I can't wait to meet you and WTF as well. He's a really sweet guy it seems. We're going to have a blast! The responses I'm getting from NYC gents are unbelievable but I'm leaving that evening open for us. I think I might just stay an extra day .

Nice advice.

I just took a quick glimpse of your site and the one suggestion that I would make is get rid of that Wikipedia reference to Aphrodite on your "about me" page.

I can barely read it with the orange notes included and it's not really "about you". It's about a goddess. You can include that someplace else.

And use your own wording if you wish to explain who Aphrodite is. If you're going to actually do that, realize that almost everyone is already going to know who she basically is, so make YOUR description of her clever and in some fashion linked to you.

And with your rates, you KNOW that men are going to look for brainy writing. So just go with that. I'm always tweaking mine up and frankly, it's rather rough right now and I've been procrastinating. So I need to get going and work on my wording!!!

Good luck,

It's actually an interesting tale, isn't it?

That said, converting it to my own words is an easy task, and I hadn't thought about what you said about men wanting 'brainy'. I'm actually pretty brainy, so I'll do it!

Thanks again, watch out for the 'brainy' version, he he - probably appearing towards the end of next month on my new, fully fledged site.

I agree Elizabeth.

The rate structure is confusing - I told her this.
Amanda,

Better to just have 1hr, 2hr, 3hr, - and a clock free rate than 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7hr rates then overnight, weekend, weeks.. it just makes it more confusing for the guy. I don't put an overnight rate on my site because I can't do an overnight with everyone. It's one of those case-by-case things. A clock free date should be the most attractive package out of the 3.

For example :
300
550
600

1500 clock free rate

Or

500
950
1000

This way 3 hours is the hard to turn down package and the clock free is still attractive for those interested in booking more time. If you get a request for a 4 hour - you can quote that via email.

2000 clock free rate

You can say the date starts at 9am and ends at 9pm or whenever you get sleepy.
On my site , it has the definition of a clock free date for the guys to read before booking.
You can say 4-5 hours public outing - yall can go shopping, dinner, the beach - whatever in those
4-5 hours and the rest of the time is private time. Originally Posted by Naomi4u

I suppose I could be a cheapskate and suggest:
200
275
350

Running for cover now.......... Originally Posted by SR Only

Nina - thank you very much for your intelligent input. I hope my new site will reflect it well!

I particularly like what you say about your photos reflecting your style as a person. I hear of some ladies doctoring their photos for anonymity reasons so much that it's really like another person turning up - for instance they'll have no boobs and turn up with them and say they're 'new'. Or vice versa.

I just adjusted my fees as suggested and added a couple of photos. Not expecting a deluge of enquiries from this site but as Goethe said, if you have something mind just begin it -

Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power and magic in it.”.

Mad busy with some other projects right now but hope to get to writing a proper site really soon.

I concur :-). As to the APhrodite /Venus quote: The romans and the greeks had the "same" godesses, that explains the different names for the same entities. Before patriarchy was mainstream, some male godesses even were female entities :-)

I would write my own story about your relation to Aphrodite and why you think she is fascinating rather than posting a link only as an explanation. Maybe that helps, and now i am really looking forward to see yolur site :-) when its ready.

when it comes to anonymity i don`t see the face blurr thingies doing anything, bnecause when you "know" someone you "know" them even with blurred out face, does not matter. Eventually identities get discovered over time anyway at least by close friends, relatives or people you have relationships with. That is just my experience. I have only two identities in the www and nowhere shows my real name, and thank god in europe you can`t buy information of people on the net like you can in the USA. That is outrageous. There are people outed and stalked due to reasons like that, its really awful. Political activists like e.g. Veronica Monet all operate like that, problem is if you work in that business and people find similar photos with your real name and identity, that is a problem and it does happen a lot too... :-)

If anonymity is that big of an issue then i`d much rather buy stock photos that resemble myself than posting any photos of myself on any page. :-). Whatever real photos you post - blurred or whatnot - will always be risky... :-)

By the way: I just had someone taken some photo of mine on some page for advertising, where i did not register at all. The good thing is if you book a real good photographer they have attorneys taking care of that, and you don`t even need to use your name for pursuing action, or even better, move a finger for doing anything else than forwarding the webadress of the copyright infringer to your photographer. (lol). The photo was taken off in - lets say - 3 days of work.

High class fashionphotographers deal with these things all the time, and i rather have to pay more and have such things included to be taken care of, then i pay someone for a cheaper photoshoot and no help at all, because they can`t afford to talk to their own attorney then, or have you pay for some attorney because they are too lazy to pursue action..... :-)))...

I hate it when they think they can use escorts and abuse their work for things like that, because escorts are scared of revealing their identity and go after the theft of intellectual property .. Not with me.. :-). So , back to escort pages: Long story short, it pays to pay big fat money for big fat photos for many more reasons than just the page and the clients :-))).
