Validation - Coding to Global Standards

What is the benefit of validated web sites?

Code that is not valid is code that is not correct. This can cause a whole host of issues, such as not working on some people's computers, loading slowly and even crashing some people's computers. However, let's say a web site has been constructed, tested rigorously and found to work for everyone without any issues. If the developer has not used valid code, when the next version of an internet browser is released the site may not work at all.

What is W3C Validation?

The global organisation that manages web standards (W3C - World Wide Web Consortium) provides a service that checks your web site to ensure the code is 100% correct.

Does Sweeb Validate?

Yes. All sites that SWEEB makes are fully validated. Before we release a web site onto the web, we have every page checked by the W3C to ensure that both the XHTML and CSS (the core languages of web sites) are 100% correct.

The symbols at the bottom of this page on this site are certifications that our web site has been perfectly built. Every site we build earns these. Click them yourself to check that we do, indeed, use valid code.
