Site Updates

Just a quick programming note, I am working on rebuilding YourSearchAdvisor.com from the ground up. The funny thing is, it won’t look very different than it does now unless you look at the source code. The old version of the site was built primarily on nested HTML tables and a little CSS. The new version will attempt to eliminate as many of the tables as possible and position everything using valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional code and CSS styles.

Why would I fix something that ain’t broke?

  1. I knew I could do it better.
  2. Nested tables aren’t good for search engine accessibility.
  3. Simple changes to the header and footer required updating every single page. Now I can control all of those elements from one file.
  4. The new structure is a much stronger foundation to build upon.

Which brings me to my next point. Once the code update is complete, I will be much more dramatically overhauling the content. I’ve had this site up for a little over a year and I want to make it more of a resource than a brochure. Practice what you preach, right?

I’d love any feedback you have: good, bad, or indifferent. Notice anything out of place or broken? Please contact me and I’ll fix it right away. Content suggestions are also welcome.
