Awwwards (Awwwards Online SL) is an organization that hosts web design competitions and conferences across Europe and the United States.[2] Website owners and developers can participate by submitting their websites for review. Submissions are assessed by a jury, and top entries are presented and awarded prizes on a rotational basis.

Nomination process

Web designers submit their websites through Awwwards' platform for consideration for the Site of the Day.[3] A jury, composed of industry professionals, and the Awwwards community evaluate the entries. The best daily sites are published annually in "The 365 Best Websites Around the World" book.[1]

Jury

The jury consists of international designers, developers, and agencies [4] who assess the creativity, technical skills, and insight of the submitted web projects. The panel's expertise ensures a comprehensive review process.[1][5]

Developer Award

Awwwards, in partnership with Microsoft, created the Developer Award to recognize web developers who demonstrate excellence in creating websites that meet modern standards. The award highlights websites that work seamlessly across various platforms and devices, using best practices in HTML5, JavaScript, and CSS.

Annual winners

Some prominent Site of the Year winners include Mercedes-Benz, Bloomberg L.P., Bose Corporation, Warner Brothers, Volkswagen, Uber, and Google.[6]

Awwwards conference

Awwwards also organizes two-day conferences featuring speakers from major tech companies and industry leaders such as Microsoft, Google, Spotify, Adobe, Opera, and Smashing Magazine.[7][8] These events focus on the latest trends in web design and development.
