From the announcement, which will undoubtedly give the Webby Awards a Kardashian-sized traffic bump:

It is to her credit that the phrase "break the Internet" is part of the lexicon of everyday speak—she has shaped our understanding of how someone or something can draw the popular attention of Internet users everywhere. To the degree that she's created a new type of celebrity — publicizing her life to the benefit of herself and her family — is due to the Internet. Kim's preternatural sense of being in the public eye, sees her appearing at seemingly every major cultural moment, most notably, her support of Caitlyn Jenner's sex change.

In addition to her social media presence, Kardashian is being honored for her apps Kimoji and Kim Kardashian: Hollywood -- a pair of cash machines that have brought in over $100 million since launch.

sorry I'm late to the party guys I was busy cashing my 80 million video game check & transferring 53 million into our joint account 🤑🤑🤑💰💰💰 — Kim Kardashian West (@KimKardashian) March 8, 2016

Her husband Kanye West, meanwhile, is also getting a Webby nod for Artist of the Year thanks to his constant tinkering with The Life of Pablo.
