Missouri’s Best 2019

I don’t see my business in the contest, what do I do?  Nominations for Missouri’s Best 2019 closed on January 24th.  If your business is not listed, email us at [email protected] and we may be able to help. 

How are nominations moderated?  We look to see that a business is in the correct category and that it is either located in Missouri.

Who is eligible to participate?  All nominees should have an actual Missouri business address.

How many categories can 1 business enter?  At this time, we do not have a specific restriction on the number of categories that a business can enter.  We do ask that businesses only enter into:
Categories that logically fit what they do.

I’m having trouble registering, what should I do?  When you start nominating or voting, you’ll be asked for your email address and zip code.  This will allow you to register, and you can continue making selections on the ballot.  If you encounter issues registering, please email us at [email protected] so we can assist you. 

How often can I vote?  Each person can vote once per day per category during the voting period, January 25 through February 28.

Can I create multiple user accounts to vote from?  No, users should only have one voting account.   Please note that the company that administers this contest will flag suspicious voting patterns, and may remove votes that violate the terms of this contest. 

I see ads for businesses on some of the categories, how can I get one of those?  Those ads are available for anyone who wants to increase their visibility in the contest.  Remember, once a person votes in the category they came in for, they will likely continue to vote in more categories, so having more visibility is important.  Contact us via email at [email protected] or call 573-284-5406 to learn more.  Some of the ads are limited to one per category and are available on a first come, first served basis.  

How are votes tracked?  We use a third party company that utilizes a variety of systems and techniques to monitor voting. They monitor things like the IP address where registration and votes come from, as well as voting patterns to assure a fair and equitable contest.  We reserve the right to remove fraudulent votes that this system may uncover significant evidence of a voting irregularity.
