The Interactive Media Awards recognize the highest standards of excellence in Web site design and development and honor individuals and organizations for their outstanding achievement.

Created by the Interactive Media Council, Inc. (IMC), a nonprofit organization of leading Web designers, developers, programmers, advertisers and other Web-related professionals, the competition is designed to elevate the standards of excellence on the Internet and offer winners a boost in marketing and exposure. IMC serves as the primary sponsor and governing body of the Interactive Media Awards, establishes the judging system and provides the judges for the competition.

It is not easy to win a Web award from the IMA, but for those who survive the comprehensive judging process, a series of powerful tools await to help broadcast your success. In addition to the IMA Digital Award Icon linking your site to a unique and marketable award page on the IMA site, winners also have access to our winner tools, which allow winners to customize online awards, notify clients and colleagues and draft press releases.

The 2008 Call for Entries Q4 deadline has been extended through 15 January, so you still have a chance to enter. Visit the site to learn more about the list of categories and to read the competition rules for site eligibility requirements, international entry information and other details.
