"All Categories" and displayed content

posted 6/2/2011

Yesterday we updated "All Categories" to display non-adult content only. To view specific adult content, just navigate to the appropriate category. This change was made to help encourage traffic and advertisers to non-adult content.

A few other changes we've made:

  • Removed the adult content warning page when initially entering the site
  • 20 ads are now displayed per page by default. To display 25 ads per page, click the "Settings" button and select 25. Cookies must be enabled.

New Categories

posted 5/25/2011

Today we released another major upgrade to the site: new, non-adult categories. You may notice these ads being displayed on the front page (ie. "All Categories") and new sections in the Categories list.

All the old categories are still available and will continue to be updated hourly.

We also added a new blue theme to the site. The theme will switch back to the old pink and black colors when browsing adult content.

As usual, please submit commments via the "Feedback" tab at the top of the page.

New features and upgrades

posted 5/18/2011

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

Please submit commments/suggestions/votes via the "Feedback" tab at the top of the page. Your input helps us to determine which ideas and features to implement next.
