, and great pictures, but I don't happen to find her attractive. That doesn't mean anything about the provider, it's simply a matter of personal taste. I like glamour shots, but not if they are uber-touched up. What's the point? I saw one provider whose pictures were so fixed, I hardly recognized the real her. The real her was beautiful (again in MHO), so I didn't understand why she would alter her appearance so much. Maybe it has more to do with her self esteem than it has to do with anything else. I absolutely LOVE the pictures you post of your oral services. Ouch!
Hobbiest tastes vary almost as widely as the hobbiests. I see pictures of providers that take me aback, and not in a good way. I wonder to myself, who would want to be with her? But human sexuality has a broad spectrum, otherwise certain gene pools would have dried up long ago. I just don't get the idea of any provider trying present herself as anything other than who and what she is. Everyone's happier.
Same with smoking. I've never smoked and personally, the smell of cigarette smoke makes me a little sick. But I know that I have been with providers that smoke. With most, I couldn't tell from my session with them, and I thank them for that. A few I could, to varying degrees. I can stand to smell a hint of it in the location as opposed to tasting it in her mouth. I would hope that a provider would take the same hygenic care that she would when inviting DATY. Clean, sweet and tasty is best.
My impression of you from your reviews and your website is that you have all these bases covered, so not to worry.
I appreciate the correct age reference, but I prefer accurate pictures. There was a time I used to smoke, and now I don't like the smell of it so you are doing the right things to mask it.
We have never met, but the most important thing to me is fresh pussy. There are people I refuse to see again because of body odor. This usually happens after a high mileage day, but I know something can be done.
So if you were 50 and smelled clean I would not care about the two items.
NO...age is NOT a big factor...except under 18 and a fossil! I check reviews for performance...CONSISTANT performance...no YMMV allowed! Pics....Don't show a closeup of your naked kitty! Looks like a CL shot. Lingerie, swimwear, COCKtail dress, with and without some T&A showing! NO shots with you standing in front of a mirror with your cellphone camera LMAO!
I don't care if you smoke, just don't smell like you've been in a closet for 4 hours smoking with 10 friends...in your profile...don't even mention it! If you're also a drunk...don't tell anyone, but don't yak during a BJ or pass out while in mish. I think that covers all of your ???? 
but I like the action shots. I am not a fan of the glamour shots. We know it's not what she is going to look like when I show up. Unless, of course, she's goign to hit glamour shots right before I show up [insert derision smilie here]. I like "regular" shots (jeans, t-shirt, undies, sundresses, etc). But show me a couple of action shots (BBBJ, penetration, facials, toys, whatever). If seeing another guys cock in the ladies mouth bothered me I wouldn't like porn as much as I do I look at it like a view of something to come (pure pun intended). It's helps get the juices flowing and the imagination fired up.
Then again, I'm a self-acknowledged perv and sex addict so ...
As always, be safe and have fun
