LOS ANGELES — Angie Rowntree’s Sssh.com has received three nominations in the 2017 XBIZ Awards, to be held Thursday, Jan. 12 at the Westin Bonaventure Hotel in Downtown Los Angeles and hosted by Ron Jeremy. 

Sssh.com is up for Adult Site of the Year for Women and Progressive Web Company of the Year as well as Best Sex Scene: Virtual Reality for “Empowering Ava: A Virtual Reality Experience” in conjunction with production partner, Pervout.com.

Rowntree is nominated in the Progressive Leadership Award category in the 2017 XBIZ Executive Awards, to be held separately at the Andaz Hotel on West Hollywood’s Sunset Strip in January.

“I want to thank the nomination committee at XBIZ for recognizing the quality of our work on Sssh.com,” Rowntree said. “This endeavor is not just a business, but also, a labor of love for me and all of the contributors to the site which have paved new pathways into mainstream media and spotlighted porn for women as a legitimate and positive adult entertainment niche. I am so honored by all these nominations."
