Web Standards - Ensuring Everything Works

With all the different browsers available today, a website must conform to industry standards to be viewable by them all. Unlike print media, a website is assembled by the browser and if this doesn't receive the instructions it expects your site could be a flop.

We adhere to the W3c standards in designing our sites. For example we don't use tables to layout a page, a common practice that for technical reasons should be avoided. Tables should be used only for displaying tabular data. All sites are compliant with the latest in design specifications, guidelines and standards.

The new way of arranging page layout on a screen is to use Cascading Style Sheets (CSS). We make extensive use of CSS in all our designs. We adhere to the practice of separating layout from content currently by the use of CSS technology.

The code behind our sites had been carefully optimized and streamlined, making it both load quicker and be search engine friendly.
