Our business is
advertising. We are not an escort agency, and do not represent the listed escorts
in any way. What you discuss or do with the escorts is completely your private
concern. We are not responsible for your experience with the escorts listed
on our site.

We receive new listings every day. Please refer to the listing summary page to calculate the number of active ads on our system right now.
We verify all of the ads as best we can before they go on-line. However, if you are aware of any person or business that is misrepresented in an ad on this site, or if we have an incorrect telephone number on any page, please click the report problem button near the bottom of the ad and let us know. We actively remove bait and switch ads as we feel these damage the integrity of online advertising in this business. We will not knowingly place an ad for anyone who bait and switches customers (Meaning putting up a fake photo and sending a different person out on call). Even if the ad has the VERIFIED PHOTO icon under the image it does not stop a bad agency from sending out a "Replacement" when the person in the ad is not currently available. Since we do not have offices in every city across Canada we are unable to verify all ads in person so we rely on our users to let us know when something is not correct. Sites like www.cerb.ca (Canadian Escort Recommendation Board) are also available to help battle bait and switch ads and give the community a place to discuss the industry and recommend people's services to others in the industry.
Our contact information is listed on a separate page. You can also send us a message directly from the contact page. We strive to provide outstanding customer service.
Yes, Escorts-Canada
is owned and operated by Canadian residents and we are a legally registered
Canadian Company. We operate out of Ontario Canada (Just North of Toronto) in
a commercial office where we manage a multimedia and web hosting firm as well.
Company History: Escorts-Canada was Developed in 1997 in Vancouver BC Canada
and launched in 1998. In January of 2000 the site was sold by the BC company
that developed it and relocated to Ontario where it has been operating from
successfully ever since. It is Canada's largest and most successful site of
it's kind.
We accept ads from individuals and agencies that provide escort, massage, and other services. Ads are grouped by the sex of the service provider; female, male, or other (couples, transsexual, etc).
Our site is one of the first places that an on-line customer looks when looking for an escort in Canada. We advertise in local papers in selected cities across Canada and are promoting the site vigorously on the Internet search engines. We're working hard to get you noticed, and it's working. On average, a new customer starts browsing ads on this site this site every minute, 24 hours a day.
Your ad on ESCORTS-CANADA.COM can contain your picture and detailed information about your services, allowing you to market your services much more effectively than other advertising methods.
It is very cost effective to advertise here. In fact, you can advertise here for free! For about a dollar a day, you can have a full web page on our busy site. Your ad will be seen by thousands of customers in your area that are using our site to find the services they seek.
It's really effective and inexpensive to advertise here. In fact, our lowest priced (weekly text classified) ad is absolutely free!! For your own web page ad listing, our advertising rate is CDN $49.99 (GST already included) per month. There are no set-up fees, no contracts, and no extra charges for photos, web page links, or changes to your page. We will even scan your photo for you, for free.
In some cities you can try us out for free without any commitment as long as your ad qualifies for a free trial.
Alternative pricing plans and discounts are available to agencies wishing to display ad pages for their staff.
Please refer to our banner advertising information page for more information about banner advertising programs and their costs.
You can send us a cheque or money order by mail or courier.
More information about how to pay for your ad is available on a separate page.
Yes. Up to 11 photos on a provider ad and you can have a company logo on a company ad at no additional charge. The photograph should not contain X-rated pornography or be sexually explicit, but can be suggestive or contain partial nudity (No Genitals Showing please). We reserve the right to refuse to post any picture on the ESCORTS-CANADA.COM web site that does not meet our guidelines.
You can have us create additional picture pages, banners, your own www.yourname.com, and more. Please call us for more information and pricing.
There are several ways for you to send us your picture.
Yes. You can include a link to your existing web page for no additional charge.
You bet. You just have to know the URL address. You can determine the direct URL to your page if you know your member ID.
For individuals,
use either of these:
http://escorts-canada.com/cgi-bin/ad?id=YourIDNumber
http://adultad.net/cgi-bin/ad?id=YourIDNumber
For agencies, the
URL is either of:
http://escorts-canada.com/cgi-bin/adc?id=YourIDNumber
http://adultad.net/cgi-bin/adc?id=YourIDNumber
For printed ads, most people don't bother with the http:// part because most web browsers don't need it. Most people recognize a web address when they see one, especially if it has a www in front of it. Our server doesn't need the www. part either, but you can use it if you want to. There are several forms that you can use. For example, Joy's ID number is 810, so her web link would be either:
You can include as much text to describe your service as you like. We reserve the right to edit or refuse to post any ad text on the ESCORTS-CANADA.COM web site that does not meet our guidelines.
You can change the details on your ad yourself using our on-line form. After you change your ad, you can review what your page will look like, but the changes will not appear on ESCORTS-CANADA.COM until after we have had an opportunity to review it. If your telephone number has changed, we will contact you to confirm that the number is valid before your edited ad goes on-line.
Limits:
There are two types of ad pages on ESCORTS-CANADA.COM. An Individual Page is used to describe an individual, and an Agency Page is used to describe the services of a company or agency.
If you have already set up an agency page, you can create individual pages for your staff and then associate them to your agency. If someone's individual page is associated to your agency, their page link will still appear in the list of individuals providing services on the applicable City Page, and again in the staff list on your agency page. Their page will also contain a link to your agency page. This kind of "double-exposure" can help bring more people to your agency page.
We will contact you by calling your business telephone number to confirm that your ad is valid before we activate your new ad. Depending on when your ad is received, your page will be on-line within 24 hours in most cases however new ads are reviewed and if they do not qualify for a free trial they only go online once payment is received. Free trials are only available in cities with less then 3 ads currently showing and less then 100km from a city with over 3 ads showing. If you are not sure feel free to contact us first to ask.
Your expiry date is listed on the bottom of your ad page, in the center of the page after the word exp. The date is in the form 12-Jan-99. We also try to send out notices VIA email 10-7 days before your ad expires as well.
Your ID number (Also known as your account number) is listed on the bottom of your ad page, in the center of the page before the word exp.
The average number of times per day that your page is being viewed is reported (Log into the management area to view your log file).
The names on the city page are sorted by expiry date, so that the ads that are paid furthest ahead appear at the top of the list. New ads that are on their free trial will be under all paid ads. This strategy helps you by giving you a way of improving your visibility on our site, and helps us keep our administrative costs down by encouraging people to keep their accounts up to date without reminders from us.
Pre-Pay the ad for more time paid in advance. The ads that are paid furthest ahead appear at the top of the list. You can ensure that your ad is at the top of the list by making sure that your ad is paid in advance for a period longer than the other advertisers in your city.
Only if your friend has an account with us to. If not the answer is No. Once person per ad is all our system is designed to display. If your friends already have an ad with us then you can advertise that you do calls together as "Duo's" if you wish - log into your account and add your friends account number to the "DUO'S" field and this will link your ads together and give you both a FREE "Duo's Ad" if you both continue to run your main paid ads. Accounts are limited to one duo ad at this time.
People do not like to read in all capital letters, it is looked upon as yelling. You can place all capitals in your descriptions if you wish, but the headline must follow strict guidelines. In the headline box you must not use all capital letters, you can not place titles such as "Number one" or "The best" and you must keep the headline under 40 characters including spaces. If you would like your ad to stand out more please inquire about our highlighter feature.
Our system will create a city for you when you place an ad if the city is not already online with us. You can use any city name you wish as long as it is a real city. Things like GTA (Greater Toronto Area) and Southern Ontario are not allowed, instead you can place additional city listings in all the cities you wish to advertise in for only 10.00 per month extra per listing. You must use the same photo and information for each of these ads.
Possible Reasons for not qualifying could be...
Agencies get a free listing with 2 or more paid ladies profiles and in cities with less then 3 paid ladies ads agencies may also qualify for free trial ads.
Can you take two of my photos and edit them into one?
No, Only the large main VIP ads have a this ability. We can edit photo's, blur faces, cover or hide tattoo's or other identifiable marks, censor images, watermark images, and more (Within reason). Some charges may apply for detailed requests so email us and ask if you have specific requests. We will not edit your photo to make you look like someone you are not so please do not ask.
For the main VIP ads we do offer a free service to make a nice 4 photo collage for you with our signature VIP logo on the main image.
Most common answer,
You probably sent it on a weekend or long weekend and no one is available to
update it. It takes up to 24 hours excluding weekends and holidays in most cases
- sometimes slightly longer but all work is done as soon as humanly possible.
If it has been 24 hours excluding weekends and holidays then please call us
and ask.
Our office hours are where we have photo editing and account staff on hand are.
Monday to Friday 11am to 5pm EST
Saturday and Sunday we are closed as well as holidays
Yes, and we will
credit the balance of time to your account 2 times per year for you as well.
If you need to remove your ad more then 2 times per year the remaining portion
of the current month will be lost (or) a 30.00 reactivation fee will apply to
the account (Whatever works in your favor). This stops people from taking advantage
of this service.
