LuKreme, As a long-time webmaster, HTML coder, and member of Google's Webmaster Tools, it is my understanding that the Googlebot carefully scrutinizes everything in an HTML document, including code structure. The more perfect everything is, both in your code, as well as in your actual content, the higher rating its algorithm will give your page, and the higher your pages will appear in Google's SERP's.
The proof is in the pudding. Google my name "Bill Kochman", or my primary website "Endtime Prophecy Net" and see what kind of results you get. I have been very well placed in the Google universe for years. :) But that is really all besides the point. My purpose in sharing my previous message here was to simply inform other concerned BBEdit users that I had found a free worthy replacement for BBEdit's built-in Tidy functions. In fact, Jim Derry has been actively communicating with me regarding his app via email since yesterday. He is very responsive, and is even now making some improvements to Balthisar Tidy, based on some of my comments to him. He may roll out new versions in a matter of a few days, he hopes. Oh, one other thing that he mentioned to me is that he is going to work on making his app a system service, which will more easily integrate it with BBEdit. > On Nov 9, 2014, at 9:40 AM, LuKreme <[email protected]> wrote: > > On Nov 8, 2014, at 7:49 AM, WordWeaver777 <[email protected]> wrote: >> If you are a web designer and HTML coder who is picky about your HTML code, >> and who wants to make Googlebot happy, > > Since when does google care at all about how HTML is formatted? -- This is the BBEdit Talk public discussion group.
