    I'm just about done creating my website and am making a few SEO related changes. I was reading a WordPress document about SEO which said I need to make sure my site validates. (http://codex.wordpress.org/Search_Engine_Optimization_for_WordPress) The article includes a link to an article about 'Validating a Website' (http://codex.wordpress.org/Validating_a_Website).

    This article suggested running several validation tests. So, I ran the W3C HTML Validation test, which told me I have 87 Errors, 43 warning(s) (http://validator.w3.org). The W3C CSS Validator told me I have 26 Errors, 110 Warnings (http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/).

    My site is http://homespecialistsinc.com/. I received similar results, although not identical on the other pages on my site.

    I don't know what to do about this. How will these errors will affect my site? Also, I don't know how I would go about making the suggested changes. Do these changes need to be made to the Local Business Pro Theme? You must have seen these issues before, so I hope you can help me with this.

    Thanks in advance :)

    Hello,

    We are working on our theme and will try to release next updated version with zero error as soon as possible.

    Tried running the validator on Google.com - 23 errors.
    On Amazon.com - 400 Errors, 149 warning(s)
    Nbcnews.com - 141 Errors, 31 warning(s)
    Nytimes.com - 362 Errors, 35 warning(s)
    Wordpress.com - 11 Errors, 4 warning(s)
    Microsoft.com - 519 Errors, 483 warning(s)

    Don't worry about it too much.
