Following last week’s nominations launch, the BRIT Awards website has seen record numbers of visitors as music fans log on to www.brits.co.uk to find out the latest news and information about next month’s ceremony.

Nomination voting this year is also available via the first ever BRITs iPhone app.  The BRIT Award 2012 with MasterCard app, which is available as a free download from Apple’s App Store, features news updates and competitions and will also allow fans to vote directly for the three award categories voted for by the public, namely British Single, British Group and British Breakthrough Act. Mobile users will also be able to view photos from the event and buy their favourite performance directly from iTunes after the show.

The app was downloaded over 12,000 times in the first week, with approximately 95% of people voting via their phone. News and updates on this year’s event are also now reaching over 1 million people via Facebook.
