BBC News Online named Site of the Year
BBC News Online has been named Site of the Year by Internet Magazine, the UK's highest-circulation monthly covering the Net.
The site was chosen for its "continual improvement, interactivity, quality content and simplicity of navigation".
The finalists were the twelve sites chosen as Sites of the Month by the magazine's team of writers for each edition in 1998. Others included the Evening Standard's This is London, Silicon News and CDuctive.
It is the third top award in 1998 for BBC News Online. It has already picked up the British Interactive Media prize for top information site, and the first Bafta Interactive award for a news site.
It has also been a finalist in the UK Press Gazette and Yell awards.
Ambitious plans
Editor of BBC News Online, Mike Smartt, said: "It is particularly pleasing to get this award from fellow professionals who spend their whole working lives looking at Websites and evaluating their style and content.
"News Online has had an excellent year and as Internet Magazine has noted, we have ambitious plans for further improvements in 1999."
