• Where did my votes go?

  The DJ List has been tracking all voting since January 1st of the new year. All votes since January 1st of the new year have been applied to your current score.

  DJ Votes are no longer the only factor that determine the rank of a DJ on The DJ List.

  See What is a DJ "Score".

• What is a DJ "Score"?

  Votes are tallied using our new DJ Ranking Algorithm. The 10 point scale is still applied to the algorithm, but a complex formula is then applied to create a final DJ Score.

  As Google (www.google.com) implements a relevancy ranking for websites, our system determines a relevancy ranking for a DJ's popularity.

• My name is on The DJ List. How did it get there?

  If your DJ Name is on The DJ List, this means that a member, or members, of our site have voted for you as one of their top 10 favorite DJs.

• How do I vote for my favorite DJ(s)?
  1. Become a member.
  2. Sign-in and click the "Vote Now!" link in the middle of the screen.
  3. Enter your top 10 favorite DJs (1st favorite to 10th Favorite) and click "Submit".
  4. Review your votes. Then click "Approve".
  5. Done!

  Also, be sure you've reviewed our official rules before voting.That's all there is to it.

  Don't forget to come back and vote every month.

• What program do I need to listen to audio files in the Vinyl Listings?

  You need the Real Player to listen to these files. You can download the free Real Player here.

• I want to contact one of the DJs on The DJ List?

  We will not disclose the personal contact details (email, phone, etc.) for the DJs listed on our website. We recommend finding your DJ on The DJ List and visiting their website for contact details. Also, if they have an agent listed under the bookings tab, you might try contacting their agent.

• I found a misspelled DJ Name. What do I do to fix it?

  Look for the "Correct Errors and Omissions" link on the misspelled listing's page. Follow that link and select the "Report Misspelling" link and complete the form to submit the misspelling. Our administrators will review the entry and remove the misspelled name.

• My score is lower than it was, what happened?

  Daily, Weekly, and Monthly... our administrators monitor voting activity so that all voting conforms to our official rules. If your score is lower, this means that voting activity was removed due to one or more violations of our official rules by a member who voted for you.

  All DJs and voters are subject to the same rules, and so, all DJs and voters are treated equally.

• I just voted, but the DJ's score is still the same. Why didn't the score change?

  A change in a DJ's votes does not always reflect a change in the DJ's score.
