This month, multiple Alabama websites, built and hosted by
Alabama Interactive, were recognized by two award competitions: The
Center for Digital Government’s Government Experience Awards and
the Web Marketing Awards. Both prestigious competitions judge and
award websites that are not only improving but also innovating the
way citizens interact with government online.
Alabama.gov and the official website of the Alabama Department
of Conservation & Natural Resources, OutdoorAlabama.com
received the Government Standard of Excellence award from the Web
Marketing Award competition. This is the third award for
Alabama.gov and the second for OutdoorAlabama.com in this
competition. The websites received high scores from judges in the
user accessibility and technology categories. Both websites offer a
prominent and interactive search feature, which received praise
from the judges. In addition to the search, both websites were
ranked highly for ease of use, an increasing priority of citizens
needing to access specific information in the fewest number of
clicks.

Government Experience Awards issued by the Center for Digital
Government this month. Alabama was one of 10 states that were 2018
