2006 was an eventful year, not least of which was the founding of Midlands Maidens. Join us for a reminisce of our 15 year anniversary!
It was around the end of 2005 when the wheels were set in motion, when coffee was served at the owner of ABC Escorts’ house, and the owner was bragging about all the amazing girls that she had.
It was quite obvious that this was a little lie, as all of the ‘amazing girls’ had now left, and were working independently for Northern Angels and being driven to their appointments by Steve, one of the founding owners of Midlands Maidens.
ABC Escorts’ website in 2006
So armed with his trusty pen and paper (as that was all there was back in 2006) Steve started visiting the internet café at Bobbers Mill with the intentions of learning a little web designing, and getting up a new escorts website.
The earliest version of the Midlands Maidens website that we could find
Looks awful now, doesn’t it?
Back in the day though, when the colours popped out and the galleries were live, it was a 2006 version of ‘cutting edge’ technology, and so we made the decision to move away from site-builders altogether and host our own website, together with our own email system.
The Feline website back in 2006
We’d noticed that another local competitor, ‘Felines‘, was using a firm called ‘GoDaddy‘ so we thought we’d try there.
Within hours, we’d got our account set up, and the name that we’d all agreed on was Midlands Maidens, 1) because it sounded cool, and 2) because we were based in Nottingham, and it was a hark-back to Maid Marion of Robin Hood fame.
The rest of our trials and tribulations can be found elsewhere on this blog, so we won’t go into the fall-out with GoDaddy, and with TSO Host, and the migration over to Krystal here.
Celebrating our 15 Year Anniversary:
ABC folded years ago, and checking on Google, the WHOis database, and Twitter, it looks like Felines folded up on New Years Day, so for now at least:
…and even if Felines decide to come back after a week or two, the records show that we’re now the premier and longest serving escort provider.
Watch out for a few very special offers in our notifications, celebrating our 15 year anniversary, so make sure that you’ve subscribed to those.
So for this first real post of the year (aside from the recruitment one), we’d like to wish you all a very Happy New Year, and many Happy Bookings to go with them.
