    The other thing that I noticed that others haven't mentioned is the testimonials. Whenever I see testimonials/client comments where there no names to give the comments some credibility, I think "Oh, yeah? Is that right??" (in a very sarcastic tone!!). Basically, what I'm saying is, give the comments some credit by validating them with a name / venue / function, etc. For example "Harlequin Discos provided the perfect entertainment for the perfect end to out perfect day" - Mr & Mrs Smith, Wedding, Anytown Church Hall. You get the idea.

    Cheers Dazzy,

    The feedback thing is interesting. I had dates of the functions on it previously, but understand where you are coming from. I have made a point of mentioning that all my feedback is available on request, and that I have advocates available for potential customers to speak with directly.

    Its all useful feedback though...thanks!

    Cruel to be kind, but it looks like a child put it together! You're better off putting a holding page up saying "New website coming soon, for a free quote contact ryu @ harlequinroadshow. co. uk or call XXXXX XXXXXX"

    I must admit the website is not great but i agree its not the worse i have seen..
    Many of the photos are to dark and on some pages the text is in yellow and it does not stand out..

    Get a pro involved, sorry but I don't think that site does you justice.

    Steve - apologies, should be compliant now

    Hopefully this one will be around for a short time only!
