What do you think about Backpage.com?

I noticed the ad for Backpage.com occasionally flashes on TER. What do you think about it?

I perused the BP ads for my area and saw some familiar faces but I also saw a lot of bogus ads where ladies actually used glamor pictures from various sites I frequent.

Is it a CL?

Just curious!

most of the ads in NY are also posted on CL.

Backpage is published by the same people who publish "The Scene" which is the so called underground newspaper in my area. Same ads same girls. Some are legit but most are bait and switch and quick change and scam artists cutting through the area. I put most of their ads in the Too Good To Be True category. I do know that some legit providers utilize backpage but more as a secondary advertising arena than their primary.

It has the same format as CL, only better.

First, there are no free ads, you need to pay and - that alone - is a plus over CL because eliminates those pesky CL ads, posted 100 times a day.

Second, there are two basic options...5 bucks for one time ad, or 59 bucks for a week - with premium exposure, rotating from the top first page to the highlighted area on the side.

Third, it was simple and a painless procedure to post and it went up right away and I can edit as many times I want during the day or week...so my ad is always updated to my availability,

Fourth, it works! I posted my ad after I saw their banner flashing here couple days ago and I got few mails and phones calls, which turned into 3 appointments with nice NYC gentlemen, so my initial investment did pay for itself.

Providers do not have a problem about spending money in advertising when it works and brings clients.

Unfortunately, I cannot say the same thing about Citivibe...they have my profile and information all wrong, I tried to contact them many times about it and is still the same...I never got ONE single inquiry coming from their site, just because they don't take the time to update the girls ads.

Always do your research, doesnt matter where you are...

One good thing is, Backpage hasnt been in the papers yet LOL

it's based in Phoenix, the home of the self-proclaimed "America's toughest sheriff," Joe Arpaio.  He just the type to start making trouble.
