What Are Web Standards And Why You Need To
Follow Them?
When you plan to build a brand new website, you
prepare a checklist to ensure its
quality. Why? Because you want to make sure
that everything your website contains, be it
content, features, or graphics, happens to be
useful and impactful.

But do you even care for web standards? Or, is
it the part of your web design process? Maybe or
maybe not you would be used to it, but let me
tell you it plays a key role in making your
website easily accessible for users. In laymans
terms, you can understand web standards as a set
of formal specifications that are there to be
adopted by website administrators to make their
site more approachable. Needless to say, not
abiding by the set web standards is definitely
going to limit the access of your site on
different platforms. To make it easy to digest
for you, I have explained what web standards
actually are in the next section of this
content. Before that, I would like to make you
aware of the top web design Los A ngeles company

what are web standards. What Are Web Standards?

This can be defined as the protocols and
technologies created to use the web to its
maximum potential by developing a standardized
system of rules and guidelines. Now, for the web
to reach its maximum potential, it is necessary
that widely popular web technologies be
compatible with each other and any software and
hardware can access the web to work
collaboratively. This objective is particularly
referred to as Web interoperability by W3C
(World Wide Web Consortium). Now you must be
curious to know what W3C is and how it is
correlated with web standards. Of course, I
will explain that to you in a bit but prior to
W3Cs description, I would like to share
important details about the high-rated web design
company in Los Angeles - SFWP Experts. If you
are running a website or planning to launch one
you are definitely going to need design
professionals to ensure it's up to international
quality standard. And there are no two ways

all about - What is W3C? The W3C or World Wide
Web Consortium is simply an international
community occupied with members of the
organization, staff, and the general public who
are tasked to build web standards. The group at
W3C is
4
led by the inventor of the web Tim Berners-Lee
and CEO Jeffrey Jaffe to complete a mission of
using the web to its full potential. Who
Participates In the Web Standards Development At
W3C? Over 400 organizations across the world
including big hardware and software companies,
research centers, universities, and all who are
members of W3C participate in web standards
creation. In addition to this figure, the W3C
team itself, some chief experts, and any random
user of the web who wants to share his thoughts
are also made part of the discussion. Are you
wondering about the outcomes? Well, they have
successfully developed 110 technologies since
1996. What Is The Objective of Web
Standards? The whole and sole purpose of making
web standards is to create an easy to use and
accessible website that delivers a pleasant user
experience everywhere. Whats nice about the
developed technologies is that they are open,
free to use, and focused on avoiding the
fragmentation of the web as well as enhancing
the overall infrastructure. The end goal is to
make the web a place where information can be
organized in the best possible manner. Just in

• Now the question arises -
• Why Do You Need To Adopt Web Standards?
• Have you ever visited a website where content is
  not displayed correctly?
• Do you use multiple browsers like Mozilla
  Firefox, Safari, or Opera and see that the
  elements of the site don't render well?
• Do you have issues with the vision still cant
  change the font size because the pages don't
  look good?
• If you have ever experienced these things while
  browsing the internet you know how annoying it
  feels. Now imagine how would you feel if you
  visit your own website only? Does it offer a
  great viewing experience or it just doesnt look
  favorable?
• To be frank, if you are not happy with your
  website experience yourself, congrats you have
  just lost a potential client who may not visit
  your website again. And do you know whats the
  worst part? Being a visitor to your site you
  have not even explored the services offered by
  your site due to bad UX.

to list out the elements web standards have been
set for. Web Standards For Different Elements of
Sites 1. Programming Languages Poorly written
codes can cause your site to run into problems as
far as the performance factor goes. So, this was
the first thing to be taken into consideration
and dealt with at the earliest. Since
programming languages more so, HTML, CSS, and
JavaScript are the foundation of the web, some
strict standards have been set for it addressing
how they are written and when they are used. In
addition, as different variants of these
languages are included in the web dictionary like
HTML5 and CSS3, strict guidelines are created
for them either.

• The good thing about coming up with such
  standards is that it makes it possible for
  designers and developers to code with the same
  approach and for every browser or software to
  nicely perceive them.

• Graphics
• This is an important element for web designers on
  this list for which strict standards have been
  made as well. However, its not as strict as some
  of the best practices you might come across on
  the web for using graphics.
• Say for an example, W3C recommends the following
  for its use
• PNG format for photos
• SVG for visualizing data
• CSS for improving HTML
• Canvas API for designing gradients, shapes, and
  other effects.
• WebCGM for your vector graphics
• If you want your website to run smoothly and
  efficiently, its necessary to bring these
  recommendations into effect as quickly as you
  can.
• Mobile Friendliness

• With the spread of smartphones across the globe
  and extreme variation in the types of available
  devices, its become crucial to have a set of
  standards for mobile sites as well. In connection
  to this, head bodies havent just standardized
  the responsive web design, they have also
  outlined the best practices webmasters can follow
  to create mobile-optimized websites.
• Here, you can take a look at an example of the
  mobile web standards W3C have created
• Whats interesting to know is that guidelines
  arent just given for design or tools but also
  site security, performance, and processing
  payments.
• If you are thinking that non-compliance with your
  site with mobile phones is resulting in low
  traffic, its time to improve on the design. Have

• Web Architecture

  information in the backend, so standards have
  been brought into effect for things like
• URIs and URLs
• XML
• HTTP and HTTPS

• Character sets
• Encoding
• By using standards the way we have labeled and
  identified different parts of the web, it can
  become more user-friendly for people worldwide.
• 5. Accessibility
• The WAI or Web Accessibility Initiative is part
  of the standardized body W3C (World Wide Web
  Consortium), you remember well.
• Unlike other web standards mentioned in this
  post, standardizing accessibility is a different
  league altogether. As you can see in the image
  above, its not just about web designers and
  developers but everyone who contributes to
  website development, be it writer, tester,
  project manager, and many others.
• By having a look at the screenshot above, you
  would have comprehended that there is a lot to
  have command on when it comes to accessibility
  standards. Let me be blunt here - if you are
  building a website that aims to be user-focused,
  then every one of these standards should be
  incorporated in your workflow.

repairing and maintenance, social media
marketing, digital marketing, SEO, PPC and
others like these. The Endnote On Web
Standards Now that you know the importance of
web standards its time to modify your site
settings based on the same. As far as users go,
one of the biggest benefits they get with web
standards maintenance is being able to use the
site in an expected way. By this, you should not
make a concept that web standards will prevent
you from showing creativity as far as your
designing pattern is concerned. Have in mind
that the impact will be completely different
since it emphasizes how your site functions and
how your visitors can interact with it. And just
so you know thats done to make sure these
elements are consistent with the rest of the web.
The benefit? Users will leverage a more inviting
environment that has no room for struggle and
confusion while using the site. As far as the
web standards topic is concerned, I think thats
been made clear by now. And if you have a
feeling about your site that there is a big
elephant in the room, we would love to talk about
it. Our profession involves building, modifying,
repairing, and maintaining websites that are up
