After ideating, innovating, and inspiring, your work deserves recognition. We’re continuing to honor Internet excellence at the 31st Annual Webby Awards and we’d love for you to be a part of it. With hundreds of categories— including new and expanded honors— there’s a place for your work to be seen. Here’s how to find your best fit:
Step 1: Find Your Media Type
Start broad. The Webbys accepts work across nine media types: Websites & Mobile Sites, Video & Film, Advertising, Media & PR, Podcasts, Social, Games, Apps, Software & Immersive, Creators, and AI.
Pro tip: Projects can live in more than one media type. Don’t be afraid to enter across categories if your work spans multiple formats!
Step 2: Find Your Project Type
Once you know your media type, identify the product you created to select the best category for your project. Under each media type, the categories are designed to recognize the Internet’s full scope. Whether that’s Craft (Best AI Technical Achievement or Best Social Video Series) or specific niches (Art & Culture, Business & Finance, Entertainment or Meme and more).
Identify your project’s strengths and look at the category descriptions to find honors that best define your work.
Step 3: See Your Fit in Our New Categories
For our 31st season, we’ve expanded our honors to reflect the exciting changes we’ve seen across media, industries, and culture. While our categories are specific, they represent a wide range of creative and innovation work to enter for. This year, we’re introducing new recognitions for Creators, including Branded Entertainment and Real-Time Collaboration under Creator Business, and new Creator Excellence offerings like Best Visual Effects and Best Interview or Conversation, which, alongside an expanded Podcasts slate, offers more opportunities for digital creatives across the media landscape.
Recognizing the undeniable impact of sports, we’ve excited to introduced expanded honors for exceptional storytelling and production work related to athletics in categories across Video & Film, Social, Creators, Advertising, PR, Branded Content, and Podcasts.
There are also new opportunities for AI, including recognitions for Coding & Developer Tools, Best AI Co-Creation, Search & Knowledge and more to highlight the impact of new technologies on digital culture. No matter what you use and where your work lives, there’s a place for you in the legacy of the Webby Awards.
Step 4: Set Up a Webby Account
Don’t lose your work! Once you’ve submitted 5+ entries, you’ll be prompted automatically. But we recommend setting one up early. It keeps your submissions and payment history organized, and the entry site will keep your work in the cache in case you accidentally leave your browser.
Step 5: Know Your Role (Agency, Internal, PR)
You’ll notice that while entering, we’ll ask you to define “Your Role.” Why do we ask this? It is so we can credit you properly in our Winners Gallery (yes, we’re manifesting your win already). Here’s the breakdown:
- Agency work is made on the behalf of a client.
- Internal work is used by the company or brand which created it.
- PR firms submit work for the clients they represent.
