Websites
are judged on seven criteria including design, innovation, content, technology,
interactivity, copy writing and ease of use. Each WebAward entry in the technology
category is judged against other technology websites and then against an
overall standard of excellence.
All
technology entrants benefit from receiving valuable feedback in terms of their
specific criteria scores compared against the average scores for their
industry. They also may receive specific comments from the WebAward’s
professional judging panel on their Web site development efforts.
Winners
of a WebAward in the technology categories will also receive:
·
Handsome
statue or certificate of achievement
·
Increased
visibility for their company
·
Marketing
opportunity to promote the company website to the media
·
Links
to your site from the highly ranked WebAward site to help SEO
·
A
highlight for your resume
·
Admiration
of peers, friends and co-workers
Each
year, the Web Marketing Association names the Best of Industry for the various technology
categories based on the score they receive from the WebAward judges.
