SEO Service - Web Standards
Our understanding of Web Standards will save you time and money, as well as pleasing the search engines.
Web Standards are a set of recommendations published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), a group of over 500 member organizations from around the world. The organization was created in 1994 "to lead the web to its full potential". Included in these recommendations are the HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) 4.01, XHTML (Extensible Hypertext Markup Language) and Cascading Style Sheets, level 2 (CSS2) specifications. In just a moment you will see how developing sites in accordance with Web Standards will not only make your website easier, less time consuming, and less expensive to maintain (along with many other significant benefits), but possibly more importantly for you, how it will add significantly to your search engine optimization strategy.
Standards compliant markup
Standards-compliant HTML, for today and for the future.
HTML is the authoring language used to create documents for the World Wide Web, and CSS is the language used in a file separate from html pages, there to specify the visual properties of the website, including the layout. One of the fundamental recommendations of Web Standards is to separate the content of your web pages (in your html files) from the presentational data (CSS) in this way.
Once a webpage is written and published on the web, a validation service may be used to check that the page in question has no syntax errors, and does in fact conform to strict XHTML 1.0 or HTML 4.01 markup. Strict markup differentiates from transitional markup in that strict does not allow the use of older and now deprecated html elements. The reason many of these older tags have been abandoned is that they have no semantic value, and were used for presentational purposes only. As previously mentioned, your site's presentational data should be limited to a separate CSS file. The one important piece of information not revealed by the validator is whether your document is semantically sound. For example, the use html of tables for layout of a page will not give you an error at validation time, even though tables are meant only for tabular data, not layout. In this example, the validation service wouldn't spit out an error because of the fact that HTML tables are allowed when authoring pages for a strict doctype, and the validator has no way of knowing that they've been used for non tabular data, as they have in this case.
