O.N.Z.C.D.A™ awards are currently valued according to the following numeric process:

•  Merit Award - Un-rated and with no Halls of Recognition points value, this award may be achieved when issued at the discretion of our Judges as an encouragement to web site owners who have clearly displayed effort input within their web sites but where our minimum points requirement has not been reached.

Points applicable as determined by the  Halls of Recognition Worksheet

•  Bronze Award - (Value: .25 points.)

•  Silver Award - (Value: .333 points.)

•  Gold Award - (Value: .5 points.)

•  Platinum Award - (Value: 1 point.)

•  Web Site of Month Award - (Value: 1 point.)

•  Web Site of Year Award - (Value: 1 point.)

Only the highest level award points apply if a web site has achieved several levels from the same award program. This means that if a web site achieves our Platinum, Web Site of the Month and Web Site of the Year awards the 1 point value applies only to the highest award this being the Web Site of the Year award. This is in line with Award Sites! allocating only one point if a web site has achieved more than one award from the same award program.
