Awards judges announced
TravelMole has lined up a stellar panel of judges for its 2005 Travel & Tourism Web Awards.
Now in its third year the Travel & Tourism Web Awards seek to recognise excellence in the arena of online travel.
TravelMole is asking its readers to nominate their favourite website and your own websites via the web awards page on TravelMole.com – http://www.travelmole.com/ web_awards/index.php.
The nominated websites will be whittled down by an initial panel of judges from OneGlobeNetwork and a group of travel industry MBA students and from this shortlist a final panel of judges will pick the winners.
So far on this panel is John Lawrence, Worldchoice IT director, Susie Greenwood, Greenwood Associates web consultant and former online marketing manager with BTI UK and Hilary Murphy, at professor at Ecole Hotelière Lausanne.
The winning website in each category will be the one judged to have the clearest purpose, best functionality, and most aesthetically pleasing design.
Sponsors signed up so far for this year’s event are: Dolphin Dynamics, Vertical Group, Octopustravel.com, P&P Consulting, Sabre Travel Network, and Worldspan.
Nominated sites do not have to be UK-based, however there should be some significant UK-facing element to their content.
Sites need be nominated only once.
Multiple endorsements will not increase a site’s chances of winning.
Nominations close on 29 March and a shortlist will be published on the week commencing 11 April.
The presentation of awards is on April 22 in London, venue to be confirmed.
