We've recently released a few upgrades and changes to the site. Please submit any comments or suggestions via the "Feedback" tab at the top of the page.
• Ads updated hourly
Previously, all displayed ad listings and pics were only as recent as the prior day. Now, ads from all major cities (i.e. New York City, Los Angeles, Dallas, etc.) are added, updated and displayed every 60 minutes. Ads from mid-sized and smaller cities are updated at varying intervals, from every 3 to 12 hours. Our goal was to make ad listings and pics on the site as real-time as possible.
• Encrypted browsing via HTTPS
SSL encryption for private, secure browsing of the site is now available via the url:
https://www.backpagepics.com
* Note: only the connections to the backpagepics.com servers are encrypted. All ad pics and some javascript resources are not hosted by our servers and are not available over HTTPS. This traffic will be unencrypted and your browser may give a warning about this. However, all search queries, location queries, etc. sent to backpagepics.com are secure and encrypted.
• Disabled some categories
The categories "Adult Jobs", "Adult Massage", and "Fetish & Fantasy" have been disabled and are no longer available for viewing. The reason behind this is pics are either no longer available for these categories, or the categories were not receiving enough views or traffic.
What's next
We're considering making the following upgrades in the near future:
- Improved search results: ordered by relevancy, ad text searched, etc.
- Display pics from non-adult categories
- User commenting and rating system
