It’s no secret that I hate rare-escort sites with a white hot burning passion I usually reserved for flies, ex-husbands and idiot drivers. I’ve spent a lot of time giving my opinion as to why they are inferior.
At some time you’ve lost a potential client because of R-E. Somebody, somewhere has found you interesting, clicked your website link, got an eye-full of “F*CK A LOCAL GIRL” and promptly clicked the little “x” in the corner because those banners don’t fit with the description “classy and sophisticated“. If you spent a nice little chunk of ching on your photos, your photographer is wondering why his work of art has been reduced to those little tiny, grainy thumbnails and is plastered over with that god-awful, tacky “watermark.”
Additionally, r-e doesn’t (and CAN’T) offer the peace of mind working with a real, caring individual does. I’ve been in the web-design business for nearly ten years and I intend to be doing this long after some design “companies” have moved on to their next big money making venture. Designing for SPs isn’t just a “quick” job, for me. I make a point of learning something new in regard to my business every day, and I’ve make an extra effort to learn and educate myself on ways that I can help my SP clients do their job in the safest way possible. It is my goal to present the women who choose this line of work in the most-flattering, least dangerous light possible.
It’s never been my aim to alienate or insult anyone who’s chosen to advertise with r-e, but I’m aware that I probably have done both and for that I apologize. Don’t get me wrong, I am all for free … I REALLY am. I HONESTLY don’t have a problem with free. But NOT if it a) doesn’t help and b) potentially HARMS someone. What is the POINT of having a free website if it alienates your potential clients and puts you and your business in a bad light?
You get what you pay for and “free” isn’t always “free”. In the (paraphrased) words of a hobbyist: “If an established SP who charges a substantial hourly amount is using a FREE website, it makes you wonder.”
I am running a two-tier special, SPs without a site and SPs with r-e sites.
BENEFITS FOR BOTH: One year FREE PRIVATE domain registration and hosting. (That means that you NEVER have to share your personal information with me. You get a beautiful site, I get paid and while I NEVER need to know your true name, you are always welcome to know mine.) Free basic text changes – forever. Your choice of whether or not you want to be found by the search engines. Free basic optimization and uploading of your photos, which are then uploaded in an attractive, very viewable manner. A professional website, done by an experienced professional designer with nearly a decade of experience, at a damn near FREE price.
1) NEW DESIGNS: Five pages (Home/Bio (with disclaimer), an up to 10-photo Image Gallery, Services/Rates Page, Links Page and Contact Page), your choice of colors, no Flash, one registration form, one animated banner, personalized email. No two sites alike. Once you’ve agreed to the design, layout, color scheme etc, the site is locked in for the VERY low price of $300. Additional pages, updates, services, etc. are always available at my standard prices.
2) R-E SITE OWNERS: As many pages as you currently have on r-e. Seriously. Whether you have five pages or ten pages … same low, rock-bottom price. All copy/text information taken directly from your current r-e site. You get a beautiful, viewable gallery (whether your photos are self taken w/a damn cell-phone or are expensive, professional shots, I can make ‘em look pretty without compromising reality). Your choice of colors. No Flash, one registration form, one animated banner, personalized email. No two sites alike. No tacky tasteless banners. Once you’ve agreed to the design, layout, color scheme etc, the site is locked in for the VERY low, rock-bottom, idiotic price of $250. Additional pages, updates, services, etc. are always available at my standard prices.
The special will run for twenty-four hours and I’m accepting only five new clients.
Ladies, you can’t lose with this. Quality, personal, professional work. A beautiful, tasteful website that’s ALL YOU. All for a ridiculously LOW price. Find out why some of your colleagues refer to me as “awesome”, “incredible” and “a mind reader.”
