Web Design Awards

Good web design should be rewarded.  If you think your site is an example of good web design, then apply for a web design award.  This is open to everyone, and all sites. Take note of the judging criteria on the right, and then fill in the form below to apply for your web design award...

Judging Criteria

1. Aesthetic Appeal (40%)
   The overall look of your website including colour combinations, proportional spacing, crispness of graphics and visual impact.
    
2. Speed (20%)
   How long your website takes to load. This could be affected by how well you optimised your graphics, animation and sound and the web host that you chose.
    
3. Navigation & User Friendliness (20%)
   How easy it is to find the buttons and get around the site, whether the layout is logical and if there is continuity between pages.
    
4. Cross-Browser Effectiveness (10%)
   Your site should look good on Internet Explorer and decent on Firefox, because according to the W3C IE is the most used browser, with Firefox coming in second.
    
5. Code (5%)
   The amount of errors in your code according to the W3C, and accessibility issues, outlined by the British Disability Discrimination Act.
    
6. Extras (5%)
   Nice touches like favicons and interactivity.
