61 Been there - not done it

After reading the article I thought that it is time to put it to the test. I proposed to my marketing team to implement across Europe and see what results we get. Will provide feedback on rankings in 1 months time.

62 OK, but...

In general terms, I’d say that the article is right, but I think that any designer hoping that his/her rankings will get a boost only because of the code/content ratio is in for some nasty surprises. It’s really one of the ranking factors, but is not by far one of the most importants.

And, of course, it’s not necessary for a web to be in XHTML+CSS to achieve that ratio, old HTML+CSS will do fine, but I agree, it’s good that these good practices gets rooted in he XHTML way of coding.

You can get a good placement without using a h1, but images has nothing to do with your placement ;)

65 Bots and valid markup

Googlebot happens to love well marked-up websites + Googlebot loves a good code to content ratio.

XHTML / CSS offers you both.

66 Code/Content Ratio

I honestly think that the amount of code does not matter as long as the site is quick loading, and has at least some amount of content to be indexed (or sufficient link popularity to not need to worry about on the page factors.)
