What is The Cool Tool Awards?

Since 1997 The Cool Tool Awards has surfed the web in search of cool products and services. We receive hundreds of nominations each week from around the world, but we select only 1% for evaluation and review. 

How are products evaluated?

Products are rated on the following attributes:

- Ease of Use/Help File

- GUI Interface

- Software Installation/Uninstall

- Visible Bugs or Quirks

- Quality of Technical Support

- Degree of Innovation

- Price versus Performance

What type of awards can I receive?

Cool Tool Awards come in three levels: Bronze, Silver and Gold. To receive a Gold award, a product or service must be the best of breed in its respective class. Recipients are encouraged to post their award on their web site and to cross-link to their review.

What's the benefit to receiving a Cool Tool Award?

Prestige and Traffic. The Cool Tool Awards is the Cadillac of web awards, and is recognized for the quality, honesty and integrity of its reviews. People trust our recommendations and look for our awards on web sites, on product packaging and collateral.

We also have a knack for boosting your popularity. A casual search of most of the products we have reviewed will reveal high ranking for our reviews in popular search engines such as Google and Yahoo. 

For instance, within two weeks of reviewing Armand Morin's Audio Generator product, a search for the term "Audio Generator" revealed our review page at the top of Google and Yahoo listings. While we can never guarantee such placements for everyone, this is a tremendous benefit of having a review on The Cool Tool Award web site. 

The Cool Tool Awards is in the Top 100,000 Most Popular web sites according to Alexa.
