Earn Recognition for Your Web Design Skills
Do you want prospective employers to recognize the quality of your work? It's one thing for you to tell them that your design skills are outstanding; it's another matter entirely when a third party validates the excellence exhibited in your work. That's why it's a good idea to enter your best work in web design awards programs and showcase any recognition that you earn on your resume and in your portfolio. When you are able to earn recognition as an award winning web designer, your credibility as a professional – and your appeal to employers – is likely to rise!
Choosing Web Design Awards Programs
Before you can be recognized for your award winning web site design, you first need to enter your work in appropriate competitions. Be sure that any contests that you enter are truly competitions, not pseudo-awards programs that simply trade recognition for payment. Those who employ web designers are likely to know which programs are valid and which don't really mean anything, so focus on recognized programs that will have a positive impact on your professional image. Examples of reputable website design awards programs include The Annual Interactive Media Awards (www.interactivemediaawards.com) and the Web Marketing Association's WebAwards (www.webaward.org) programs.
