Burnham-On-Sea.com short-listed for 2007 'Web Site of The Year' title

Burnham-On-Sea.com has again been recognised as one of the region's top Web sites by being short-listed for the 2007 'Web Site of The Year' title in the annual South West Media Awards.

The awards recognise the very best of the West Country's newspapers, Web sites, radio stations and journalists - and competition was again tough this year.

A panel of leading judges comprising newspaper editors and communications bosses picked the cream of the crop from scores of entries - and the shortlist was announced on Monday (April 30th).

In the keenly-contested 'Web Site Of The Year' category, the entries have been whittled down to three sites: Burnham-On-Sea.com, BBC Bristol and the Exeter Express and Echo.

Burnham-On-Sea.com was also short-listed last year and went on to win the overall Website title. Website Manager Mark Newman said: "We're delighted. To get onto a shortlist from a strong line-up of nominees across the whole of the south west is once again very rewarding."

The team behind Burnham-On-Sea.com will be going to a ceremony in Bristol during June to find out who has won the overall award.

The awards, sponsored by EDF Energy, cover Cornwall, Devon, Somerset, Bristol, Bath, Wiltshire and Gloucestershire. Click here for the full list of short-listed organisations.
