Today is deadline to enter APSE Web contest by sending quick note to Phil Kaplan Nov. 29, 2009

The long-awaited move by APSE to start judging Web content will be included as we decide the best from 2009. For the first time, APSE will award the best Web sites by member newspapers.

To enter, news organizations must include in an e-mail your organization’s name, division (over or under 1 million unique monthly users), Web site link or links, form letter if necessary to explain Web sites to judges, and contact information. Send contest entry to philkaplan2002@yahoo.com by Monday, Nov. 30.

Dues must be paid.

Random dates will be chosen in December (only known to judges) to view a newspaper’s Web site. A newspaper entry can have multiple Web sites for sports. A form letter should be included to explain to judges.

Web sites will be evaluated using three areas:

Content: Stories and multimedia components (55 percent).

Design: The look, feel and navigation of the Web site (35 percent).

Interactive: Use of comments, polls and other elements for visitors (10 percent).

The top 10 Web sites will be chosen with another 10 selected for honorable mention in both divisions.

Comments are closed.
