SoloDesign SITE Showcased in Top CSS Sites on the Net!
It is very exciting to be recognized for innovative design while still maintaining a strong commitment to web standards. The Dusty Cover was recently showcased on CSSMania and Most Inspired! Expect to see more SoloDesign sites showcased in these galleries in the days to come.
Why Web Standards?
As websites increasingly need to adhere to certain requirments, the benefits of a standards-based site are invaluable to you and your users.
Having content and style separate, we are able to make quick style changes in one location that will affect the entire site, allowing for simple visual consistency, and effecient, cost effective site managment.
This in turns means that website maintenance is quick and less expensive, allowing a single change to impact every page necessary.
We know that one of the most important features of your website is its being found by as many potential users as possible.
As traditional tables-based websites become increasingly incompatible with various mediums, such as cell phones, PDA's and screen readers, web standards empowers your site to reach more people than ever.
The clean, compact code also makes it easier for content to be read by search engines, translating into better ranking and results.
