Web site code
The WSJ has some good articles on semantic Web search and it is something to think about when designing or making upgrades to your Web site.
If your design firm or agency does not not how to code the site they might do something like <font size="12"><b>This is the page head</b></font> but the correct way would be <h1>This is a heading</h1>. This is a very basic example and there is much more involved planning and thinking.
There is no tool that can check for semantic code it is a matter of looking at the code. A good place to start is by asking your Web designer if he or she codes semantically. If they look at you blankly or start stalling, you can be sure they don’t. Contact us and we can help you evaluate your Web site.
