The Top 20 Brands Recognized by 1851’s Franchise Development Website Awards

After a year hiatus, 1851 Franchise’s Franchise Development Website Awards returned in May to determine the most effective and engaging development sites in franchising. Over 175 websites were submitted and reviewed by a panel of 10 industry experts to determine which franchise brands rose above the rest as it relates to the overall look and feel of their development website.

1851’s panel of judges evaluated each franchise development site according to three criteria: quality of site, quality of content and quality of form. Sites were scored on a five-point scale in accordance with these three criteria for a maximum score of 15 total points; the overall website rankings are based on a composite average of these scores.
