Reason #3 - Get Listed on Canada's Largest Wine Website
All wines entered in the World Wine Awards of Canada 2015, not just the medal winners, will be added to the WineAlign website along with high quality bottle images. All medal winning wines will receive professional reviews, many in both English and French. The wines are reviewed and scored blind by many of Canada's most respected wine critics.
Winning wines will also be tagged, categorized and flagged with virtual medals which will show in all searches and views on WineAlign. In addition, each of your wines on WineAlign will have a link to a separate page with more information about your agency and a list of your other wines in our database that may also be available to consumers.
This means that all wines entered into the Worlds, not just the medal winners, will benefit from being added to WineAlign.
As a result of our expansion into Quebec with Chacun son vin last year, we have continued our strong growth. All winning wines will be visible to the 1.5 million unique visitors we expect to have in the next 12 months.
Below are our traffic numbers for the last 12 months (July 13, 2014 to July 12, 2015). With our new and rapidly growing audience in Quebec and our continued penetration in Ontario and British Columbia we are now predicting that we'll have ONE MILLION UNIQUE VISITORS FROM CANADA IN 2015.
More importantly, over 45% of Canadian visitors are are RETURNING to WineAlign. Proving that we are a trusted wine resource that people are returning to again and again.
