Need some help on an SEO research

Hi SEO experts,

I am a college student and I want to do a similar research to..

http://www.thegooglecache.com/white-hat-seo/w3c-html-validation-and-search-engine-optimization/

but I'm going to study about seo and web design (the graphical part including the page structure e.g.
header tags, titles etc)

I chose SEO and web design since I am a web designer and I am interested in SEO.
However I need some help. I need an SEO expert point of view to answer these basic questions:

1. What do I get from this study?
2. What's the significance of this study?
3. How can this study help webmasters and online marketers?

Any opinions / thoughts would be highly appreciated.

Thanks
T

 

This basically proves that a site doesn't need to be W3C complient to rank well in search engines.

 

Yes the link in the OP proved that a site doesn't need to be W3C compliant, at least in Google. But my research is not about that. My research is about the significance of a friendly web design to SE rankings.

 

I agree with this..
SEO help web developers to create a site completely optimized according to search engines which help the site to get organic visiters

 

Hi there, I'm not sure I understand what you are talking about..

 

hello i think you want seo techniques so you search google seo keyword than you can see more site result...

 

the best is Google SEO Guide

 

Wow thanks for that insight... lol .. Most people on DP dont even understand what posts mean!

 

tsoft i think you have a good idea -- it will help other webmasters & designers learn more about SEO and how their work coincides with it. I've encountered way too many designers and programmers that never learned SEO and continue to create unfriendly websites to the search engines
