How to fix issues found on Nibbler/Sitebeam

    Hi guys!

    I’d like to ask you something.

    I am about to launch a website, and I used Nibbler and Powermapper to make some tests on it.

    There are several issues going on with my site. Mostly because I am arranging it by myself, I guess. And most of the things Nibbler and Powermapper told me to fix, I have no idea how to fix them (sometimes I didn’t even understand what actually they meant).

    So… do you have any tips of where I could test & fix my website, at the same place?

    One place that could test and fix it? Or a place where I could test and they gave me the instructions on how to fix it? Or, maybe a plugin?

    I am very worried about my site right now ??

    Thank you guys!

    Cheers!

    And these things would be???????

    These are:

    NIBBLER RESULTS

    Code quality: score 2.2

    A total of 24 errors and 7 warnings were found on the 5 pages tested.

    No pages are W3C compliant. Because there are errors in the code, some web browsers may not be able to read this website correctly and it may not always display correctly.

    5 of the pages of this website were found to use presentational HTML elements and/or attributes. It is widely regarded that use of presentational HTML like <font> and <p bgcolor=”#FF0000″> should be avoided.

    Internal Links: score 1.4

    95 links have no text describing their destination. Links on a page should describe their destination for the benefit of both screen readers and search engine spiders.

    Meta Tags: score 2.0

    All pages include at least some metadata, but no pages have a description meta tag. The description meta data is important as it appears on Google’s search result pages.

    POWERMAPPER RESULTS

    These are really bad. They say: 90% pages with issues

    Most of them is for accessibility and W3C HTML/XHTML Validation.

    What I find confusing is, they tell me in which line the error is, but I’m not sure how to fix it.

    When I see a error in a line X, for example. What should I do to fix it? These “pages” are actually generated from the theme, no?

    Since some of the issues appear in pages or posts, is the problem coming from the theme itself? O_o

    The results from Powermapper are very difficult for me to post here, it’s a lot of information, and I am a bit overwhelmed ??

    What do you think?

    Do you have a need to care about this? Seriously asking.

    Please provide a link to a page on your site where we can see this. Thanks.

    I’m not sure if I need to care about this.

    But I am amazed with the amount of errors that I am getting and I’m afraid these will make difficult for the site to be loaded, or viewed correctly. Or even SEO issues because of these errors.

    This is the website, I’m still using mock content, just to see how things are working.

    What do you find of really problematic there?
