You mentioned "having a bunch of people on the left of the homepage isn't the best UI choice" - these should be pictures scrolling horizontally in a jquery slideshow on the top of the page. Is this not what you see? Perhaps a bug in the site.
Just FYI - Entfusion is short for 'Entertainment fusion' (i.e. a variety of entertainment vendors)
My thoughts exactly. Call it sheer laziness, but the fact that the linked site is not opened in a new tab prevents me from navigating too deep into the linked site.
I'm aware of the ways to force open a new tab, I was just curious as to why this wasn't the default. IMO, it provides for a friendlier user experience.
So for those who have multiple references at their disposal, this generally isn't a problem. My goal is to address all those people who need to use craigslist to find vendors, or do a google search as you mentioned. The feedback I've received from all these people is that it really isn't feasible to find good vendors in this manner. Craigslist doesn't offer reviews - it's really a shot in the dark, and performing google searches is a long and tedious process. The desire was to have one site from which to find vendors, see/leave reviews, and interact with the vendors through the site, in realtime.
All that being said, advertising/marketing is certainly not easy and is an area which may require a bit more cash flow in order to get widespread attention.
