Standards Based Web Design

At the most fundamental level, a “standards-based” website is one which aims to present your business information in the most effective and efficient way possible, properly displayed across multiple devices, platforms, and browsers; be available to users with disabilities; and be built with clean, well written code.

A standards-based website adheres to W3C specifications for the language in which the page was written, such as HTML, XHTML, and CSS. These specifications dictate the proper way to build a web page using best practices that emphasize semantically correct and valid code and user-centric page structures such as friendly URLs.

The main purpose to adopt these standards is to produce usable sites that are clean, accessible, and search engine friendly.

Visualis Web Design is committed to create great looking websites that adhere to these standards.
