"The benefits of winning are simple. Only the best sites are voted to receive the Golden Web Award. The criterion for winning remains a challenge to even the best Webmaster, artists and designers. That being said, the primary benefit of the Golden Web Award is the recognition of your commitment to the pursuit of website excellence. Further, it represents that your work is considered an outstanding website, incorporating high standards of design, originality and content. Most importantly, the Golden Web Award lets others know you're viewed as a respected professional by your peers, one who is deserving of recognition."
Award Ceremonies:
The next Golden Web Awards Ceremony, was slated to be held in Las Vegas, Nevada, April 2003. However, due to the recent tragedies, the event will be temporarily delayed until safety and public opinion are favorable for traveling. The future event, of which all award winners be notified, will include Special Awards, Features And other Member Presentations.
