KarmaKiss 10585 Report post Posted April 16, 2018 Not sure if anyone else has more information but I will add what I know. I seen that backpagecanada had added me on Twitter and it says coming soon. Anyone else have any information? Thanks I found this URL http://www.backpagecanada.ca Update: I was just speaking with BackPageCanada and they are definitely in the process of building a website which will include a section for SP's to advertise and they are going to inform me of a launch date once they know more. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cat 262460 Report post Posted April 17, 2018 I think we should boycott this. First, if it's a .ca domain, it's owned by a Canadian citizen who is simply trying to capitalize on the Backpage online traffic. Backpage, while excellent at SEO was a predatory pricing ad platform that continually raised rates simply because they could. It gutted our quality Canadian ad platforms and we as an industry need to recognize our power to influence the sites that consistently give support to the industry. I also think that as an industry, we need to self regulate platforms that develop when it comes to pricing. Any site that charges unreasonable rate increases that are not cost driven need to be boycotted. $300/month for an ad on a single site is ridiculous and I know providers that were spending over $1000 a month on backpage in Ottawa which is one of the lower costing cities in NA. I would appreciate a site that had some transparency concerning costs/profit ratio. When I stopped paying for advertising consistently in 2011, my gross income dropped insignificantly but I carved almost $2500 off my monthly overhead creating a significantly higher net profit at years end. This needs to apply to review board advertising as well. Any site that promotes detailed reviews that can negatively target providers should be avoided. It's simply putting money in the pockets of those that support bullies and predators. Stick with platforms in Canada that have a track record and help build traffic to those sites. Clients went to backpage because providers advertised there. If we carefully choose where to leave our advertising dollars, we effectively control pricing. Let's do something worthy with the demise of the Backpage empire and keep our Canadian sites at the top of the SEO. smiles, cat 15 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

browndude 1022 Report post Posted April 18, 2018 I've seen SPs use different forums and also using the escortcanada for ads. There's something also I've found new which is bedpage. The only one I know that was verified was the forums, however its not the same. Not sure if this assisted in any way... :S Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TorontoMelanieJolliet 4458 Report post Posted June 5, 2018 (edited) I haven't read through all the responses yet, I will when I finish this though. Like I said in another post I don't trust anyone who wants to use the backpage name in another advertising website. It puts a target square on their back. They have followed me on Twitter. I followed them back. The tweets that come through are of women and what seem to be ads..which is strange since they are not up yet. The commentary is also strange. It feels very pimpish. The promoting of favs and commenting on physical attributes. Backpage never did that. Backpage was strictly the vehicle not the pusher. According to the new laws any site that knowingly allows advertising for sexual services can be taken down and prosecuted. They obviously knowingly are prepared to be a advertiser of SW. They have completely opened themselves up to prosecution and they are not even up yet! If they are hosting anywhere within the reach of US laws then they can be seized and taken down and maybe have to give any info they have on advertisers to law officials. Right now it seems the number of sign-ups are important and they have goals. Which is weird. I can't explain why I find that weird but I do. I have not signed up and am thinking about unfollowing etc. But sometimes its better to have an eye on things instead of things happening behind your back...so you can protect yourself. I will make my decision soon as to if i totally block them from any contact or viewing their posts on twitter Additional Comments: A very user friendly site...free escort ads .... clean uncluttered.... i am posting....better alternative to the old tierd worn out BACKPAGE.... TRY it u will like it....just needs to get to Google's first page....katarina Could this be why they need sign-ups? For SEO purposes? One post, new member hmm Also what advertiser has ever used the term 'uncluttered' as a descriptive for a site? Additional Comments: I have been reading their twitter feed and it is suspect. tracking down ads and creeping agencies/spas and commenting that there are new girls but they are not sure because agency is not following them. "But they will". Telling readers that a girl is available, let the photos do the talking, "I'm sure she would love to see you. So what are you waiting for get over there" AND: "This lady should have not time to be alone" And they would love to tell you who the new ladies are at a spa or whatever but since they don't follow them then b p canada cannot say. Okay I have made a decision lol. Thats a BIG Nope!! Edited June 5, 2018 by TorontoMelanieJolliet to add last sentence 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We are not stupid. Very bad advertising method to promote suspicious websites! You're probably not an SP, Katarina, and we can guess this just by the way you write. We ladies are not fools nor fooled... 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
