I am making a website where escorts (prostitutes) can sign up and set up a profile filling out the services they provide, prices, etc, and then they will automatically appear in the list of escorts and will have their own page listing their information.

I'm having trouble coming up with a word:

If you register you will be able to create your own (word I'm having trouble with)

I thought about "profile", "page" but the term is not clear.

"Classified ad" would be clear but it seems out of place in a website; it makes me think of a paper.

I'd be surprised if you could describe it in a single word if you domn't want to use 'profile'. – Barrie England Nov 19 '11 at 21:09

This question is unlikely to help any future visitors; it is only relevant to a small geographic area, a specific moment in time, or an extraordinarily narrow situation that is not generally applicable to the worldwide audience of the internet.

Classified ad refers to an advertisement in a section of a newspaper which is divided into classifications such as "help wanted", "car for sale", and so on. So you clearly do not want classified. But if you think of the information as an advertisement for the person's services, why not describe it as a personal ad? That's an existing, well understood term that would probably translate very well to your purpose.
