Are you wondering how you can easily improve your web presence?

If you are like many other businesses and organizations, you don't know where to begin. After all, building a solid web presence isn't your cup of tea, and it doesn't need to be. Let us do the dirty work for you.

At TMG, we use valid XHTML 1.0 Strict/CSS. We spend time making sure that your pages validate to W3C standards. Why?

You might ask the question: My site looks right and works fine - isn't that enough?

The answer to this one is that markup languages are no more than data formats. So a website doesn't look like anything at all! It only takes on a visual appearance when it is presented by your browser.

In practice, different browsers can and do display the same page very differently. This is deliberate, and doesn't imply any kind of browser bug. A term sometimes used for this is WYSINWOG - What You See Is Not What Others Get (unless by coincidence). It is indeed one of the principal strengths of the web, that (for example) a visually impaired user can select very large print or text-to-speech without a publisher having to go to the trouble and expense of preparing a separate edition.

It is perhaps unfortunate that the best-known browsers - Netscape Navigator and MS Internet Explorer on Windows - are visually very similar indeed in their presentation of many documents, differing only in trivial details like margins and spacings. The "same" browser on a Mac or Unix/Linux display will often look far more different.

By validating our code for your website we ensure a pleasurable web experience for the maximum number of your users as possible.
