bitch economy or is Texas the horniest state ever?

[robotman]

trying to kill time, so i decided to use p411 to see where our city and state rank in hobbing nation wide. i got some numbers from the p, from what i think are the states to have a more providers. at first i figured new york, being such a large city, must have a shit laod of providers advertised in the p, but new york state,i said the whole state has only 288 ladies advertised in p. next i thought, california has a lot of people, well the whole state of california advertises 653 ladies in the p. next on the list i thought nevada, where hobbing is almost legal statewide, there is only 224 adds for all the cities. next florida, a bunch of tourists and a state with a lot of hotties, only 380 adds in the p. so where our state ranks? ta ta ta tan. adds in the p for our state 1223 our city has 269 add with a lot of hotties visiting, but this is what intrigues me, dallas has 493 add , almos twice our city. of course this does not mean the real number of providers nationwide but just a glimpse. this could be of three reasons , one... women lossing their jobs at an alarming rate in our state or having a job that is not well paid to pay the bills and turning into turning tricks. two... jonhs a lot of disposable money . three... we are just the state doing the more bangging.

Those numbers give us a picture of P411's market but without information concerning the total numbers of providers by state there can be no correlation drawn between members of P411 and state rankings in relation to the number of providers in that state.

P411 is not near as popular anywhere else as it is in this market. So using P to determine numbers is, in itself, fallacy. You'd have to include the other big players, such as Date Check, to get a better picture.

Well, you could look at it this way, Texas is the second largest state in population, second to California. That being said, Texas with its1223 ads and California with its 653 ads for providers and no telling how many pornstars there are in Cali, you could be looking from anywhere to 1500+ banging away every day over there.

A more important statistic for us in h-town is that Dallas has twice as many as we do and I also noticed that on the ECCIE showcases there are two pages for Houston providers and 6 (six!) pages for Dallas.

Just not fair! We're the 4th largest town in the union and Dallas is also smack dab in the middle of the bible belt.

The only explanation I can come up with is that they are more centrally located within the country so there is a lot more traffic flowing through (in and out of) the city and it's airports.

Can you imagine how it would be here if there were 2 to 3 times more providers than we have now????? Hobby heaven!

I tend to think our state is a little special thanks to Amber. Texas really caught on to ASPD and now ECCIE. Maybe Texans are just more use to putting the information out there and verifying to save fellow hobbiers time and grief. Other boards provide similar intel but without the interaction between the genders.

If you go by backpage and eros ads, Dallas and Houston have a lot less than the bigger cities.

Why does Dallas have more ads than Houston? I would guess Houston generally has a lower rate standard and the strip clubs are more strict. Lots of hobbiers work in the clubs or migrate from them. A lot of ladies left our city when the ordinances on SOB started popping up. Score one point for big brother.

I agree with December, you can't make a conclusion based on one web site. Some sites are more popular with a particular city.
For instance, on EROS/Female escorts:

Houston 106
Dallas 99
Los Angeles 263
Vegas 321
Miami 215

On another note, while Houston has the Houston Press with about 5 or 6 pages of escorts and adult entertainment, I have see publications in Vegas almost as thick as the entire Houston Press, with nothing but escorts and adult entertainment.

I would never use EROS. I don't see how you can verify someone is real or not on there and the money they want upfront is mind blowing. I would not mind paying it if I knew it worked but since there are not many providers on there I can say it probably don't work.

Eros is pretty popular all around. For Houston, you are likely to catch more guys visiting town when advertising there.

Ladies will typically quote higher on Eros to offset the advertising cost. If I lived in Seattle, I would probably use EROS and have no clue about ECCIE or difference in quote.

Advertising in ECCIE is the best. We have the best ladies and gentlemen.

I agree that is alot of money. If you look at it like Bp it's 5.00 a day say you post 30 days you still spend more than eros. On the other hand you can control how many times you post on bp, rather than give the big $ upfront and not know if you will ever have any calls. I heard you have to be on there three months or so..way too much for me. I think also p411 is very expensive and confusing i have paid for a featured ad and still not a call. Maybe I am doing something wrong. Who knows! just my 2cents.

Some guys don't rely on backpage because of all the rift rafts that can advertise on there at 5 bucks a pop. Backpage has a reputation for being too much like a street corner. Craigslist for a few bucks more. There are a lot of trashy girls there besides the good ones. The bad ones scare me away. At least with ECCIE there is screening by mods and other hobbiers to help separate the bad ones.

I'd use Eros for visiting other cities that don't have any good boards. I have met up with some great ladies on backpage. Mainly with reviews as my reference to their legitimacy. I am too scared to meet anyone from backpage who has not been reviewed. You got plenty of good reviews so you are in the clear. Without reviews too much risk. Just sayin...

I use bp not as often as I used to now that I have an ad on there and I get calls from p411... I had a friend that uses eros and did not the response she hoped for. She put $400 up front on that site.

[Guest022712-3]

When I lived up north, EROS was THE site for me. About 80% of my calls came from there. Its not as popular in Texas due in large part to the popularity of this site and P411. But, depending on geography, in some places its the best bang for your buck.
