ResellerClub who has reiterated their growing focus on empowering web designers and web developers, has also built a comprehensive online portal for this community to showcase their portfolio, interact with peers and experts as well as derive inspiration from other terrific works of design. Speaking about this launch, Shridhar Luthria, General Manager and Business Head of ResellerClub said, "In my webinar at the start of the year, I received fantastic feedback from the Web Designer and Developer (WDD) community about the way the industry is currently positioned and decided that this was going to be ResellerClub's primary goal this year - enabling WDDs. SiteWars is a platform that we hope will encourage healthy competition and incentivize the industry to come up with even better UX styles than ever before. For this contest, we've teamed up with Donuts who are a perfect fit as they have a wide portfolio of domain extensions that can cater to most industries that a WDD would service. The WDD portal we've built is for the web design and development community to upskill, compete, collaborate and network."

ResellerClub has tied up with Donuts, the domain registry to host 'SiteWars', which will feature an esteemed panel of judges including Jeff Davidoff (CMO, Donuts); Adel Anwar (Design Lead, Google) and Mike Miller (Creative Director, Mojo Marketplace). The contest which is opened for registrations on 28th April will be on till June 14th and winners will be declared on June 29th.

One of the judges, Jeff Davidoff (CMO, Donuts) said, "Web designers and developers are at the vanguard of the web presence industry and the rapid change in content formats, device sizes and interfaces as well as availability of 'not-com' domain extensions have thrown open fantastic opportunities to UI or UX creators to showcase their creativity. Through a platform like SiteWars, we want to reward the brightest ideas that make the web an intuitive and engaging experience and usher in the next phase of the not-com revolution. I'm very excited at the prospect of evaluating some path-breaking designs and look forward to a fair and fierce contest. We appreciate ResellerClub's initiative to encourage the community to grow and hone skills and are proud to be associated with such an event. We wish all the participants the very best."
