Web Marketing Association Names Best Toy and Hobby Industry Web Sites Following the 2006 WebAward Competition

Best Web sites announced in 10th Annual WebAward Competition covering 96 industries including toy and hobby.

West Simsbury, CT (PRWEB) October 6, 2006 -- www.webaward.org -- The Web Marketing Association is pleased to announce the Best of the Toy and Hobby Industry Web Site Winners for the 10th annual international WebAward Competition, the Internet’s premier website award competition.

“Recent WebAwards competitions have shown that toy and hobby websites boast well in the use of technology but have continued to score below average in their interactivity,” said William Rice, President of the Web Marketing Association. “WebAward entrants gain unique and quantitative feedback from the judges that will continue to help them improve their websites.”

The toy and hobby industry represents a significant category in the WebAward competition. Each entry is judged on the same seven criteria:

 
  • Design
  • Innovation
  • Content
  • Technology
  • Interactivity
  • Copy writing
  • Ease of use

The WebAward Competition’s goal is to provide a forum to recognize the people and organizations responsible for developing the most effective toy and hobby websites on the Net today.

This year’s best toy and hobby website, along with past WebAward winners, is:
Best Toy and Hobby Website
2006 MJ Trim - www.mjtrim.com
2005 A Toy Store of Toy Stores
2004 Chevron Cars
2003 Kodak LS420 Sitelet
2002 LEGO BIONICLE (Story Site)

A complete list of past and present WebAward winners can be found at:

The WebAward competition awards web sites in 96 industries as well as determining overall web site awards including Best of Show.

The 2006 Best of Show WebAward was presented to New York-based Big Spaceship (www.bigspaceship.com), for its outstanding work on the "TBS: Department of Humor Analysis" web site at www.tbshumorstudy.com.
