\"\"<\/a>The Web Marketing Association is looking for the Best Restaurant Websites in the world as part of their 24th annual international WebAward Competition for Web site development at the WebAward Web site<\/a>. The WebAwards is the standards-defining competition that sets benchmarks for 96 industries, including restaurant web sites, based on the seven criteria of a successful Web site. The deadline for restaurant web sites to enter to be judged is May 29, 2020.<\/p>\n

\u201cRestaurant industry marketing has been truly transformed by the Internet,\u201d said William Rice, President of the Web Marketing Association. \u201cPeople have many choices when it comes to how to spend their dining dollars and the first thing they turn to is a restaurant\u2019s website. Having that aspect of your restaurant website reviewed is just one benefit of participating in the annual WebAward program. Being named an \u2018award-winner\u2019 can help with marketing as well\u201d.<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n
