San Diego- Gordon Rush, a leading American menswear designer, and Digitaria, a full-service digital marketing and technology firm, today announced that the Gordon Rush online store (www.gordonrush.com) was ranked “Best in Class” in the Interactive Media Awards™ competition. The site was honored specifically for excellence in Retail.
The Interactive Media Awards (IMA) score interactive projects on five specific criteria including design, usability, innovation in technical features, standards compliance and content. The Best in Class award represents the Web’s best in planning, execution and overall professionalism, and is the highest honor bestowed by the Interactive Media Awards. The Gordon Rush online store was recognized with the Best in Class honor after successfully passing through the comprehensive judging process and achieving the highest marks in each criteria - an achievement only a fraction of sites in the IMA competition earn each year.
“It is an honor to have our work recognized as one of the best in the Interactive Media Awards,” said Gordon Rush, the Company’s President, Founder, CEO and Designer. “The site is the number one destination for the Gordon Rush customer and exemplifies one of the many ways retailers can use the power of the internet to enhance a company's reach, message and branding.”
“This award further validates that Digitaria and Gordon Rush are working together to set new standards in the online retail world,” said Digitaria CEO, Daniel Khabie. “We are pleased to earn top rankings in categories including design, usability, feature functionality, compliance and content. We look forward to new opportunities to create powerful and appealing Web sites for our valuable clients.”
