The WebAwards is the standards-defining competition that sets benchmarks for 86 industries, including legal websites, based on the seven criteria of a successful web site. The deadline for legal websites to enter to be judged is May 31, 2023.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c&#8221;In the legal industry, a website can be the first impression potential clients have of your firm. The legal industry is very competitive when it comes to Web development and companies can benefit from the independent evaluation of their online efforts,\u201d said William Rice, President of the Web Marketing Association. \u201cNot surprisingly, legal websites are not known for taking risks \u2013 it\u2019s the way their industry is. They score well in terms of ease of use, design and content. The Webaward Competition provides a unique opportunity for law firms to showcase their website and gain recognition for their efforts in providing a user-friendly, informative and visually appealing online presence.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Web sites are judged on seven criteria including design, innovation, content, technology, interactivity, copy writing and ease of use. Each WebAward entry in the legal category is judged against other legal entries and then against an overall standard of excellence.<\/p>\n<p>All legal entrants benefit from receiving valuable feedback in terms of their specific scores compared against the average scores for their industry. They also may receive specific comments from the WebAward\u2019s professional judging panel on their Web site development efforts.<\/p>\n<p>Winners of a WebAward in the legal category will also receive:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Handsome statue or certificate of achievement<\/li>\n<li>A limited-edition Commemorative NFT<\/li>\n<li>Increased visibility for their company<\/li>\n<li>Marketing opportunity to promote the company website to the media<\/li>\n<li>Links to your site from the highly ranked WebAward site to help SEO<\/li>\n<li>A highlight for your resume.<\/li>\n<li>Admiration of peers, friends and co-workers<\/li>\n<li>Unlimited bragging rights<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Each year the Web Marketing Association names the Best Legal Website based on the scores submitted by the competition judges.<\/p>\n<p>Past winners of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webaward.org\/winners_detail.asp?yr=all&amp;award_level=best&amp;category=Legal&amp;utm_source=WMABlog&amp;utm_medium=Release&amp;utm_term=legal&amp;utm_campaign=WebAward\">Best Legal Web site<\/a> include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>2021 \u2013 Scorpion for THE MCCLELLAN LAW FIRM<\/li>\n<li>2020 \u2013 Zola Media for Surprenant &amp; Beneski<\/li>\n<li>2019 &#8211; Zola Creative Media, LLC for Disability Law Group<\/li>\n<li>2018 \u2013 Duo Consulting for Much Shelist, P.C.<\/li>\n<li>2017 \u2013 Goodwin for Goodwin Website<\/li>\n<li>2016 \u2013 Mitchell Silberberg &amp; Knupp LLP for www.msk.com<\/li>\n<li>2015 \u2013 Firmseek, Inc. for Weinberg Wheeler Website Design and Development Project<\/li>\n<li>2014 \u2013 Postali LLC for Staver Law Group<\/li>\n<li>2013 \u2013 Shine Lawyers for Shine Lawyers Website<\/li>\n<li>2012 &#8211;<strong> Scorpion Design, Inc for <\/strong>Crary Buchanan Website<\/li>\n<li>2011 \u2013 Clark\/Nikdel\/Powell for Peterson &amp; Myers Website<\/li>\n<li>2010 \u2013 WilmerHale for WilmerHale Careers<\/li>\n<li>2009 \u2013 Thomson-FindLaw for Law Offices of Lisa L.
