RocketMan:
Consider a different perspective here.
Whether we want to acknowledge it or not, sites are affected by the social class they attract. (Yes, there are those who fall outside of the mean but let's not go there.) I'm talking about the aggregate of advertisers they attract; the women with just a phone number, no websites, or even free websites. A number of them are strippers, ex-strippers, or what have you. The point is, they are NOT escorts! If they were, then how come so many of you have been TOFTT off of those sites?
Are there legitimate, professional escorts on these sites? Yes but, when you step back and take a critical look at the classified section, you will see a pattern.
Cityvibe and Eros have two different target audiences. On the surface it may appear that there is no difference. However, as an agency owner who must evaluate the effectiveness of my adverting dollar, there is.
Cityvibe, for all intents and purposes, is barely a half-step above Backpage. (Sorry BP. Nothing personal)
Eros, on the other hand, seems to attract a similar advertiser however, there are some fundamental differences. First off, they are willing to spend more money and invest more time in the concept of "process". Eros has a large percentage of women who call themselves escorts BUT, they do not meet industry standards.
The appeal of Eros is the women on the site don't have to invest in a website or reputation to attract guys. They piggyback Eros' perceived reputation. All they have to do is put up a pretty photo with contact information and the guys come flocking.
As an agency, we've received a "slightly higher" quality of individual from Eros than we have from CityVibe. However, we DO understand the psych-profile differences in what each site attracts and we tailor our ads accordingly.
"How", you ask? I've been in this business for over 18 years now and in that time I've tracked more than a few trends.
If you're looking for a legitimate escort or agency who is on par with your social class, understands the concept of integrity, and has the reputation to back it up; then, searching on Eros or Cityvibe is setting yourself up for a negative outcome.
I'm not here to plug TER but the fact remains: no matter which community you use, if you can't verify the reputation of your choice, you're getting what you deserve.
