Why do you say that? (and please don't say you read it on w3fools)
In my own experience, w3schools is the quickest way of getting the information I want, which I guess is why it is at the top of google. I know it isn't cool to like w3schools, but then I'm not a cool programmer.
- cleaver 13y agoSometimes I just need to confirm a particular attribute. I don't think W3S is very good, but I have been on the site enough times that I know I'll be in and out with what I need in about 10 seconds.
- DanBC 13y agoLots of people complain about W3Schools. Some of those people say the Mozilla pages are a bit clunky. Seems like a nice passive income project - man pages for HTML / CSS aimed at beginners but with advanced information too. I'm surprised it hasn't already been done. Perhaps it has and I just don't know the URL.

- patmcguire 13y agoYou can't fight the SEO feedback cycle. W3 schools was linked to by some people, so it shows up on Google, so it gets linked to by more people...
- kbenson 13y agoSome people? By internet standards, w3schools is ancient, and has been linked by many people over the years. Here[1], I present you their main page from close to 14 years ago. The copyright notice says 1999-2000, and I think I first visited it in 1999, but I could be mistaken. That's a long time for links to accrue.

- zapu 13y agoThere is now the Mozilla Developer Network which provides much better information. It does not top google results, though. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/table https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/ta...
- cpncrunch 13y agoThat is MDN, which is what I was talking about. MDN is one of the sites that is filtered out by duckduckgo for some strange reason.
