ISL WK2: Semantic Coding Articles
SEO Best Practices for Coding Your Website
Semantic markup and Semantic coding Guidelines for SEO
Well, here we are again. More articles to read and another blog to write. So here we go.
If you take a look at the articles liked above you will find some very good information on semantic coding. As a matter of fact the first article led me to the second article. In these articles I learned what semantic code was and what it's good for. Apparently I was already using semantic code and didn't even know it. That is just the way I was taught. I didn't know that putting your title in an h1 tag helped with SEO, but know I do. It's good to know why we do things. I also learned that putting your CSS and Javascript in external style sheets improves loading time and helps with SEO as well. I just thought it was a better way to organize all your code. And I do like good organization. There is also a very good list of semantic code elements in both articles. I hadn't even heard of most of these things before. I might just have to print out that list and try and use these things more. Well there you have it. Two good articles and some interesting things I learned from them.
(Hope this was the type of blog response the teacher was looking for.)
