SEO For Escort Agencies

Hi guys so I run an escort agency here in the UK the website is VIP Escorts Kent | The No.1 Escort Agency in Kent 24/7! , the design and seo was all done by myself but I know for sure there is a way to improve its ranking. I am averaging 300-400 views per day but they are not converting in to phone calls?

I am guessing that I will need to have thousands of views to generate some phone calls, most of our calls come from the advertising we do on a classifieds website.

I'm finding it hard to think of ways to get good backlinks and beat the competition we have...I have even resorted to some backlinks on Fiverr which led me to a negative effect with Google. After researching some of the competitors and what backlinks they use I have gained them too but its just not enough to get in front of our competitors.

Would really appreciate some advice and would even be willing to pay the right person to help us get the views we need?

Thanks
Ash

  • I can't offer any advice for your particular niche, but can suggest that you do something about your site's speed. It loads too slowly. That can affect your ranking.

    • I know it does load so slow I think its the server we have the domain with, one.com :/

  • It could also be your graphics, your coding, and/or the fact that you're using WordPress. Every WordPress site that I've encountered was slow as hell.

    • Yes I handed over the coding to someone else who fudged it up to be honest but the one.com hosting is not that good I am moving to better hosting soon but I am just really looking for ways to improve the SEO with backlinks and other methods
  • Your site has issues, and not just from an SEO perspective...

    It is slow as hell which I have no doubt is causing you to lose business. You have that blog post widget in the left sidebar which does not even lead to any real content. That just makes your business look careless in an industry where your clients are probably super concerned about discretion. The links for 'find an escort' basically all lead to the same gallery.

    Just those things alone are likely chasing away the people who are finding your site.

    • Thanks for your observation, I am moving the site to a new server soon as my other sites do not take this long to load. The original design was meant to take the clients to different galleries depending on their requirements in the search fields but it became known that it could be easier to point them to the gallery and they can shortlist the type of escort they want there.

      Thanks for picking up on the blog posts! I had not noticed that after installing some sampledata from another theme and this is what was left to delete. It should be updated with the original content now.
  • Can someone explain to me how I can improve the SEO with backlinks and what are follow and non-follow links and what ones do you want the most? Is it better to have lots of backlinks or only 10-100 good quality ones?

    • Just for fun, I wondered where in the world you would get quality links from. I don't know anything about the escort service, but I can't imagine what would constitute a quality link to the site. I mean really -- where are they going to come from??

      Dating forums? I can see that. And you can buy ads there.

      Where else? Online dating blogs... uh... lol... hmm. Oh - perhaps erotica blogs... I hear some people write erotica fiction, so maybe you can partner up with some of them for some-thing.

      Sorry. That's all I got.

      Whoops (dammit). Places that sell lingerie and other sexua-OKay I think you get the point now. Just go buy ads wherever you see half-naked people!

    • Sorry. Your answers:

      1. Yes, quality backlinks improve SEO.

      2. There's only no-follow, and that tells search engines to ignore certain links.

      3. You don't want no-follow. Since do-follow links don't exist, you can't want them. You can only not want no-follow links. (It's math)

      4. It is better to have 10-100 good quality ones. All the other ones reduce your search engine ranking.
  • There's actually a lot of issues on the seo side for your site and one major issue is going to places like fiver and things to get links. Plus, remember you're in the adult game, so why not focus on paid advertising where allowed. It all comes down to quality and put http://www.warriorforum.com/main-int...ys-better.html in internet marketing section on list building but totally applies to this as well.

    • I really think you need to assert some effort in cleaning up the errors on the site before you even consider doing any SEO. If I click "Brunettes" I don't want to see blondes... all of the simple stuff like this is effecting your Conversion.

      Conversion.. that is who you really need to get this site into the hands of.. A conversion rate expert. Seriously.. You are getting 3 to 400 views a day.. and not a single call? you don't need to wait for thousands of visitors... if everything on your page would be in working order at this point, the phone should be ringing... but your not there.

      I normally call sites like this a Train wreck.. but due to subject matter I will call it a "hot mess". stay away from the SEO until the other issues are corrected. at this point throwing more traffic will only harm you in the long run. It wont get better, it will only get worse.

    So why do you even care about SEO?

    From a business POV you already know classified ads are converting yet you're fighting some unknown conversion fail with search traffic.

    Put your money/energy towards proven traffic, in your case expand on classified ads.

    • This is a really good question. Search isn't necessarily the best choice.

      Second question: what exactly are you looking to accomplish? When I try to search for "escorts kent" you're on the first page, and you're the first name in the local map widget.
  • Apart from the loading speed which is the worst I have ever seen, there are other issues. Your search function seems to have some flaws in what it shows when you do a search.

    If you want to find a particular type of girl, it sends you to a gallery of all different girls. If you want to book one, it sends you to another page of more info about the girl (loading slow again). You need a faster, more accurate search. Remember that there are presumably other agencies also covering your areas so you need to be better than them.

  • I have several questions for you:

    a) How do you know the visitors on your site are not converting in phone calls?

    b) How are you tracking them?

    In the adult industry is very difficult to acquire backlinks in a "natural way" of you build your own PBN or you buy them.

    Contrary to some people in the forum believe I think is important for you to appear in the first page because many people make the research of these services over the internet before making the call, privacy and anonimity are paramount in the industry

    • I have to say I am very happy with all the replies!

      Unfortunately I have bought a new domain and will be loading on our new design which is very fast and has no bugs the only bad thing I can see is that all the SEO work done on the previous site I will have to duplicate on the new site. One.com hosting is shockingly slow but has good customer service. The new host is top rated and the new theme loads super fast with them, plus it will be vipescortskent.COM instead of .co.uk which on my research also ranks you higher!

      As with anyone who has their own business they want to be better than the competitor and unfortunately the current site lets us down big time especially with function that is why the new site is thorough.

      We ask our customers when they call on how they found us and most of them say through the classified ads but that is costing us £100 a week, we want to create a page for each area we cover and rank page 1 for that page as we cover a large part of south east England but we need to know what to do to rank page one for those pages.

      Its quite annoying when you are having those views and they aren't converting to calls and from your feedback it seems the slow loading / website structure is the main issue and I hope that fixing that will give us leads.

      As for our bad backlinks I have asked the guy on Fiverr to remove all them I think we had something like 240k backlinks which from looking at the SEO tools 99% of them was low quality. I was just wondering if you guys have had any experience in the adult field when it comes to generating decent backlinks? From some research I have done some of the other escort agencies have even posted on website that have nothing to do with the subject and got a top quality backlink because of it!

      Would love to hear your thoughts...

  • Hi, first of all, SEO on this escorts sites is very difficult for a lot of reasons, but you can try to discover how you target search in google, I mean that look for the exact phrases they use and try to ranking, if you are listed for "escorts in Kent" that´s ok but try to expand much more like "blonde escorts kent" or "24h escorts kent" etc.. you´ll find out.
    You can create a blog and post great content of the girls, the partys, whatever...
    I did it once and it work for many months, until google change the fck.... algorithm.

    • So when the new site is launched do you recommend that we just have a link on the page to the new site and not redirect them instantly from the .co.uk to the .com? Does this affect ranking etc?

      Thanks for the advice feresmarot but its quite hard to find any data in Googles Keyword Research tool as far as escorts are concerned, is there any tools or ways to find how much traffic would come from extended search results like "Blonde Escort in Kent" ?

      Also I like the idea of posting on adult forums etc but a lot of these other agencies have top ranking backlinks that are on site totally irrelevant of the escort industry lol , does google punish you for having non-relevant links but still high quality?

      In the minds of a marketer/seo guy how would you market your escort agency if you had one?

  • Hey Ash - are you ranking for "escort service Kent" and such keywords or you're just looking at views coming from all sources?

    The problem might be you're just getting random views and not targeted traffic.

    I've seen you've built 56,945 backlinks to the site but couldn't find you ranking for one single keyword on my end.

    I've worked extensively in the adult niche if the problem is indeed ranking in Google I can help you get there in a couple weeks.
