Seeking is like fishing, what you catch depends on the bait you use.
For me the key thing is having a clear well-written profile, and subsequent conversation, that offers something more than transactional sex. You need to get the women imagining that you’re a guy she could have a good time with, someone she’d like to have a date with.
If your profile doesn’t offer much and your chat is basically “how much for a couple of hours” then first of all you’re self selecting the more pro/transactional SBs as the GND types are going to ignore you. You are also asking her to determine how much you have to pay to have sex with her. Thats a completely different head space for her and IMO probably a big part of the inflated rates some of you are experiencing. I’m sure looks, age, etc become more of a factor
Bottom line, if you treat them like escorts then that’s what you’re going to find, priced accordingly. If a woman already likes you and wants a date with you before you get into those sorts of details you’re in a much better position.
Anyway, that’s what works for me. YMMV
Mr BigD makes some valid points here - essentially, successful interactions on Seeking requires some neural rewiring, especially if we've migrated there from UKP
Bottom line is that you absolutely can't approach them in the same context as we do SPs/ WGs (even the ones that
are escorts, and there's plenty of those on the site). Both male and female on the site enter into this illusory arrangement in which we are not paying for their time and service; rather, providing financial support for their studies/ start-up projects/ doomed-to-fail fashion brand, etc. 'Mutually beneficial'. But it is negotiated on another plane, i.e. like a prospective date.
It took me about seven months of reading through numerous profiles to pick up the vibe and get a sense of what they're looking for. That meant seven months wasted in approaching girls the wrong way. The minute I understood what they're after, and rewrote my profile description, things changed. Quite dramatically.
I can't claim to have enjoyed PPMs under £300 but for that amount, I've had a 19yr repeatedly stay overnight. She's just turned 22 and finished her degree. I've seen the £1K notes she gets from other guys; she has said many times that I'm the only one she'll see at my rate and that's because I'm civil to her. It helps that we vibe exceptionally well and share the same twisted humour.
My current reg is a bit older, modelled in her teens, has a respectable Insta following, blah blah blah. I didn't have to negotiate that the first date would be a casual meet n' greet with nothing exchanged other than an opportunity to see how we vibed. She wouldn't even accept my insistent offer of a car to collect and return her home. Her previous SD - who miraculously had to relocate to Dubai - used to give her £700. She pitched the PPM to me at between £300-400. I settled halfway. She stays for around 5hrs.
Like so many girls on there, she hates how guys on Seeking approach her.
That last point is crucial - and links back to bd40's analysis. We're having to penetrate a thick wall of defence that has been created by flakey men that have promised loads only to disappear on them. Or, approach them transparently wanting sex.
Your best armour is to be genuine, authentic, charming, polite, and so on. Humour helps, of course. Be interested in what they have to say.
The right girl will see you for all that and respond because you represent safety, security, consistency.
Brethren... gird your loins... go forth and multiply - just understand it's a medium-term game
