The Weekly Link Award


Welcome to the Weekly Link Award homepage!




All Web sites of our user-submitted link collection are of unique interest and value.
Being featured in it, that already means receiving an award from one's own visitors.

In addition, in January 2002 we created the Weekly Link Award for listed Web sites that distinguish themselves for
  • originality of concept,
  • easiness of navigation,
  • pleasant design,
  • clarity and completeness of information,
  • browser-independent accessibility,
and that
  • give visitors the sensation to really have found what they are looking for,
  • make them feel at home and want to come back again,
  • give a considerable contribution to the Internet community.
Only a "giving" site that enphasizes those qualities, a "gemstone" in our precious collection, can win the Weekly Link Award.

The prestige of the Weekly Link Award is increased by the fact that it is not possible to directly apply for it and that only a Web site a week may receive it.

If you want to be informed about the new winner, every Sunday, you can subscribe to our Weekly Link Award Newsletter via RSS or e-mail. You may also follow us on Twitter.
