CIO.com named in Website of the Year Top 10 Award, among other honors
Boston, Mass. – May 15, 2019 — IDG Communications, Inc. – the world’s leading tech media, data, and marketing services company – is proud to announce that the CIO, Computerworld, CSO, InfoWorld and Network World editorial teams earned a total of 13 National Azbee awards of Excellence, including CIO.com’s distinction of Website of the Year Top 10. The awards were presented by the American Society of Business Publication Editors (ASBPE), which honors the best in business-to-business journalism.
“For decades we have focused on the needs of enterprise tech professionals and answered them with insightful, solutions-oriented content,” said Eric Knorr, B2B Editor-in-Chief, IDG Communications, Inc. “This recognition is a true honor and testament to the outstanding efforts of our talented editorial teams. Our journalists are committed to creating the most credible, trusted and relevant content in the market, and it is exciting to see our commitment to quality being recognized by these prestigious awards.”
These awards span a variety of journalistic disciplines, from Web Article Design to Social Media Presence to Online E-Zine content, all of which would not be possible without the high quality and diverse talent of IDG’s editorial teams. This honor comes in addition to the team winning 33 Regional Azbee Awards across the five brands in April.
IDG Communications’ U.S. President Charles Lee echoed Knorr’s sentiments, saying these awards “are proof that investing in the right editorial talent for our brands drive results like this. Our commitment to quality journalism has translated into not only a total of 46 awards, but recognition for the cutting-edge content that attracts and engages the highest quality audience of tech buyers across the enterprise IT buying team spectrum.”
