Tomorrow I’ll be presenting to a selection of Scottish Developers about my favourite subject Search Engine Optimization. It’s up in Dundee and you can find details about it @ eventbrite.
In essence I’ll be talking about the affect that server side issues and how HTML can be used to improve SEO performance of websites. HTTP headers [...]
I’m going to pull, what’s left, of my hair out if I have to deal with yet another one of my clients having an web development/design agency launch a website with no account for the affect upon either the clients sales or natural search.
