The Web Marketing Association is looking for the Best Music 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 Music websites, based on the seven criteria of a successful web site. The deadline for Music websites to enter to be judged is May 31, 2023.
“In the music industry, a website can be a powerful tool for promoting your music, engaging with your fans, and selling merchandise” said William Rice, President of the Web Marketing Association. “The WebAward Competition provides a platform for interactive agencies and organizations that create these music websites to showcase their creativity, innovation and effectiveness in delivering exceptional value and entertainment 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 in the Music category is judged against other Music entries and then against an overall standard of excellence.
All Music 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 Music 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
- A highlight for your resume.
- Admiration of peers, friends and co-workers
- Unlimited bragging rights
Winners of the 2023 WebAward Competition Music Website will receive a commemorative NFT to recognize their success. The Web Marketing Association WebAward Competition is the first award program to provide its winners a limited-edition Ethereum-based Non-Fungible Token (NFT) to commemorate their award-winning website achievement.
