The Best Political Website 2020 Will be Named by Web Marketing Association in 24th Annual WebAward Competition

Boston, MA, March 18, 2020 --(PR.com)-- The Web Marketing Association is looking for the best political Websites in the world as part of their 24th annual international WebAward Competition for Web site development at www.WebAward.org. The WebAwards is the standards-defining competition that sets benchmarks for 96 industries, including political web sites, based on the seven criteria of a successful Web site. The deadline for political web sites to enter to be judged is May 29, 2020.

“Politicians running for office and their staff understand the importance of a using a website to reach out to voters, especially in a presidential election year,” said William Rice, President of the Web Marketing Association. “Their websites should provide a resource for their key audiences and demonstrate their position on various issues. Having that aspect of your political website reviewed is just one benefit of participating in the annual WebAward program. Being recognized as an “award winner” can’t hurt the candidate and their staff either.”

Web sites are judged on seven criteria including design, innovation, content, technology, interactivity, copy writing and ease of use. Each WebAward entry in the advertising category is judged against other advertising entries in its industry category and then against an overall standard of excellence.

Here are some of the recent Best Political WebAward winners:

2019 - OXD for UBC Rapid Transit
