The Web Marketing Association invites the world’s foremost Restaurant websites to enter its 29th annual WebAward Competition, available at www.webaward.org, to benchmark web development excellence across 86 industries. The deadline for Restaurant site entries is May 30, 2025.

“In the bustling restaurant industry, a website emerges as a crucial element for drawing in patrons, displaying your culinary offerings, and crafting an unforgettable dining journey,” remarked William Rice, President of the Web Marketing Association. “With the plethora of dining options available, consumers frequently begin their decision-making process on a restaurant’s website. Participating in the annual WebAward program offers the distinct advantage of having this critical component evaluated. Achieving ‘award-winner’ status can significantly bolster marketing efforts as well.” He continued, “The WebAward Competition represents a distinctive platform for restaurant websites to demonstrate their creative prowess, innovative approaches, and proficiency in captivating and pleasing their clientele.”

Websites undergo evaluation based on seven pivotal criteria: design, innovation, content, technology, interactivity, copy writing and ease of use.  Each entry in the Restaurant class is compared against fellow Restaurant entries and a universal excellence standard.
