Your point is moot because you don't know what you're talking about.

Once again you show you have not a clue, there are plenty of local papers that still do have massage ads in them,

The truth is more and more people are using the internet, including punters who are accessing AW via smart phones. Why pay over the top prices for advertising in your local paper that does not get read.

Many local papers are going out of business or moving on-line. I used to advertise in many local London / Surrey papers that no longer exist.

Our local evening paper used to have 30+ escort / massage ads, all paying well over the top, 3X more than any other advertising column. After a revelation by a late night tv show featuring a couple of local girls bragging about what they actually offered from their adverts, all adverts were pulled.

I got my ad back in, under massage with a verified ITEC certificate and for about a month was the only advert in the paper, I did ok but had to tame the wording and mention I was ITEC quaified so also advertised elsewhere as all the punters were looking elsewhere, sales of the evening paper slumped that much in a month and they were losing £2,000+ a week in advertising they started to cold call the girls who advertised in the weekly paper & Sunday sport with offers to get them back.

The above was in the mid 90's, so very pre-internet and I knew the advertising girls personally as I went to the office, each week, to pay my adverts in cash.

There is no reason for AW not to advertise on-line as other cam sites do, apart from they choose not to. They could also advertise the escort girls without a problem

For escort income there are

1,066 showing as available today X 5 credits, many will have their phone number advertised for another 1 credit, this will increase later in the day

16,285 slots showing on the local escort listing X 1.5 credits, this will not increase as they have to be booked the day before

So there is an easy income of £30,000+ per day, without featured listings & escort of the day etc, I am sure the AW revenue from webcam girls is far greater than that

And @Nova70 it is all thanks to you guys!

Time for another wine....

PS The above is +

7862 x 1.5 credits for male escorts
1094 X 1.5 credits for couple escorts
1172 x 1.5 credits for Tv/Ts escorts

Lets call that another £15K a day....

This is just one example of what I'm talking about, I assure you Sarah in my area local newspapers do not carry massage ads anymore, in America the pressure on those who advertise adult services is even more intense, in July both Visa and Mastercard blocked their customers from using their credit cards on Backpage.com because of the concerns about trafficking in the sex industry, Craigslist have faced legal action over similar concerns, it's only a matter of time before we see that kind of thing happening here.

Webcamming is far less controversial the only real complaints would be about taste and decency and since we live in a World where you can see videos on Youtube of people being beheaded someone taking their clothes off on camera is not really something to get upset about, but the point I'm making is AW also advertise escort services so even if they did want to advertise they would have fewer options than the cam only sites, so what are you left with ?, well mainly other adult sites that are probably smaller than AW and where most of the members are already aware of AW anyway.

As a footnote I've also just read a thread on a forum called Stripper Web which is very similar to the quiet again thread on here, one contributor says that some of the sites who take a bigger cut justify it by saying it's to cover the advertising they do.

You make sweeping statements and find an article from 2008, have you have checked the recent titles that they publish?

There may be a few groups that still do not, and due to the cost and lack of punters picking up newspapers less escorts are choosing local papers and going on-line.

As I am in Spain I am unable to check but last time I looked and I think it was quite recently the Bucks Free Press & Slough Observer, both Newsquest titles took massage / escort ads.

I could be wrong....

So working out that AW rake in £45,000+ a day from escort ads alone, deserved a "well done".

The calculations really did not take more than 5 minutes to work out, if you have half a brain. But I can see why you would consider it an achievement.

Time to sit by the pool....

Sarah x x x

PS Now showing 2164 profiles as available today @5 credits - so another £5.000+ in revenue
