Easyspace Launches Ugly Site Contest.
2007-12-12, HostMan.biz
Easyspace.com, a web-hosting company, is inviting its customers and users to compete for a free website redesign worth £3,000. The company is offering four clients the chance to trade in their old, ugly websites for a brand new one with entrants being asked to explain why their website needs redesigned. The entries will be put online with visitors to the website invited to vote for the ugliest. The site with the most votes will receive a complete website make over to the value of £3,000.
The company claims that more than 500 entries have been received since the competition was launched on Monday. Brian Tait, online marketing manager at Easyspace.com, said: "Virtually every business has a website these days and they play a vital part in marketing and sales. However, many firms' sites are quite old now and often are very basic, are not taking advantage of new technology or are just plain dull looking. The importance of a good-looking, easy-to-use website cannot be underestimated which is why we decided to give our customers the opportunity to have their website completely redesigned. We've been amazed by the response so far."
The company is receiving submissions via the online form till 31 December. The four ugliest sites will be selected by judges and placed online with the winner chosen by public vote on January 18.
