Cross Browser Compatibility

Nowadays there is a great number of web browsers you may use for web surfing and all of them have different standards. What are the very differences between the browsers? The thing is that they use HTML, CSS and JavaScript with some distinctions, whether only cosmetic or serious ones which may even break the website. That is why sometimes a website runs in one browser but fails to load in another one,so the web developers should cope with these differences somehow. And as you cannot guess what exact web browser a person will use for viewing web pages, the solution is to make a website fully compatible which means that it will appear more or less the same in all popular web browsers such as Internet Explorer, Firefox, Opera and others.

Website Net Speed: Download Speed

Your audience is task focused. They aren't there to hang out and the quicker they can achieve their goals, the more likely they will enjoy the expedience.

The web is speeding up. The introduction of fast, simple web applications has raised the bar for faster browsing. If you don't keep up (or push the envelope) your website will become irrelevant.

The way people browse sites changes depending on how speedily they anticipate reaching their goals. If your website is faster, people will spend more time browsing through it, which means they will view more webpages and complete more actions.

Website Accessibility

Web accessibility refers to the practice of making websites usable by people of all abilities and disabilities. When sites are correctly designed, developed and edited, all users can have equal access to information and functionality. For example, when a site is coded with semantically meaningful HTML, with textual equivalents provided for images and with links named meaningfully, this helps blind users using text-to-speech software and/or text-to-Braille hardware. When text and images are large and/or enlargeable, it is easier for users with poor sight to read and understand the content. When links are underlined (or otherwise differentiated) as well as colored, this ensures that color blind users will be able to notice them. When clickable links and areas are large, this helps users who cannot control a mouse with precision. When pages are coded so that users can navigate by means of the keyboard alone, or a single switch access device alone, this helps users who cannot use a mouse or even a standard keyboard. When videos are closed captioned or a sign language version is available, deaf and hard of hearing users can understand the video. When flashing effects are avoided or made optional, users prone to seizures caused by these effects are not put at risk. And when content is written in plain language and illustrated with instructional diagrams and animations, users with dyslexia and learning difficulties are better able to understand the content. When sites are correctly built and maintained, all of these users can be accommodated while not impacting on the usability of the site for non-disabled users.

Website Validation Report from W3C

Validating a website is the process of ensuring that the pages on the website conform to the norms or standards defined by various organizations. Validation is important, and will ensure that your web pages are interpreted in the same way (the way you want it) by various machines, such as search engines, as well as users and visitors to your webpage.

Conforming to standards and regulations is one of the many ways you can make your website universally understood. Make sure your codes and styles validate across the board. That means they have to meet the "strict" standards set by the W3C Organization and pass a variety of validations for CSS and XHTML.

Website SEO

Website search engine optimization (SEO) is the process of improving the volume or quality of traffic to a web site from search engines via "natural" or un-paid ("organic" or "algorithmic") search results as opposed to search engine marketing (SEM) which deals with paid inclusion. Typically, the earlier (or higher) a site appears in the search results list, the more visitors it will receive from the search engine. SEO may target different kinds of search, including image search, local search, video search and industry-specific vertical search engines. This gives a web site web presence.

As an Internet marketing strategy, SEO considers how search engines work and what people search for. Optimizing a website primarily involves editing its content and HTML and associated coding to both increase its relevance to specific keywords and to remove barriers to the indexing activities of search engines.
