Submit YOUR Site for Consideration
Websites that Work! A W A R D S
A Distinguished Web Site Award Program for Small Businesses
sponsored by MSW Interactive Designs LLC (MSW-ID).
MSW Interactive Designs LLC seeks to recognize and award web sites that meet the highest standards in design and usability. We believe that websites should be a sales and marketing workforce, a priceless asset to small businesses with limited personnel, time and resources.
The Web Sites that Work! Awards program recognizes outstanding small business web sites with four different award levels (Platinum, Gold, Bronze, and Blue), in two different categories.
- For Wedding Industry professionals, the WHERE BRIDES GO ™ web site award tells brides that YOURS is a site “where brides go ™” for everything wedding related. All wedding industry web sites are eligible to submit their sites for consideration. If a site is accepted for this award, it will receive either the Platinum, Gold, Bronze, or Blue rating, according to the outline criteria. Once awarded to a site, that web site may display the award proudly on their web site so all visitors to the site know the site is top quality.
   
- Small Businesses outside the wedding industry may submit their web site for the “Web Sites that Work” award. Quality small business web sites may be submitted for consideration. If accepted, the site will receive either the Platinum, Gold, Bronze, or Blue rating, according the outlined criteria. Once awarded to a site, that web site may display the award proudly on their web site so all visitors to the site know the site is top quality.
