==.info Awards==
Afilias holds an annual contest to award the owners of particularly inspired websites using the .info suffix. For the 2011 contest, the first prize winner was given $10,000 while second and third place were given $5,000 and $3,000 respectively. They are not necessarily looking for the best developed site, but sites that are intuitive and clearly provide information on their particular topic.<ref>[http://www.afilias.info/blogs/vhedderel/and-winners-2011-info-awards-are And Winners 2011 Info Awards are, Afilias.info]</ref>
