Omg so I found out that my listings are put on stupid A$$ crawler sites called escort busts and bitches of backpage that actually link to other personal sites. So if you wonder why your phone may be slow that might be it, I've sent more than one request to take me off of it but it's still there. I wonder if there are other steps to remove the sites all together or just my ads. Some guys don't realize that these are ploy sites to get you to go to adultfriendfinder and other sites. Unfortunately guys are already afraid when they call so when they see escort busts they are like hell no..I pride myself on my great rep and I'll be damned if they destroy it by lying to get views. Please help me take this site and others like it down.

i've had my stuff taken down from that site numerous times. nothing you can really do about it. most hobby men already know that site and most like it are nothing but scams.

I find BP a necessary evil as I get most of my business from there and not from forums.

^^me too..
Most of my best clients are from bp.
Seems like since they are the type of Men that would never be affiliated with a website, so when they find a good bp provider, they treat her well and repeat often.

I noticed that too when I googled my phone number! Did you email them to remove yours? I usually get most all my clients from bp. Clients know more about bp than other sites. It's easier for them to browse without logging and or creating a profile. Backpage has changed so much in the past couple months though I don't see it being around for much longer!! I try not to depend on it!

I get most of my business form Eros, P411 and certain forums. BP Guys, by my experience, seem to be less versed on safety and the ins and outs of the hobby. Most of the Eros and P411 guys I see (85% of my business) know sites like these are nonsense. I don't think it's hurting my business at all. Where you advertise and the audience your hitting will effect your business way more than one of these sites. They pop up all the time, get rid of one and another comes up and steals info. Let your reputation speak for itself and set high standards for who you will see; sites like this won't be able to hurt your business.

Those auto-created sites out there crawling ad sites to then steal ads to sell more ads are so crammed with junk that I don't think most guys really rely on them. The one escort busts website is a little alarming at first but a few minutes in this hobby will show that even the contact info of even the most highly reviewed girls is on those sites. They will eventually be slapped by Google for spam because it's redundant automated content and disappear from the search results.

I wouldn't worry about it too much. It also kind of creates a camouflage of sorts so the real communities of hobbyists and providers can still connect without as much scrutiny.

Still hesitant about posting on BP. Been thinking about trying it as an alternate source.

You can make it nearly impossible for them to publish your phone number. Never type out your phone number in your ads. Put your phone number in your photo. It's actually quite technically difficult to extract text automatically from random photographs. That's why it makes good security tests to see if a human is filling out a form. I don't think the cute symbols or word versions of numbers actually slows anyone down with sophisticated software because those patterns can be programmed. Pixel data is far more complex for computers, but humans are hardwired for it. So avoid the scrapers and still get clients.

Nice idea
