What are Australian clients really looking for when they search for companionship?
By exploring how over 200,000 monthly users browse SimpleEscort, from their preferred age filters to service requests, we get a clearer picture of their tastes.
In a country that is almost uniquely shaped by fragmented, state-led approaches to sex work regulation, our data reveals some particularly interesting insights. Most strikingly, it challenges the assumption that physical encounters are most clients’ main priority.
Young and In-Demand: Looking at “Mature” and “Teen” Ads
Comparing provider and user statistics from SimpleEscort’s data reveals a clear mismatch between what clients search for and what escorts tend to advertise. While 46.31% of escorts declared ages 18-24 in the last 90 days, and 42.99% fall between 25-34, only 2.19% of user searches are filtering for companions under 26.
Of 1,000 sex workers advertising on SimpleEscort Australia, the keyword 'teen' appears in just 6.60% of profiles. With “mature” featuring in 17.92%, our statistics suggest a marketplace that extends well beyond stereotypical youth-focused advertising.
The Takeaway for Australia’s Teen and Cougar Advertisers
This has some potential implications for independent escorts under 25, who seem to be competing in the country’s most saturated demographic. Those over 35 appear to be operating in a less crowded niche with dedicated demand; the 55-64 year-old category, which includes “granny” escorts, is the least competitive.
Interestingly, some independent research shows that clients may pay premium rates for characteristics beyond age, particularly emotional availability and authentic connection. In Australia's decriminalised states, older women escorts may consider more prominently highlighting their experience in their profiles.
Intimacy Over Transaction: The Services Clients Actually Want
Here’s where SimpleEscort Australia data challenges mainstream assumptions about what sex work users predominantly look for: French kissing tops Australia's most-offered services at 9.10%, followed by erotic massage at 8.50% and oral at 7.96%. The girlfriend experience (GFE) appears in 7.73% of listings, while "porn star experience" lags at just 4.76%.
Why Massage Dominates the Top 3
The prominence of erotic massage potentially reveals a crucial insight about modern demand. It is especially interesting when we consider external research on international preferences for sex work seekers, which shows that clients increasingly seek emotional intimacy alongside physical pleasure. In particular, these studies find clients have come to increasingly value providers who "act like a girlfriend" rather than rushing through “transactional erotic” encounters.
Massage, the second-most-offered service by SimpleEscort advertisers, bridges this divide perfectly. It can be intimate without being explicitly sexual, and offers a therapeutic as well as arousing intimate experience.
Australia's Most-Requested Services: What Clients Book Most
Here's how preferences rank across SimpleEscort's active listings :
- French Kissing – 9.10%
- Erotic Massage – 8.50%
- Oral – 7.96%
- Girlfriend Experience (GFE) – 7.73%
- Handjob – 7.73%
- Blowjob – 7.14%
- Role Play – 6.85%
- Rimming – 5.59%
- Anal – 5.14%
- Porn Star Experience (PSE) – 4.76%
What's missing is just as revealing - services like "creampie" or "bareback" don't feature in the rankings. This possibly reflects the robust sexual health culture in Australia, especially within decriminalised states where condom use is normalised and openly promoted.
Mobile-First Clients and Nationality Preferences
Unpacking client browsing behavior reveals as much as looking at service preferences: an overwhelming 85.6% of users are accessing SimpleEscort via their mobiles, compared with just 12.4% who use desktops. This mobile dominance suggests users who most likely value the convenience of on-the-go experiences, or the freedom to browse where discretion is important.
Australian escorts dominate searches at 30.37%, but significant diversity exists in demand for international companions. The “Indian” filter is used in 8.15% of searches, “Thai” in 6.30%, and “Nepali” in 3.63%. While perhaps unsurprising considering Australia’s multicultural demographics, it still shows some supply-demand mismatch—only 14.92% of escorts declared “Australian” nationalities; this was followed by 5.43% Japanese and 3.29% Thai as the top three.
Looking at gender filters, we can see that 35.93% of searches specify "trans," far exceeding searches for "woman" at 10%. This indicates a considerable clientele actively seeking specific experiences over gender-normative encounters.
Body Types, Features, and Your Next Booking
What kind of physical characteristics can clients expect from most SimpleEscort companions? Based on body types declared in provider ads, the market offers plenty of diversity beyond mainstream beauty standards. "Curvy" was the most displayed body type, appearing in 31.70% of ads. This was followed by "slim" at 19.82% and "athletic" at 12.25%. "Very curvy" listings, often BBW or plus-size escorts, were only seen in 1.89% of listings—a smaller segment of the Australia-wide marketplace.
Feature declarations also reveal more about who is advertising: the most commonly declared feature at 26.42% was "independent," perhaps not too shocking on a platform that offers autonomy and anonymity in Australia’s fragmented legal environment. "Mature" follows at 17.92%, "big butt" at 16.04%, and "student" at 12.26%, suggesting clients appreciate both physical specificity and fantasy experiences.
Taken together, these patterns can help both clients and escorts navigate the market with clearer expectations. If you're a client, it can be interesting to see how your preferences align with broader trends, from seeking connection-focused scenarios to valuing specific characteristics. For escorts, it offers some potential strategies for marketing services, from emphasising emotional availability to highlighting your niche.
