Best Family Website Trends Detailed in New Report from the Web Marketing Association

West Simsbury, CT (PRWeb) March 19, 2007 -- www.07webaward.org -- The Web Marketing Association, host of leading website awards competition WebAwards, recently released the Internet Standards Assessment Report (ISAR), which includes specific benchmarking data to help the family industry create more award-winning websites.

"As the standard of excellence for websites continues to increase, web visitors are increasingly picky about what they consider to be an effective website," said William Rice, president of the Web Marketing Association. "Family Web sites tend to have a clear understanding of their target audience and provide strong content to support their user's experience."

The WebAwards competition evaluates family websites on seven criteria that combined create effective websites:
•    Design
•    Innovation
•    Content
•    Technology
•    Interactivity
•    Copywriting
•    Ease of use

The latest ISAR Index indicates that family web sites have consistently outperformed the ISAR Index for the past ten years. They are one of a handful of sites that excel year after year.

Family Websites are above average in terms of content compared to overall web development. Interactivity, copywriting, and ease of use continue to be the strong points for financial websites.

According to the ISAR Study, family web sites are typically right at average in technology, innovation, and design owing to their intended audience.

The 2006 WebAward for Best Financial Web site went to Family Cookbook Project for www.familycookbookproject.com.

Other past winners include:
- 2005 Family Cookbook Project for www.familycookbookproject.com
- 2004 Zipatoni for Bring Elsie Home
- 2003 BabyCenter.com for BabyCenter's website
- 2002 Ripple Effects Interactive for Experience PA Web Site
