MORE than 1000 online voting forms have been submitted for the 2018 Douglas Business and Tourism Awards.

A digital counter visible on the voting website allows people real time access to forms being lodged as the annual awards program continues to grow in popularity.

The first 1000 forms means over 5000 votes have already come in for local businesses across the Douglas Shire.

Voting opened last month and is being compiled exclusively online this year.

“We received tremendous feedback from the new style of voting last year, which allowed customers to simply select from businesses already nominated and vote,” Awards Coordinator Irene Cats said.

“With businesses making the ‘vote for us’ button available it means more customers and visitors will vote, which will make the program more exciting for everyone involved.

"Voting by choosing from a list of options makes life easier for our voters and increases the total number of votes."

Businesses who are not mentioned in their relevant category are encouraged to email irene@tourismportdouglas.com.au.

Voting will close in late October with the winners announced at the Awards Gala Night in November.
