Transparent Visitor-Choice Festival Awards
Create awards that celebrate excellence without allowing advertising spend to determine results.
Publish eligibility dates, categories, nomination rules, voter verification, conflict policies and tie-breaking methods before voting opens. Limit duplicate or automated votes and audit unusual patterns. Paid listings, sponsorships and advertising must not buy nominations or wins. A judging panel, if used, should disclose criteria and relevant conflicts. Retain results and correction history so winners and visitors can understand the process.
