W3C Standards Based Web Design - Los Angeles - World Wide Web Consortium

Designing websites according to the W3C standards is an very important, but generally overlooked element of quality web development. Whether through lack of experience or lack of desire, many web designers and less sophisticated developers, simply take the shortest possible route to building a website that looks the way they want, with no regard to the quality of the actual web site's code.

Although such websites can still be effective, they may be sacrificing their long-term compatibility with future systems and browsers. The W3C is the World Wide Web Consortium, a non-biased organization whose role is to help develop the standards that enable the Internet to be.

The W3C creates the standards that define HTML, XHTML, CSS, XML and many more of the common systems utilized for web development. When a website is developed in strict accordance with these standards, you can be assured that the website will render the same in any standards compliant browser. Furthermore, you increase the compatibility with future devices and other web connected systems, like your smart phone, or braile readers.

Besides the technical advantages to a standards compliant website, there are benefits for your online marketing. Understanding and complying with the standards improves the structure of your websites, relaying more information to search engine crawlers like Googlebot.
