We Hand Code HTML

Gallagher Website Design hand codes all HTML, CSS and PHP. Why? We've learned that coding by hand has many advantages.

Advantages of Hand Coding

One of the advantages is it's more likly to be viewable in many Internet browsers. Many website editor programs code HTML, CSS and other lanuages which does not display in all Internet browsers, such as Internet Explorer, Firefox and Sarfari. The only true way to know that the site views correctly in these browsers is testing it in those browsers and make the nessary changes by hand code. So one must be able to hand code in order to make sure the site displays correctly in all major Internet browsers. That's why we simple start with hand coding which makes it more likely that our sites will display right.

Another advantage is the reduction of code bloat. Code bloat is when the code written has extra unnessary code or spacing which cause the web page to load slower becuase the code takes up extra unnessary space.

Lastly, another advantage to hand coding is speed. Now many people may think a website editor might be faster but if one truly knows the programming launage typeing straight code will be much faster then having to click on several places around a program to produce the same result.
