Excellence deserves recognition and healthcare websites, including healthcare, healthcare provider,
medical, medical equipment, biotechnology and pharmaceutical websites will be judged and the best
recognized in the 2017 WebAward Competition for Website Development.
Boston, MA, March 13, 2017 --(PR.com)-- The Web Marketing Association is looking for the best
healthcare websites in the world as part of their 21st annual international WebAward Competition for
Web site development at www.webaward.org. The WebAwards is the standards-defining competition that
sets benchmarks for 96 industries, including healthcare, healthcare provider, medical, medical equipment,
biotechnology and pharmaceutical websites, based on the seven criteria of a successful web site. The
deadline for Healthcare websites to enter to be judged is May 31, 2017.
Excellence deserves recognition. The healthcare industry is very competitive when it comes to Web
development and many companies deserve to be recognized for their online efforts, said William Rice,
President of the Web Marketing Association. Healthcare web sites are typically strong in terms of
content and copywriting due to their role of helping the organization become a trusted medical source. In
past years, judges have also scored these sites well in ease of use, and design; however, they can tend to
lag in innovation and use of technology.
Websites are judged on seven criteria including design, innovation, content, technology, interactivity,
copy writing and ease of use. Each WebAward entry in the Health Care category is judged against other
healthcare sites and then against an overall standard of excellence.
All healthcare entrants benefit from receiving valuable feedback in terms of their specific criteria scores
compared against the average scores for their industry. They also may receive specific comments from
the WebAward's professional judging panel on their Web site development efforts.
Each year, the Web Marketing Association names the Best of Industry for the various health care
categories based on the score they receive from the WebAward judges.
