Your ranking determines your placement in search results and can dramatically affect the number of quote requests you receive via this site.

This ranking is not shown publicly however it is used to determine the order in which DJs are shown when site visitors conduct searches in conjunction with the distance that each member is based from the venue being searched. The higher your rank, the nearer you will be to the top of the page and the greater the likelihood of receiving a quote request.

The chart to the left shows your relative ranking where green represents our top members.

The single most significant improvement you can make to your ranking is to achieve a DJmark award which are given free to qualifying members of this site. The higher the award, the higher your ranking. If you are not in a position to achieve an award at this time, you should carefully review each of the sections of this site to ensure that we are properly representing you based on your service offerings.

Throughout these configuration pages, aspects which can positively or negatively affect your ranking are accompanied by this symbol.

Providing a recent valid CRB or Disclosure Scotland certificate does not affect ranking, but if you have one we can put CRB Approved against your listing.

We do not need to see an actual certificate - instead you can provide a couple of key details including the certificate number and signatory. None of these details will be published or forwarded to clients.

This does not guarantee that a client will accept the certificate under their own interpretation of the portability rules..

Tell us which recognised professional trade memberships you hold and we will show them on your listing.

No recognised professional trade memberships at this time

Update This Section

In this section you can fine tune the settings associated with your directory listings to ensure that you are being seen by the right customers.

All clients requesting quotes are asked to select a budget range (Budget / Average Priced / Premium DJ) based on this advice. They may also elect to receive a range of quotes. If you continually receive quote requests out of your normal price range then this is the best way to narrow them down.

Receive quotes for Lowest Cost, Least Experienced DJs

Receive quotes for Average Price, Typical Experience DJs

Only DJmark Holders are offered quote requests for Premium DJs

Update Pricing Bands

This feature allows you to automatically send a PDF document to enquirers as soon as a new quote request arrives. This blog post explores some of the reasons why you might wish to do this. To use this feature, you must first upload document(s) you wish to use. Once approved they will appear here - you may then assign (enable or disable) them as required.

You will still be sent the lead details in the usual way. Clients who request a RANGE of quotes will be sent the AVERAGE PRICE PDF (if one exists).

Update These Settings

You are currently listed with needadisco.com as a FULL MEMBER. Your Coverage Area entitlement is currently 31 postal areas of which 3 are being used.

Your account is operating normally and your subscription expires on 01/03/2012. We will send you renewal reminders during the month prior to expiry via the Log.

You may, if you wish, purchase additional subscription time now and this will be added to the end of your current subscription. This allows you to take advantage of the current rate.

All payments are handled online by PayPal. You can pay with a credit or debit card, bank balance or PayPal credit. You do not need to have a PayPal account to make payments - simply choose the credit/debit card option when you go through to the PayPal website.

Once you have a basic subscription in place, you can add additional business identities for just £20 / €30 per annum. These additional identities take all of the same characteristics of your "master" account and are typically used:

- when you operate under two (or more) different names - for example a specialist Wedding DJ identity and a typical party DJ identity

- when multi-ops run a number of DJs over a large area and want each to have their own identity on the site to catch more searches

Each additional identity can be completely customised in the same way as your primary listing, so you may target different budget ranges, geographies, age groups, venue types and so on.

First purchase an additional identity, below. We will then duplicate your existing record and send you details on how to amend the new identity.

Your basic subscription allows you 31 postal areas in your Geography area. You may increase this in batches of 12 postal areas (or Irish Counties) at £20 / €30 per batch of 12 per annum. Your allowance will be increased accordingly and you may then add new areas in the usual way. There are 135 areas in total across the UK plus 26 Irish Counties.

If your basic subscription is outside the first month of operation, then the additional coverage area payments will act as "balancing" payments the first time they are added. For example, if your current basic subscription allows for 12 areas and has 9 months remaining, then you add 12 additional areas, we will amend your account to show 10 months remaining at 24 areas. In subsequent years the renewals will be concurrent.

You do not currently hold any banner adverts on our Postcode Search Results pages. To learn more about this feature and how it can help your web exposure, click here

Change Viewing Mode

The coverage area which you specify determines which leads we send to you.
We will only send you leads for parties taking place in venues within the green coloured areas. You will NOT receive quote requests for events taking place in the white coloured areas.

On needadisco.com, an area is the same as a Postcode Area, for example RG = Reading and nearby towns. You can specify your coverage area one level lower than this - the Postal Outcode. So it is possible to cover RG1 and RG2 but not RG3 or RG4 by being specific when selecting the areas.

Your current entitlement is 31 Areas or parts thereof. If you wish to increase this, check out the upgrade options available on the Money Matters tab (above).

The areas coloured green on the map represent the whole or partial areas that you have selected.

We only display leads with party dates in the future. As soon as a party date passes, the lead will be removed from the list. If you need details for older leads please contact us via email (see below).

Please be aware that there can sometimes be a short delay between the notification email and the lead showing up on this list, especially if you are a new member. Use the link in the email to access the details.

Receive email confirmations each time a lead on which you have placed a bid is closed by the client, including any feedback comments. This will only work for bids which are marked as Responded at the time of closure.

Send me an email each time a lead on which I have bid is closed

Update This Setting

When new leads become available, they will be shown here.

To enhance your listing, get better positions in search results and more click-throughs / enquiries, you might want to consider the following suggestions.

- Tell us about your company Google Plus page and we will embed it in your listings. If you do not have a Google Plus account, why not set one up? They are free and are a great way to reach new audiences. They help with search engine presence, too. Do it now

Do you have any video content hosted on YouTube? If so, tell us about it and we will add it to your listing. It will appear on the relevant pages and is a great eye-catcher. Do it now

- We do not hold details of three validated customer testimonials on file for you. If you have them, please upload details. Click Here to send one or more testimonials.

- We do not hold details of health & safety method statements or risk assessments on file for you. If you have them, please upload details. Click Here to send documents now.

- According to your service offering settings, you do NOT provide a Video DJ option. If this is incorrect, visit your member dashboard and click Preferences to make changes. Do this now

- Consider purchasing one of our Postcode Banners to increase visibility of your company across our websites. These are restricted to 1 per postal area and appear at the top of our search results pages, so yours is the first advert returned irrespective of your natural ranking. We will also display your banner alongside venue reviews that you post.

- Review more venues. Each time you review a venue we will list you as a suggested disco wherever this venue appears on our directories.
