bulletValues:

Quality
A quality website requires attention to detail. Reducing file size whenever possible without disrupting the original concept or design can be done through optimization of web graphics or using CSS to quicken load times. Details like this are important because getting content to your audience without delay is essential.

Web Standards
Web Standards is about making the same information available to everyone. Users shouldn't have to cope with un-friendly browser issues to find the content they want. That's why it's important to make sure websites are cross-browser compatible.

Accessibility
Standards allow people with disabilities easier retrieval of information on the web. Standards in HTML help information to be read correctly for people that use voice browsers or are visually impaired and want to increase the page size.
