On January 13th, the Penthouse Nightclub in West
Hollywood, California was electric, as the leaders of the gay online media and entertainment
industry gathered with an extremely loyal fan base to create one of the most
exciting events in our industry - the 16th Annual Cybersocket Web Awards!
Always happy to hang out with our
partners, merchants and their surfers, the CCBill team had a great time at the
event, and we were truly honored to be recognized by our peers, with an
Industry Choice Award.
The recognition of being awarded the prestigious Best Webmaster Resource Award further
solidifies the pride we at CCBill feel for servicing this incredible industry. Having so many respected industry members and
contemporaries vote for us in this category, simply put, means a lot to us.
We believe this Cybersocket Web Award reflects our mission
to improve and simplify payment services and business expansion opportunities
for adult webmasters. We have been busy
over the past couple years building additional systems and network resources to
achieve that goal. With the launch of the
Merchant
Connect one-click network we can help any member of the CCBill merchant
base grow their business; and by opening up our Integration Partners
program, our merchants can easily find and leverage integration tools,
software and plugins to automate and fuel their growth.
We definitely don’t intend to stop there. CCBill has some great plans for the future. With
this Best Webmaster Resource Award as an additional motivation, we will keep working
to be even better at what we do, by creating more options and value for our
merchants. After all, as Gary Jackson of
CCBill points out:
“This award honors the
work of the CCBill team and all the adult webmasters, who keep introducing
advanced systems to improve the online experience for their viewers, subscribers
and partners. We see this as a recognition of the innovation that is happening
in our industry and a way to celebrate a plethora of opportunities now
available for webmasters.”
This 2016 Cybersocket Web Award is definitely one of the differentiators
that has already marked our year. Together with an XBIZ Award 2016 for Billing
Company of the Year – IPSP, received at the XBIZ Awards on January 15th
; and a 2016 GFY Award for Best Billing
Company at the GFY Awards on January 18th, we hope that our
dedication and the pride we have for serving this industry is clear and strong
as ever.
As a final message, we want to offer a big ‘thank you’ to Cybersocket for supporting both the
industry and the surfers, with this impressive and important event. As Diamond
sponsors of the Cybersocket Web Awards, we at CCBill are delighted to think of
Cybersocket as one of our key media partners.
Many thanks too to all who voted for us. We hope that you will continue to be part
of the CCBill family and we look forward to seeing and catching up with you at the
upcoming industry events, including The Phoenix
Forum 2016 (Twitter: @TPFPHX) – March
31st - April 3rd at Tempe Mission Palms Hotel in Tempe
Arizona!
