Lets Start with a photographer...
1- You do not reply to every Tom, dick, and harry that says they can take your pictures for you. Just because someone owns a digital camera, does not mean that are a photographer or that they have your best interest at heart.
2- Google Professional Photographers in (city) your area.
3- Make sure they have a studio, and no, this doesnt mean an empty bedroom in their home. I have an office in my home. This does not mean I have an offfice in some corporate building. It's a vacant bedroom. LOL
4- Make sure their email is joeschmoe@myphotostudio.com ( or their server ) .meaning.They have a site with their Portfolio, and an email that matches it.
5- Check out other escorts or girls in the industry he has photographed. Perhaps even email these girls and get a reference on him if you can.
6- Make sure his models arent all in the same style. You don't want your pics to look like all the other girls in your area. You want to stand out.
7- when taking pics- refrain from nudity, fingers in your cookie, etc. Men look for style and grace. Ya seen one cookie ya seen them all. If ya want weirdos and free pic mongers, by all means.. Shove a beer bottle up there if you wish. However, A pro will not take these sort of pics unless he caters to porn stars.
8-Make sure his replies to your emails are free flowing and consistant. No one cares that he has shoots in LA, NYC and Toronto. A pro wants your business and will sit on top of his emails.You dont want to be just another subject to him or another one of his jobs.
9-you are paying for the photos. DO NOT LEAVE HIS STUDIO without your discs. These are YOUR photos, you paid him for them. Any professional photographer will have his computers hooked up in his studios. I have three Pro photographers. And this is how they all work.
10- if you dont like your pics the first time. DO NOT GO BACK AGAIN FOR ANOTHER SESSION. find someone else. A pro will know how to capture the real you after 15 minutes in his studio. You have already exuded to him a personality. He should know how to capture it.
Ps/ If any girls wants the name of my photographer.. Email me .
web designers...
Now here is a crash course and if you are a GOOD web designer reading this, you will not get mad. If you suck..Its rightfully ok for you to get mad.
First lets talk about what a web designers job is.
He/she designs your site.
well, big deal, my 14 yr old can design your site too!! this does not make a good designer simply because he is proficient in html. 5th graders are learning html in computer labs at school !
Your web designer charges you for many things.
Make sure your template is different and stands out from the rest. A great example is www.highheelsdesigns.com. Look at her portfolio of accounts. Every girls site is different. you'd never know the same designer made them all
If you pay your designer for updates, it is their responsibility to do so. Pick a date during the month and send out all your updates ,banner exchanges etc for them to update on that same day every month.

addendum from Chicagoareaescorts staff
FTP username and password is important but it is slight in comparison to
control of your domain name. If you allow someone else to sign and
administer it, you are at their mercy. A site has two things... a domain
name (maintained through a registrar such as Godaddy.com) and a host (ie ipowerweb.com).
A domain name is property and you and only you should own and administer it.
Doing so is quite easy and very affordable... about $10 per year.
Domain Name Signing 101
Take for instance Godaddy.com. At the site, type in a domain name you
want. If available, you effect the purchase by filing out the info and
paying for it with a credit card. Be careful to provide an email address
that you will always have (this is how your registrar will contact you
with things such as reminders to pay when due). Once you have a domain
name, administering it is as easy as logging in with your username and
password and doing what you need to do at the control panel. An example is
modifying your DNS info. This is how when someone clicks a link or types
your URL into the address bar of their browser, they get the files
comprised by your site (DNS info is your host's server). The specific DNS
info is provided by your host when you sign up. It is just two small names
that you paste into the appropriate text box when logged into your
registrar account. Making your WHOIS info private is also a very simple
matter to do yourself... you do it from the control panel at your
registrar (what you see when you are logged in). You can do a lot of
important things with your control panel and YOU should do them.
Web Hosting in Brief 101
Your hosting account is also something you should own and maintain. It is
very easy to sign up for one. There are a plethora of good hosts and for a
text/graphics site (most are), it shouldn't cost more than $10 per month.
Once you have your host, you have your FTP username and password (afterall
you created it). You can allow your webmaster access by giving it to
him/her or even setting up an FTP account for them through the control
panel. Be sure when signing up to supply an email address that you will
have for a long time to come. That is where payment reminders are sent.
In General
Webmasters come and webmasters go... depending on their abilities and
customer service, how you are as a client, price, budget, etc. Owning and
administering your domain name and hosting account keeps control in your
hands and saves you money in the process. For a registrar, I recommend
Godaddy.com (avoid the extras when signing up). Webair.com is an
outstanding host. It is $10 per month for a basic plan. Bounceweb.com is
also pretty good. There it will cost you about $5 per month (but customer
services is not as good as webair.com).
Learn to use FTP to make a site copy
It is VERY easy and the way you will want to make a copy of your site.
WSFTP is a good one. To use, what you need is your ftp host name (ie...
ftp.mydomain.com), your username and your password. It is just like using
windows explorer (you are looking at directories and files). The panel on
the left shows your hard drive and the one on the right shows your content
on the server. To transfer files back and forth, you select them and press
the appropriate arrow. It is just that easy.
Marketing aka SEO
In regard to marketing... there is a WHOLE lot more to it than what is
mentioned. That gets into SEO and it is not reasonable to expect a web
designer to place you well into the search engines during design and
implementation. SEO is a process, not an event. Depending on how
competetive is your search space, there can TONS of work to place a site.
SEO is also something not many web designers truly understand. There are
many who think they know it. Some really do but most do not. An easy way
to tell is to look for where their sites are placed. If their only "claim
to fame" is their site comes up first when searching for "kukla fran and
ollie webmasters", so what? That is not a competitive search space. A much
more telling thing to check is where do they place when searching for
something broader and widescale. I could write volumes about SEO. Bottom
line is se placement is another category of service. Your webmaster should
indeed be familiar with the onsite factors and incorporate them but actual
strong placement is a process that requires varying degrees of action as a
function of how competitive is your search space. It also takes time to do
it right and obtain lasting results
