Midrand, South Africa, September 28, 2006 --(PR.com)-- Francois Muscat, a certified Internet Consultant with WSI (We Simplify the Internet) has been honored at the first annual WSI Web Awards at WSI’s Excellence and Innovation Conference in Las Vegas, Nevada. Francois was responsible for developing the winning website in the category of Best Product Showcase for the 2006 Web Awards, www.food4africa.org.
The Best Product Showcase award was given to www.food4africa.org, built by WSI Consultant Francois Muscat and the WSI e-Marketplace Production Center GWS for Gordon Minottt of Food4Africa. The site showcases Food4Africa’s efforts to provide nutritious meals for children in Africa. For less than $3 USD donation per month a child can be fed two nutritious meals a day for a month. This site, whose purpose is to help visitors better understand seriousness of the malnutrition problem in Africa and give them an opportunity to help, won the award based on its clear and effective demonstration of their service focus.
Francois states, “It’s a pleasure working with Gordon on the Food4Africa project. We meet monthly to discuss progress with regards to driving targeted traffic to the website, and have steadily increased website visitors and donations for this good cause.”
Serving businesses in South Africa, Francois is helping local businesses develop an effective online presence by providing leading edge, robust, scalable and affordable Internet solutions.

A WSI solution is designed to draw qualified traffic to a website leading to more customer conversions online. For the Food4Africa website, converting more visitors means feeding more needy children nutritious meals every day.

At present Food4Africa have identified over 520,000 desperate and vulnerable children in South Africa that are in dyer need of food.
