The awards were open to all e-commerce enabled websites in South Africa. The voting went through a process of nominations by the public that was shortlisted by Jump Shopping. The voting was then opened to the public for almost a month, from where the final voting was done by the judges.
Bredenhann adds that there are many online stores which did not make it to this year's awards but their efforts are not going unnoticed.
The next E-Commerce Awards are already in the planning and Jump Shopping is planning on having an international speaker present at the 2007 event; more details will be available shortly.
