LOS ANGELES, July 14 /PRNewswire/ -- Capital Gold Group, Inc. has earned a Distinguished Honoree medal in the Websites & Blogs Category in The 2010 International Business Awards for its new website, "www.StartWithGold.com".  The International Business Awards is the only global, all-encompassing business awards program honoring great performances in business.

Capital Gold Group CEO, Jonathan Rose, RFC, announced the achievement at their headquarters in Woodland Hills, California, USA, and congratulated the members of the collaborative team responsible for the design and content.  "We know that owning real gold is essential to a balanced portfolio, but it is a new concept to most investors.  Our goal was to create a website that would help the beginner gain an immediate understanding of real gold and how it can help them protect and preserve their long-term wealth.  I believe we have achieved that, and the judges apparently agreed," said Mr. Rose.

Honorees were selected from more than 1,700 entries received from organizations and individuals in more than 40 countries.

Nicknamed the "Stevie®" for the Greek word "crowned," the awards will be presented to honorees at a gala dinner on Monday, September 27, 2010, at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Istanbul, Turkey.

Organizations all over the world are eligible to compete in The International Business Awards and can enter in any of more than 40 categories from Multinational Company of the Year and Best New Product of the Year to Corporate Social Responsibility Program of the Year and Executive of the Year.

Honorees were determined through two rounds of judging by professionals worldwide. Capital Gold Group's new website, www.StartWithGold.com, was named a Stevie Distinguished Honoree after receiving high scores in the pre-judging and final judging rounds.

"It is obviously a huge honor to have your work recognized by the judges of The International Business Awards," said Brenda Whitman, creator of CGG's marketing communications and member of the collaborative team at Capital Gold Group along with CEO Jonathan Rose.  "We are very grateful to the judges for recognizing our joint effort, and I want to acknowledge Mr. Rose for his clear vision and guidance, as well as our partners at Adaptium, a Technology and Branding Company, for their invaluable contribution in design and functionality."
