"As the standard of excellence for websites continues to increase, web visitors are increasingly picky about what they consider to be an effective website," said William Rice, president of the Web Marketing Association. "Financial websites going forward will need to find a balance between what the web visitor craves in terms of innovation and technology and what the industry demands in terms of regulation."
The WebAwards competition evaluates financial websites on seven criteria that combined create effective websites:
? Design
? Innovation
? Content
? Technology
? Interactivity
? Copywriting

Financial services Web sites have underperformed the ISAR index for the last five consecutive years. The most recent underperformance resulted in the industry scoring below the 5-year criteria benchmark averages in all areas. According to the study, financial services Web sites are strongest in content, copywriting, and ease of use. They lag in technology and innovation.
The 2007 WebAward for Best Financial Web site went John Hancock Funds, LLC for Financial Professional Website.
