Your code is not valid

Just to let every one know Rob is doing this for me.
Your code is not valid
I used to care about validation — then I realized the search engines didn’t care about it, so I stopped caring too.
I used to spend hours trying to figure out why something wasn’t validating. Sometimes it would be something stupid like having an ampersand symbol somewhere on the page. The “proper” way to show an ampersand is by writing: & a m p ; (the only way I can get it to display properly here is to add spaces between each letter. Within the HTML, there wouldn’t be any spaces between the letters). Why & a m p ; is the “proper” way is beyond me — it’s longer than simply writing “&” and it requires an ampersand symbol anyway! Go figure.
Anyway, my current philosophy is, “if it looks good, it works for me.”

True validation doesn’t mean much to google but does that mean its ok? If your going to do something do it the right way. This is your job.
I only use the validator to find open/missing or improperly nested html tags.
Most of the affiliate banner code does not validate anyway.Rob472 wrote:True validation doesn’t mean much to google but does that mean its ok? If your going to do something do it the right way. This is your job.Actually validation doesn’t mean much to ANYONE at all.
Actually yes it does. People that care about web standards, pages rendering properly across many browsers and faster page loading, care about validation. While I agree that dumb little this like & vs & ; or > vs /> have no affect what so ever on the above its not the point. There is a right way and wrong way to do things. Just because it works doesn’t mean thats how its supposed to be done. If your going to tell the web browser what doctype to render your page in, you should be conforming to the rules of that doctype.
Its pretty simple. If you have any errors that would hinder the search bots from crawling your site, or any type of usability errors, then you should take the time to fix it. Anything else is waste of time and it would behoove you to spend that time building links or something that will bear fruit.
The problem is many of us in this business are not programers, so spending hours upon hours to fix something just so some website can give you a 100% score is silly, unless the errors are causing any genuine problems with your visitors or the bots. But I understand how some people are ficklers about things being right, and if it gives you peace of mind to fix all these errors, spend a nominal fee get er done. But I personally don’t sweat it.
i know Jack Sh1t about code
I know know googles homepage has almost nothing on it ( a few links and a search tab etc)

51 errors lol – if google dont care, either do i
But you very much SHOULD make sure your code is good enough to display perfectly accross all browsers ( well FF, IE6, IE7 and maybe Safari).
But Rob, while i agree with you that anything you do should be done the right way, but within reason – we are all in this to make money and this is our business – It would be really stupid and unproductive of me to spend my time on somthing that will show no return and not make a single bit of difference to my bottom line – Bottom line is what counts.
