I don't know -- perhaps they are "Mutual Award Societies". I suspect some will not give an award unless the site in question first links to them.
No, it is more sinister than that. They're hoping you brag about your award, effectively giving them free advertising. You can even put their award logo in your web page, and when the user clicks on it, they whiz away to the awarder's website, usually a commercial operation.
