The Web Marketing Association is looking for the Best Events Websites in the world as part of their 27th annual international WebAward Competition for Web site development at www.webaward.org. The WebAwards is the standards-defining competition that sets benchmarks for 86 industries, including Events websites, based on the seven criteria of a successful web site. The deadline for Event websites to enter to be judged is May 31, 2023.
“In the events industry, a website can be a powerful tool for promoting your event, attracting attendees, and providing a memorable experience” said William Rice, President of the Web Marketing Association. “The WebAward Competition provides a exceptional chance for digital agencies and organizations that create event websites to showcase their creativity, innovation and effectiveness in delivering exceptional value and impact to their audience.”
Web sites are judged on seven criteria including design, innovation, content, technology, interactivity, copy writing and ease of use. Each WebAward entry is judged against other entries in its industry category and then against an overall standard of excellence.
All entrants benefit from receiving valuable feedback in terms of their specific 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 Events category will also receive:
- Handsome statue or certificate of achievement
- A limited-edition Commemorative NFT
- 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
