DL Media Received IMA Best in Class Award
Nixa, Missouri (PRWEB) September 19, 2016 -- DL Media earned the Interactive Media Awards’ (IMA) Best in Class Award for their inkinktat.com responsive, mobile-ready website design, created for Ink Ink Tattoos & Piercings studios in Springfield and Branson, Mo. The website went through a comprehensive judging process, achieving very high marks in each of the judging criteria.
IMA judges critique website entries in a points-based scoring system, with a maximum score of 500 points. The five criteria include design, content, feature functionality, usability and standards compliance, with a maximum score of 100 in each. DL Media received a score of 489 in the arts and culture category of the 2016 award year.
DL Media designed inkinktat.com with the goal of showing the world ink isn't just a man's game. They endeavored to create a fabulous showcase for each artist's work while also introducing the individual artists on Ink Ink's team. The site features an interactive tattoo portfolio sortable by artist or tattoo type, social media integration, a monthly customer feature section, live chat capability and an online shop for selling Ink Ink gear.
“We crave new challenges. Our team had great fun developing an artists' showcase and team calling card for the talented gals at Ink Ink. I believe their clients will have just as much fun exploring the site as we had designing it," says Dianne Davis, owner of DL Media. "It's icing on the cake when you receive an award as recognition for your hard work."
“We love our new site. It's super user friendly and a hub for all of our social media platforms,” says Kelsey Rogers, owner of Ink Ink Tattoos & Piercings. "Not only does the site authentically represent the spirit of our shop, customers and crew, but it gives our clients an opportunity to choose a tattoo artist and style to suit them before they even arrive. It adds another level of comfort and warmth to their entire tattooing experience."
