HTML Codes
Sometimes a website will not work because of simple HTML codes are missing. Here are a few tips that will fix a problem fast that might otherwise take hours to figure out.
The email is not working although everything regarding the email has been set up on the host end. Simply go into the HTML search codes in your HTML editor and look in the codes where you see the codes for the email. The email HTML codes should look like the following example to work right:
<a href="mailto:service@smwebtechservices.com">Contact Us</a>
So we can no just simply put service@smwebtechservices.com because it will not work and you will get the message "page not found."
PageRank Recovery
We all come across the message "Error 404" regularly while online. It has nothing to do with computer errors but many will try to sell you computer repair programs supposedly to fix it. What is going on? This error message means the link is broken because the page has changed name, site structure has changed, or been taken down so the link needs to be fixed by the site's owner or webmaster.
However, it can be a huge task to find broken links on a website. Luckily there are great tools available such as the PageRank Recovery Tool that make it easier. Once you find the broken links go to the Control Panel of the host for your website and look for the URL Redirect. Then place the broken link in the "Redirect this URL" area and "To this URL" is were you enter the URL link to where you want the site to go to. When you are done remember to save it.

HTML TAGS
H1 - Level 1 HeadingH1 code looks like this <h1> </h1>. It is the most important header in the document and often has the title in it. It really should be rendered more prominently than any other header. Often it seems to have the same content as the Title tag, but that may not necesarily be so. Don't leave it blank because search engine spiders seem to give words appearing within the headers more importance. Headers may affect font size, align attributes and outline. Headers should be used in hirerarchical order so always start with H1 then H2. etc.,
H2 - Level 2 Heading
H2 code looks like this <h2><h2>. The level 2 heading is the second most important header in a document. Don't leave it blank.
H3 - Level 3 Heading
H3 code looks like this <h3><h3>. The level 3 heading is the third most important header in a doucment. It is often used to mark up sections within a chaper in a document. Don't leave it blank.

important header in a document. It is often used to mark up subsections within a document.
