Loquax was the UK's first competition portal.
Developed and still managed by its founders Jason Dale & Kirsty Darbyshire, we believe Loquax is the UK's leading resource for both compers and promoters. It's name is synonymous with online competitions! We remain independent and focussed on providing a quality service. Starting life as a simple Demon homepage, we took an interest in entering (and occasionally winning) competitions and turned it into a community site to help others enjoy the hobby of comping.
 | Jason Dale Jason is the Managing Director of Loquax and is responsible for the day to day running of the business as well as breaking things so that Kirsty can mend them. Away from Loquax, Jason writes the OneLittleDuck blog about online and affiliate marketing, enjoys photography and follows the fortunes of Southampton FC. |
 | Kirsty Darbyshire Kirsty is the Technical Director of Loquax and does a lot of the behind the scenes stuff at Loquax. She spends a lot of the time fixing things Jason has broken. Occasionally, when Loquax isn't crashing around her ears, Kirsty spends her time knitting, sewing, taking photos and reading too many books. |
The site officially launched in February 1998. The name "Loquax" (Lo-quacks), our registered trademark, comes from the Latin Loquatious. Loquax was chosen as as a domain name it could be attributed seamlessly to any subject online plus it also because it's quite memorable. Our duck logo was introduced in 2004 to add character to the site. The logo was revamped in 2010 to give it more dimension.
The site has grown steadily and organically to include an active community, a competition blog, competition tracker service, daily updates, exclusive user competitions, as well as bingo, prize games and gaming sections.
