- About

What Web Design Awards is built to do.

Founded in 2014, Web Design Awards is an international platform that honors freelance designers, studios, and agencies creating exceptional digital work across UI, UX, and modern web development.

For creators, the platform offers more than exposure. It creates a credible path to industry recognition, helps standout work reach a global audience, and gives teams a stronger way to position the quality of their craft.

- Awards

How the awards work.

Every judged entry is scored 0-10 on each of the 7 public criteria - User Experience & Strategy, Visual Design & Branding, Content & Storytelling, Accessibility & Inclusivity, Performance & Technical Implementation, Responsiveness & Multi-device Support, and Innovation & Future Readiness - and the weighted result is published on the entry's page.

Winners and Site of the Month are decided by those scores, never by votes. The one community-voted title is Site of the Day: it goes to the entry with the most public votes that day.

- Submissions

What we expect from every entry.

Entries should include accurate project details, a high-quality screenshot, and original work that is fully launched and ready to be reviewed.

Templates can be submitted, but original design and implementation stand out. We reserve the right to reject projects with errors, incomplete execution, or content that does not meet platform standards.

Submit work that deserves
recognition.

Enter your site, put it in front of judges and the public, and compete for awards that strengthen your studio, agency, or portfolio.
