Hi All

One of my sites won a bronze award here (Its on the home page there)

http://webawards.co.za/main.php

Have anyone won something here ? Cant really see whats the use of it :wtf: As to me it looks like anyone can start a site like this

Also apparently your site is reviewed by 3 panellist now the funny part the only website with Gold status looks to me like the company that developed that site (Maybe they part of the anc) :D

Websites submitted to SA Web Awards are evaluated according to four categories: content, layout, functionality and overall appeal. The judges' scores for each category can be viewed by the website's owner or webmaster after the website has been reviewed.

What I dont seem to understand

Basically for me a site achieving any award has to be the following

- Easy to navigate
- W3C Compliant (Yes it has to be)
- No flash
- Well structured sites - no pop ups and crap like that
- Contents this is a difficult part but just needs to be relevant no use in showing a graphics banner on a plumbers website
- Overall layout not cluttered
- SEO (Img alt tag, html 5 tags, use of <bold>, h1, mostly basics )

Can you guys recommend some criteria as well please

My site I would give about 70% some of the sites on there is not even 20%

Congrats.

Myself won a couple of awards there, although I am not sure about the manner in which they decide or who even decide...
 
I don't see the point of reviewing web sites. It's not like it's a try before buy scenario.. just go there and see for yourself.
