This article contains information about what HTML validation is and when or if you should validate. It lists a number of validators, some of which at the time this article was published no longer were being supported.

This article also mentions that blockquote can’t be checked by validators. I further investigated this and found conflicting information. See

Title: The 10 Biggest Search Engine Optimization Mistakes: #5 No H1 Tags’

Author: David Bain

Date: N/A

Article Source: http://www.article2k.com

Site Address: http://www.articles2k.com/related/html-tags/

This article briefly discussed the meaning of H1 tags and its importance to many search engines. The article recommended that H1 tags be utilized instead of the now more popular image-based headings. The article explained that web pages that contain text-based headings (H1 tags) are more likely to appear higher in search engines compared to web pages that use image-based headings.

I learned that when designing a web page it is important to design your page not only to look good but also be search engine friendly.
I believe that the information in this article will be useful to me in the future
