I'm still new to this hobby, so what I consider strange, others may consider to be the norm.

It must work fine for them. It offers more privacy and they can be more selective in whom they choose to entertain .
They may have operated in another capacity  prior and found that this works best for them at this time.  

Thanks, april_luv. I've looked at several thousand provider websites, maybe more, seeking out ones that I'm attracted to, and this is the first time I've encountered this situation.

protecting self from being outed etc. So I understand that some want to protect themselves. Do I think that it is annoying for the guys and keeps many from contacting her? Yes. Do I think it is too much? Yes, but that is just me.

funny when someone puts together a website advertising their "product" and then restricts people from seeing it.

That is an incredibly difficult process. But every girl has to do what makes HER feel comfortable. Look at the risks we take as providers. We don't know you FROM A CAN OF PAINT when you contact us. You could be a cop, the craigslist killer, a crazy, anything! So I can understand her need for discretion, she could be a professional - not everyone does this full time. She could have kids. She could be going through a divorce. Etc. There are so many variables that go into make the decision on how you screen clients, and every girl has their way. I personally attempt to make it simple for the hobbyist, while still feeling comfortable with who I am meeting. There is a point on both ends of the spectrum. I understand the hobbyists hesitation to share it, since he doesn't know ME from a can of paint, but in a way the hobbyiest has the upper hand. You are stronger than us most of the time, you have us alone. You have the power to walk in and decide you change your mind. You could very damn well be a cop.  

Oh I agree. If you want to push business, then at least give guys an idea of what they are dealing with. However sometimes us gals leave up certain things (such as P411 profile) purely for the regulars to contact us. You ask why I say that? Many guys are not so suave on how they hobby and use their own phones. So they can't save the contacts.

They do not want to see just any gent who can fill out their screening form.
So,they password protect their website and a gent has to be verified just to get access to their website.
I know a few ladies who do this but they were getting ready to retire and wanted to be selective on who they saw.Not saying the provider's website you were trying to access is possibly retiring but obviously she wants to restrict people who have access to her site.It could be different reasons it might be for safety or just that the provider wants to have more control over who has access to her website.

It makes screening much easier.  

Maybe it's because I spent some time in sales. I guess if you don't need any new customers it's fine to be selective. It also might be that I do a lot of research before contacting a new lady and if I can't get at least a little information, I tend to just move on.
One local gal has her photos password protected, I was on the fence as to see her. She sent me the access to her pics and I looked at them a couple of times, becoming more interested, then BOOM she "pulled the plug" and cancelled my ability to look at them. I am talking a few days. Not a big deal, but I didn't contact her.

If you really want to book, she has just told you that you don't meet her screening requirements.  There are many who will see you without 3 references, but this lady apparently will not and she doesn't see the need to open her site to those who don't meet her requirements for a date.  That is really the bottom line.  She is probably telling you that she is not interested in seeing you without 3 references, so there is no point in "looking" at her site.  There could be many reasons for this approach.  She could be having an issue with a stalker, or could have been outed previously, or could just be very low profile.  She could have a comfortable level of business with regulars and not really need to take on many new clients.  While it is not the norm, it doesn't really matter whether it makes sense to you, or me, or anyone else.  It is what it is.

Her screening is what it is.  If it's to much for you move on.  If you want to jump thru all the hoops have at it.  

Or, you can give me your full name and employment lol. Which would most prefer? Sorry, but I have too much to lose to broadcast to the masses. There is nothing on my site (information wise) that one can't find on both TER and P411. Oh wait, except for MORE revealing photos which I don't feel are necessary. If a guy can't tell what I look like from the half naked photos posted, he is just wanting jack off material, so I hope he does "not bother" with me lol. I am not going to spend countless hours giving out a password to guys who are full of shit and know damn well they are never going to book with me. I do not tour, so unless a guy is paying to fly me to his city or lives in my area, he has no business on my website. It's not for window shoppers in the first place.  

Yup, thank you! If a guy can't pass screening, why would she waste time sending out passwords to guys she is never going to see?  That's all it is...wasted time.  

LMAO!!! I remember giving YOU the password early on ha ha ha. Shhhhhhh.  

I would think the best way to meet guys is through referrals right?   I get PMs all the time from guys saying check out this women "I saw her last week and she is amazing"    Does that make sense?

"I looked at them a couple of times?" Really? Then you tried to look at them again, but never booked? Well duh! When I give a guy access, it expires in 24 hours. Again, some prove the point about why we do this. If all you're going to do is surf her site and stalk her photos, she probably got pissed off and does not want to meet you. Not saying that is what you did, or how she felt, but in general. We can check our stats to see who is looking at our sites. I had a guy look at my photos 23 times, and never book. No thanks.

I always give my clients a bonus (extra time or money off) when they refer one of their associates. I much prefer a discreet network to mass advertising. I know the guy's information from jump, and it takes a lot of pressure off regarding provider references, which IMO are not always reliable. There are very few women I would trust with my body and my life, and many have zero standards when it comes to who they see.

Wow... she obviously is limiting herself to only men who see ALOT of women.
Me... If I was a man I wouldn't jump thru a massive amount of hoops to see a photo.  
I also would prefer not to see men who advertise all/any of the women they see.  
I don't find any comfort in knowing they saw 20 girls last month.  
Would just want to double bag them.. or not see them at all.  

You answered your question..........move on................if I am not sure of someone they have to provide their work switchboard number so I can ask to be put through to them by name.

In the secret hidden site ? A photo , alternate # ? A blog ? I'm sure whomever it is has photos out there along with rates and reviews . So really what more do you need ? But she sure got you interested ! Book and see how it goes , after you'll get a password and come back and tell me I'm correct !  

escalade1964, I'm not as well-heeled as most of the guys on this forum. I don't see the really expensive providers ($600 to $1500 an hour), but the ones I see are $400/hr, which is the high end for the city I frequent.

I'm self-employed, London. How about my Visa card number, social security number and mother's maiden name?

She didn't get me "interested". She got me motivated to start a thread about no-access websites.

One good reason is photos posted there really can't be stolen , it keeps guys interested and she may give them a weekly treat new photos or whatever ? I know some that have them . Some guys like having what others don't . Its really that simple.

Simple : packages , and OTC when and if you find the right lady ! And in time you will.  One of the hottest west coast providers , makes me breakfast at her house and we do weekends and exercise together among other things . Its great , and big p ! My story was true , Ive dated a lot of dancers ! Kinda lucky with that in more ways than 1 !!!!

solid references, not 300. That's the norm with many providers...2-4.

or move on.

London Rayne, three wouldn't be a problem if it was simply a matter of her contacting three providers. In this case, it's three providers who all use the same screening company. That narrows the field a lot, at least for me.

Im a Personal Assistant, Screener , Scheduler for other ladies and i was doing that well before I became a provider.. I have a laundry list of verification checkpoints that I will put your information through..  
Because my SAFETY and SECURITY as well as the ladies I work with are my number 1 priority..  

someone else’s idiosyncrasies when you don’t have to. There are few things you have to commit yourself to and one of which what you are willing to do and you are not willing to do

You are in a position where you can do that and that's just fine.  

I would not use the word "upset" but I can't speak for the woman in question. Annoyed would be the word I would use. Imagine if providers charged a fee just to see any photos..would you pay it?  doubt it, so there is your answer. Guys who do nothing but look at photos over and over and never book, are not who some women want to see. I mean, I don't much care either way, but I have legit reasons for doing what I did with my site.
