Web Marketing Association Names Best Construction Web Site
2006-10-16 15:15:00
The Web Marketing Association is pleased to announce the Best Construction Web Site Winner as part of the 10th annual international WebAward Competition, the Internet’s premier website award competition.
“Many construction sites have struggled to move beyond the “brochureware” phase and look like online versions of their printed sales materials,” said William Rice, President of the Web Marketing Association. “Feedback from WebAward judges can help websites move beyond this phase allowing them to attract more web visitors.”
Construction websites represent a highly competitive industry within the WebAward competition. Each website is judged on the same seven criteria including:
• Design
• Innovation
• Content
• Technology
• Interactivity
• Copy writing
• Ease of use
The overarching goal of the WebAward Competition is to provide a forum to recognize the people and organizations responsible for developing the most effective construction websites on the Net today.
This year’s best web sites along with past WebAward winners in the construction industry are:
2006 PAF Painting – http://www.pafpainting.com
2005 Bell-Corley.com - http://www.bell-corley.com/
2004 Four Seasons Consumer Web Site and Franchise Portal - http://fourseasonssunrooms.com/
2003 Azure in Bonita Bay - http://www.azureatbonitabay.com/

A complete list of past and present WebAward winners can be found at: http://www.webaward.org.
The WebAward competition awards web sites in 96 industries as well as determining overall web site awards including Best of Show.
The 2006 Best of Show WebAward was presented to New York-based Big Spaceship (www.bigspaceship.com), for its outstanding work on the "TBS: Department of Humor Analysis" web site at www.tbshumorstudy.com. Big Spaceship joined forces with Mother Interactive to turn their very silly questionnaire into an addictive, fully interactive web site.
