Best of C-VILLE

For Local Businesses

Best of C-VILLE is designed to be a showcase for local businesses. We want to help you connect with longtime customers and find new ones.

You do not need to do anything, or pay anything, to participate in this contest. During our open nominations round, anyone can add your business to any appropriate category and you will immediately appear on the ballot. Top vote-getters during the nomination round will proceed to the final fixed-ballot voting round.

Here's our advice for business owners who want to participate:

• When the nominations round opens (on April 15, 2026), find the categories you'd like to be considered for and nominate yourself if you are not already on the ballot.

  Note: The nominations round for this contest has closed. If you made the final ballot, you can still encourage people to vote for you!

• Share the link to the category page with your family and friends, and post it on social media. Every vote counts!
• Claim your business using the form on this page. This helps our team know how to contact you if you move forward in the contest or if we have questions about your business details.
• For extra visibility, buy a sponsorship. We offer several kinds of sponsorships, detailed below. Although paid sponsors get no advantage in the contest itself, advertisements on the contest site can be an excellent way to build awareness for your brand.
