Three HTML Tags in One Page
So I have a regular PHP page which includes the header, body, and the footer.
So
<?php include('header.html');
?>
So header.html has <html>... content </html>
Same with Footer.html
and the index.php has one <html>Tag too.</html>
So is this bad for SEO or something els开发者_开发技巧e?
How to fix it?
Thanks.
Search engines will see exactly what the browser sees. So they know as much about your includes as the user: Nothing.
However, according your question your HTML code is horribly invalid as it seems to look like that:
<html>header stuff</html>
<html>page stuff</html>
<html>footer stuff</html>
Your templates should be like that:
header:
<html><head>...</head><body>some common content stuff for all pages
content:
some stuff for your body
footer:
some common content stuff for all pages</body></html>
It's bad for everything, not just SEO, because its plain wrong HTML.
You fix it by removing the invalid elements (<html>
tags) from the includes.
Check the resulting page with a validator to find more such errors: http://validator.w3.org
Well, it is invalid HTML. So I wouldn't be surprised if you are penalised in search results because of this.
How to fix? Just get rid of the <html>
tags that aren't needed...? You only need one opening and one closing <html>
tag on a HTML document.
