If not, it could be a useful feature to nudge them to do more to become more visible on the site and hopefully this will lead to more revenue.

Just bumping this thread because I'm curious if service providers can monitor 'traffic' on their adverts?
We def can.. we have a little counter on our profiles that do show amount of views our profile gets over a 28 day period and it gets updated in real time.

That's good to know, Miss Red. I'm always surprised by the number of ladies who don't know how to use this site, even the simple task of answering a PM.

Sadly the amount of views don't determine the amount of bookings you will get in a 28 day cycle. I can get over 300 viewings each day with no bookings so punters like to window shop alot. If there was a way wg's could capitalize on every view it would be fantastic.

It is true views don't directly translate to same amount of bookings;)
The counters of views is a good indication of ..
How well your current photoset is being received.
How your current area is working for you.
How many punters in area actually use esa in an area.
If you keep an eye an your counter averages you will easily spot a drop or a rise on a certain day and that might be a good day to capitalise on the views to ad a special or something.
Make a point of asking clients if they phoning on your esa ad. Then take that number of calls you got in a month from esa punters and devide it by number of views on your counter. That way you will know how many of your views actually translates into calls in a month.
I can't tell you how to even work out a percentage of how many clients you actually get from esa a month and then you compare that to what u pay per month to advertise and that should tell you how well your add is working for you.
Most ladies won't bother to do these kind of calculations.
But doing that and taking all your other expenses you have per booking will actually shoe you where you making mistakes in pricing, spending ect ect.
This is a business and if u treat it as one when looking at financial side of things you will feel a lot better about your earning and expenses. Where it comes from and where it goes to.
Me for example now.. am not showing as much "profit" as i would like to because I am spending way to much on accomodation.. so changing that will increase my profit margins.

If you can easily change your accommodation or from where you operate from then getting new business would be easy, but unfortunately that's not an option for me as I operate from my home.
It seems to be seasonal of some sort because I have not made profit at all for the month of Feb. It's actually been the worst month ever but the views on my profile have been the highest. Could the punters spent all their money on Valentines day lol. I could be wrong but I suspect punters visit a profile frequently and just have a moment to themselves and not bother to call because they might be cash strapped or are in persuit of the cheapest offer in the area that matches your profile.
I could run a special but a small percentage of punters actually visit the Forums. Some don't even know the purple site has Forums which are quiet informative. Others don't even know you can review a WG,and againg others don't even want to post a review because they kinda want to avoid you having a flood of bookings so to keep it 'exclusive' if that's the right word. So there are alot of factors one should consider.
I would not waste my money and place ads on other platforms because they don't receive as much traffic based on my research but then it does not entirely mean what works for one would also be a hit for the other.
Lets hope business will pick up in the new month and let's share how one can be innovative in this business. Mcwa

Thank you, Louise, that is a great idea about how to calculate the views. And for that curt reminder that I should start writing down my income and expenses. I know FULL WELL to do it but never get there. Seeing that I am always broke (gatvol of it) - the only way to prevent that is to discipline myself.
