The
Black Web Awards
Launched in the Spring of 2006,
the Black Web Awards began as an
effort to highlight the myriad
of original, positive websites
with content from the Black
perspective. Hosted exclusively
at
BlackWebAwards.com,
the
BlackWebAwards
endeavored to produce an
original event where the
internet public both nominated
and later vote for their
favorite websites in one of just
under one hundred categories
ranging from religion and
politics to entertainment and
culture.
The representatives of Linton
Publishing were surprised and
humbled over the outpouring of
interest and enthusiasm in both
the nomination process and the
votes cast. Over 5,000 original
nominations were cast from 35
countries, and over 118,000
votes were cast from over 80
countries. In year two, nearly
650,000 votes were cast from 130
countries. By all measures, the
Black Web Awards became an
international success. We
anticipate a phenomenal
outpouring of support in year
Three, as we return several Top
categories from year one, and
some domains will work to defend
their title of Best in category,
while fans and supporters of new
websites will get the
opportunity to participate.
On behalf of
Linton
Publishing, LLC, we welcome
you to the new
BlackWebAwards.com
website. We invite you to visit
the various pages, review the
rules and watch the announcement
of winners from our first year.

Awards, feel free to contact us
