WebsiteBox Nominated for Prestigious 2013 Inman News Innovator Award
Toronto (PRWEB) July 09, 2013 -- Websitebox™ has announced that it has been named one of eight finalists for two prestigious Inman News Innovator Awards: Most Innovative Real Estate App, Tool or Vendor, and the “People’s Choice” Innovator Award. The nomination comes just seven months after WebsiteBox’s launch at Inman’s Real Estate Connect in New York City.
In the “Most Innovative Real Estate, App, Tool or Vendor” category, WebsiteBox is competing with other real estate tech companies such as Cartavi, DoorSteps and Homelight, and with powerhouses such as Trulia’s Google Glass App, The National Association of Realtors, and Zillow Digs for the “People’s Choice” Award.
WebsiteBox has been turning heads since its inception. In June, the real estate technology startup, offering $99 mobile friendly “do-it-all” websites designed specifically for realtors, was named to HousingWire Magazine’s inaugural RETech:50 list of top real estate technology firms for 2013.
The Inman News Innovator Awards recognizes companies, individuals and tech tools that use new technologies creatively to enhance user experience, boost productivity, improve efficiency and cultivate transparency within the real estate industry, for both real estate professionals and consumers.
WebsiteBox is the value provider of feature-rich real estate websites for agents, teams and offices, offering each for a one-time price of $99—the lowest in the market. Every WebsiteBox website comes with ready-to-publish content, search engine optimized and customizable by specialty. Each site incorporates responsive design for mobile-friendly performance, lead capture and customer relationship management capabilities in an all-in-one control panel, a branded email address, 24/7 website hosting and full Internet Data Exchange (IDX) search integration.
Inman News Founder and Publisher Brad Inman has a reputation for supporting startups, which he calls “the heart and soul” of Real Estate Connect.
“We are honored that so many companies launch at Connect, many of whom go on to do great things, changing the real estate industry," Inman says.

“We are pleased to be recognized by Inman as an industry innovator, as the award recognizes the best of the best in real estate technology as an Innovator and Trend-Setter,” says Peyman Aleagha, CEO of WebsiteBox. “We are here to disrupt. We are here to add value.
