It's free and easy to create a blog on Escort-Ireland.com.

Start out with a welcome post. You should talk briefly about yourself and why you are starting your blog.

Think about what you have to offer. Can you educate and provide advice and tips for clients? Will you give your readers a peek into your secret life as an escort? Are you going to talk about your escort work, or share you thoughts on world news?

Come back to your blog every few days or as often as you can. Each blog post should talk in detail about one topic.

Invite your readers to leave comments for you.

Start out writing about topics that you think will interest clients, such as how to choose a good escort, what experiences escorts can offer, how the escort industry works etc.

After a while you will start to see that certain topics get more comments than others. These are the types of posts that you should aim to write, because they obviously interest clients.

Although your blog is a marketing tool, you shouldn't be posting adverts for yourself on it. Clients who read your blog can easily click through to your escort advert, but they aren't visiting your blog for a hard sell. Please note that locations, tour dates and contact details cannot be included in the blog.

Clients will soon get to know you via your blog. Blogs build trust between escorts and clients. Once a client has read your blog, he is much more likely to want to meet you in real life.

Using a blog to promote yourself is a very effective way to stand out from the crowd.

Your personality can win you clients! ]]> Patricia http://www.escort-ireland.com/boards/entry.php?b=618 <![CDATA[Human Trafficking & Child Prostitution]]> http://www.escort-ireland.com/boards/entry.php?b=351 Sat, 13 Jun 2009 20:23:23 GMT Are you a victim of human trafficking or sexual exploitation or any other crime?

Don't be afraid to go to the police. The police in Ireland will help you.

An Garda Síochána (Republic of Ireland) - Homepage of An Garda Síochána
Police Service of Northern Ireland - Home | Police Service of Northern Ireland

Visit the Blue Blindfold website for further information about help available to victims of trafficking in Ireland.

Home - Anti Human Trafficking Unit from the Department of Justice, Equality & Law Reform (Republic of Ireland)
BlueBlindFold - Homepage from the United Kingdom Human Trafficking Centre (Northern Ireland)

In emergency call the police on 999 or 112.

Do you suspect human trafficking, exploitation or child prostitution?

If you have encountered an escort or other sex worker who you believe may be trafficked, exploited or underage, we would strongly encourage you to do the right thing and report your suspicions to the police immediately.

If you meet an escort who is foreign, perhaps with very little English, who appears to be frightened, unhappy or not wanting to perform sexual acts, or if you notice injuries to the lady, you should suspect trafficking. You should also watch out for ladies who appear to have their activities supervised by a "pimp" type figure or who are offering un-safe sexual services or appear to be working long hours and seeing a large number of clients perhaps not by choice.

It is not a crime to pay for sex in Ireland. It is against the law to have sex with an underage person (in both the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland). Since 2008, it is also against the law to pay for sex with a trafficked person in Republic of Ireland, and a similar law will probably be in place in Northern Ireland shortly.

If you suspect trafficking, exploitation or underage - LEAVE - and report the matter to the police.

If you would like to remain anonymous you can call Crimestoppers on 1 800 250 025 (Republic of Ireland) or 0800 555 111 (Northern Ireland). You can also email blueblindfold@garda.ie (Republic of Ireland) or fill out the secure online form on the Crimestoppers website (Northern Ireland).

Clients play an important role in stopping sex trafficking and exploitation in Ireland - Please do your part! ]]> Patricia http://www.escort-ireland.com/boards/entry.php?b=351 Prostitution in the Irish Times http://www.escort-ireland.com/boards/entry.php?b=340 Fri, 05 Jun 2009 14:58:03 GMT It’s not those "Chinese Massage" adverts they should be embarrassed about, it’s their reporting on prostitution that is shameful.

Prostitution “news” in the Irish Times is bland and unintelligent at best. More often than not it’s just anti-prostitution organisation press releases re-written.

Why is it that, when it comes to the sex industry, journalistic standards at the Irish Times drop to that of the trashiest tabloid?

In April the Irish Times covered the story of the ICI (Immigrant Council of Ireland) publishing a report on sex trafficking in Ireland. My website - Escort-Ireland.com – featured very heavily in this report. I wrote to the Irish Times immediately, to see if they’d be interested in writing a less one-sided article on the topic. Needless to say all I got back was their auto responder.

The Irish Times is not interested in what people like me who have lived and breathed the Irish sex industry for over 25 years have to say.

However what any TD says is another matter.

Last week the Irish Times reported that Roscommon-South Leitrim TD Denis Naughten has read the ICI report and believes that “mobile phones are the lifeblood of this country’s brothel-keeping and prostitution industry” and “If certain mobile numbers were to be taken off this country’s mobile phone system, that would immediately close down a huge proportion of that industry.”

This isn’t an original idea. It’s actually been doing the rounds here ever since British Telecom - frustrated with prostitutes leaving “tartcards” in their phone boxes in central London - came up with the idea in the early 1990s. It didn’t work in London then and it certainly won’t work here now.

Has everyone forgotten that it is legal to work as a prostitute in Ireland? On what grounds would phone service be withdrawn from these law abiding citizens? Who would scan the Internet day and night locating prostitute phone numbers and getting them switched off? And, if it could all be done, what would be the point of it, to drive prostitutes out of their apartments and onto the streets?

However prostitutes need not live in fear. These days you can use a UK or other foreign mobile phone in Ireland nearly as cheaply and easily as you can use an Irish one. If Ireland’s prostitutes woke up tomorrow morning to find they could no longer use Irish mobile phones, by lunchtime they’d be using foreign mobile phones, or diverting a foreign number to their “secret” Irish mobile phone or using skype or... Really in this technological age the possibilities are endless.

When Mr Naughten brought this idea up in the Dáil last week Minister for Justice Dermot Ahern said it was something the gardaí could look at. In fact the gardaí have looked at it several times already. They’ve always said it is not feasible. And thank god – in this world of clueless politicians and careless journalists – someone still has some common sense! ]]> Patricia http://www.escort-ireland.com/boards/entry.php?b=340 New E-I Ad Campaign http://www.escort-ireland.com/boards/entry.php?b=339 Thu, 04 Jun 2009 19:18:13 GMT Admit is now folks, when you see this billboard it makes you think of E-I doesn't it? :p:p:p

]]> Patricia http://www.escort-ireland.com/boards/entry.php?b=339 Escort-Ireland.com Award in Journalism 2009 http://www.escort-ireland.com/boards/entry.php?b=338 Thu, 04 Jun 2009 18:22:24 GMT To mark Escort-Ireland.com's 11 years of working with women involved in prostitution in Ireland, we have set up the 'Escort-Ireland.com Award in Journalism'.

This award recognises journalists whose published writing during 2009 contributed to an increased public awareness, knowledge and understanding of our company's opinions on the sex trade in Ireland.

The contest is open to journalists who write for newspapers, magazines, news services, or online publications, either on staff or in a freelance capacity. Books are excluded from this award. (Sorry Stephen Rogers of the Examiner we won't be able to consider your new novel!)

A judging panel of Escort-Ireland.com management, one of our friends who is a journalist and someone from our PR company will review entries to select an overall winner.

The deadline for submissions is the 31st October 2009 and the award will be presented to the winner in November 2009.

Submissions should be sent by email to support@escort-ireland.com

Needless to say this will be a very prestigious award, much like the one we bestowed on Karen Coleman last year.

Last but not least, a big thank you to Ruhama for giving us the idea for this award,

Prostitutes in Brazil should be prepared to perform fantasies and seduce with affectionate nicknames, according government advice.

The Labour Ministry website issued tips for workers in the sex trade, which is legal in Brazil.

It also advised prostitutes they should be able to "demonstrate a capacity to communicate in a foreign language".

The ministry said it aimed to promote the human rights of prostitutes.

But critics said the site went too far, and its contents are due to be toned down.

A spokeswoman for the ministry said: "The information was created with the help of non-government organisations and the prostitutes themselves."
But she confirmed that the language and some of the explicit tips on the site would be re-written before the year is out.

The site, which started up in 2002, also gives prostitutes advice on how to negotiate condom use with customers, information on HIV and encourages women to denounce violence.

Opponents said the site encouraged prostitution.
Law professor Luiz Flavio Gomes told the O Globo newspaper: "What is on the site gives the impression of an apology for sexual exploitation."

There has been too much moaning about the problems of Escort-Ireland.com at times of late.

I'm not talking about people pointing out fake photos etc... Obviously if a photo is fake, it needs removing, and the clients that alert us to fake photos are doing us a service...

I'm talking about the general "This site is shite...." rants that come in by email and PM or are posted on the message boards or as reviews and are basically just random moanings about things we have already said we are working to improve.

I won't say clients who do this are wrong to... The customer is always right :D

But all this moaning is only slowing us down as we try to make the improvements. It is not easy running E-I as it is, let alone improving it as we go. Every day we do thousands of updates to this site and in order to find the time to improve it as well as update info as usual, we need to really get our heads down and work hard.

It would help if people could stop moaning for no good reason and give us a bit of space to work on the improvements.

So, if you email a complaint to Pat and you don't get an answer... Here is why... I AM TRYING TO GET ON WITH IMPROVING THE WEBSITE AND I CAN'T DO THAT WHILST I'M SPENDING ALL MY TIME RESPONDING TO COMPLAINTS.

Rant over,

Thank you,

Today I saw this rauncy advert for Scruffs Workwear, a UK based company with a website at http://www.scruffs.com:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qb47OmMtGaE

The reason I noticed this video (which is apparently aout 2 years old) today it is that one of the actresses is now a school teacher in England, and this "scandelous" past work experience of her's has just come out and the story is all over the UK papers!

Lots of unhappy parents on message boards now screaming "How can our children be safe with a woman who has stared in a porn film teaching them!?!"

I don't personally see the problem, but that issue is besides the point here anyway as this isn't a forum for discussing schooling of children.

What I want to know is who made this advert, so I can give them a call and find out what they could do for E-I! angels27 We could use a sexy little video advert :D

A Polish man got the shock of his life when he visited a brothel and spotted his wife among the establishment's employees!

Polish tabloid Super Express said the woman had been making some extra money on the side while telling her husband she worked at a store in a nearby town.

"I was dumfounded. I thought I was dreaming," the husband told the newspaper Wednesday. The couple, married for 14 years, are now divorcing, the newspaper reported. ]]> Patricia http://www.escort-ireland.com/boards/entry.php?b=3 Sex and The Law http://www.escort-ireland.com/boards/entry.php?b=1 Tue, 08 Jan 2008 15:27:51 GMT I’ve always thought the law surrounding sex work in Ireland is a bit odd in places, but some... I’ve always thought the law surrounding sex work in Ireland is a bit odd in places, but some searching of the Internet reveals that sex law can get even stranger abroad!

Here are my 5 favourites:

In Cali, Colombia, the first time a woman has sex with her husband, her mother must be in the room to witness the act.

Considering a holiday in Indonesia? The penalty for being caught masturbating in this country can be decapitation!

In Bahrain, it is against the law for a male doctor to look at woman’s genitals. If they must examine this area, they must look only at a reflection of the woman’s genitals in a mirror instead!

In Lebanon, men are legally allowed to have sex with animals, but the animals must be female. Having sexual relations with a male animal is punishable by death!

In Guam it is illegal for virgins to marry. This law has made way for an industry where young virgins often pay men (whose full time job it is to deflower virgins) to pop their cherries!

And this is before we even get to the good old U.S.A.! ]]> Patricia http://www.escort-ireland.com/boards/entry.php?b=1
