AdultWork - The Only Show In Town.

[Sadgit]

Sorry about all the questions.
I admit Im new to this so trying to gain experience without the pain.

I noticed all the reviews seem to reference one source AW.
Is AW the only show in town ? What Are The Options ?

I used to look at Backpage.Hallo London, EE (Escort England) etc just wondered if you guys only use one site AW and whats your experience with other sites than AW.


Thanks

Discussed recently on here.

Thanks
Ill give it a read.

Still curious why all the reviews come from AW

[Stealthshagger]

Well, note your batting average using the means you did. That's a start.

[Sadgit]

Whats the general feedback on Backpage ?

[Stealthshagger]

That it's shit, from what I gather.

[vorian]

AW is the worst form of contact punters have, apart from all the others.

Apologies to Sir Winston Churchill for that.

This shit is a nightmare lol lol

Ask if somebody here has seen her. If not, decide if you want to risk however much she charges to find out if she is a fake and then report back. Personally, I won't see anybody that isn't recommended by punters I trust or regular girls I see who know what I like. Occasionally, my gut instinct will tell me that a newbie might be worth a go and then I'll see what her communication is like. That often sorts out the good from the bad. Following this strictly means that I very rarely have bad punts nowadays. I can't actually remember the last one and I have punted a hell of a lot in the last couple or years particularly.

[Stealthshagger]

If you always choose pictures that are heavily photoshopped, expect poor returns. There is a reason they use such photoshop pictures.

Good tip
But it is a bit of a jungle.
I was told use agencies as pics are genuine but I found that to be a lie.
I then looked for independents but found it was still agents putting out ads as independents cause you can tell this not the girl on the phone.

Geez.....aint easy

That the question I was asking why are all the reviews and questions "have anybody seen this..." always from the same site AW
Do punters basically only go to AW

Just curious if Im wasting my time on other sites ??

No one can speak for all punters so your question cannot really be answered but as you said, you only see people asking about AW, so logically on UKP it is the dominant site and point of reference.

Yes imo you are wasting your time on other sites.

[Gigabyte]

AW is the UK equivalent of amazon for punting. Has its drawbacks but it is better than anything else at the moment. Other sites I would only use if there is a recommendation about the girl from a punter I trust on here.

[Sadgit]

Dominant site and the ONLY site (possibly)

[Stealthshagger]

Well, as you see if you have a look, there are other sites too.

[vorian]

Dominant site and the ONLY site (possibly)

Don't really know what your question is, do other sites exist,  then yes they do.  Are they any good, well that's subjective, so imo no they are not as good as AW. You just have to learn how to get the best out of AW. Which again imo means using UKP in conjunction with AW.

[hendrix]

As vorian said, the combination of AW and UKP generally works well. Feedback on AW is almost completely useless, unless I  know the punter in question, and even then, some guys do worry about getting negatives by posting a negative, so I always try and clarify with them directly via email or elsewhere if their feedback was genuine. I don't bother with other sites as I have no reason to. I also use a couple of agencies who have generally provided me with good to excellent girls over the years and that covers my needs.

In my opinion it's only "a jungle out there" if you choose to ignore resources like UKP and the advice of other punters.

Sorry maybe I should have explained it better.
I just wondered do punters see girls from any other sites and if so why dont they review the girl and reference the site.

That led to a two part question.
Part 1: Do punters only use AW

If the answer was YES then that gives reason to why all the reviews that I have read,(granted I havent read them all) are from AW

But....

If they do use other sites (and judging by the reviews it seems unlikely) why arent they represented in the reviews.

I was really trying to workout which sites are worth considering.
I trust the reviews here but would be great if the pool was wider

On the other hand no point being wider if its not accurate.....Ohhh Im so confused lol lol

I just posted a review of Gabriella from Maxes Angels, a london agency the other day, so other sources are sometimes referenced.

That sums it up for me....was trying to cut corners and learn from the experience of others and I think I learned a lot in the last couple of replies.

Thanks

AW has become the dominant force in the prossie world its a bit like google

There were search engines before it and there are other search engines.

My review was for an escort from an outcall agency I put it up as I have used that agency quite a bit.

[Sadgit]

Some of the pics on other sites look more tempting than AW but I guess theres a reason AW is the punters choice.

Had nothing but wasted time on Backpage and Viva  so was hoping if they where reviewed here id get better luck :-)

AW tends to have more information that you can analyse and cross reference. 

[Andre 3000]

As others have said AW is basically the most easiest to use, the fact that I can check pictures,areas, ages and ethnicity and the layouts etc are OK, it means it's pretty useful.

The main problems are fake profiles are ignored and crooks can come on again and again to make fake profiles. of course AW gets to keep any credits that those profiles make so gives no shits about cleaning up properly.

I'm surprised a more enterprising person or persons with a bit of capital haven't built a competitor, I can see multiple things that would make things easier for punters and WG's.

Thing is if a girl is on another site and is an independent then in all probability she will be on AW as well hence most links to AW.
If you image search an image on another site to check out if it is genuine and it is it will normally show up on AW so you can see a full profile

[Sadgit]

Thanks Dani

Many have tried and failed miserably. Its nothing to do with the functionality look or feel, but mainly to do with the fact that AW has been established over 10 years and has total control of the market in the UK. Competitors thinking of coming up against AW need to have a huge marketing budget to break the market, or wait 10 years to get established like AW did.
Its often been disussed on UKP, however no one has ever even come close yet...

 Ive often longed for an alternative, but AW remains the only real choice for us punters right now. Let's hope there's other options surfacing in the future.

[Lea]

  Well, AW must the best/most efficient option a the moment.
Personally, I'm not overtly happy with it, but can not complain too much either.
AW just got something about it , and also the fact that its meant exclusively for advertising sexual services  (e.g. as  to opposed viva street or CL) I does get boring at times,  it would be nice  and healthy to see some alternative sites , but the truth is, those are just not viable and therefore are waste of time and money at the moment.
 Its a vicious circle,in order  for a change to happen ,we, as consumers ( both service providers and the users) would have to initiate it. ( which is highly unlikely) So there.

Hi Lea Dreyas

I wasnt having a pop at AW more questioning why it seemed to be used exclusively.
Now I know.

I guess for many non seasoned punters they (like myself) go for the flashy glam sites and realise most of the time its a waste of time.

I only found UK because I thought there has to be some genuine profiles.

[Stealthshagger]

Lea, have you met sadgit?

[Stealthshagger]

Lea, meet sadgit. Sadgit, meet lea.

[broksonic]

How do you know which agencies are genuine ,and which are fake . I mean anyone with a bit of know how could create a site with pics of girls on and add a bit of detail

[Stealthshagger]

A lot of the websites are made using free templates. If there were a ratings system and the domain and labelling matrix were known, one could set up a search of those. There would not be a reason to believe they have or would have more fakes than adultwork, which seems to be majority fake nowadays. A key feature would be age verification for the WG.
