What is the difference of HTML5 and web 2.0? What is web 2.0 and is this better for seo?
-
A little bit confused with the new stuff. The web 2.0 webpages are so much better? What changes?
-
Well I think it's correct what both SirMax and Jose Garcia Jr say, web 2.0 was an incredible change in the that way eaverybody could use the web and interact in it. Actually everybody can open a new blog for free, can write on the other blogs, can interact with friends in the social network thanks to web 2.0 social view. Before this, websites were only static paper-like advertising posters with no interaction possibilities.
I can't say if this change drove to a new graphic style or if a new graphic style helped us to change, now the web 2.0 style, made by gradients, glossy buttons, and icons as J.G Jr said is a standard.
Obviously web 2.0 style doesn't mean automatically web 2.0 intercatcion, it could be good for some tasks, less for others, it depends on what your website's made for.

While SirMax has good advice, the term 'Web 2.0' doesn't necessarily encompass sharing and collaboration. When something is referred to as 'Web 2.0' they generally mean how the webpage looks. For example, gradients, glossy buttons, and icons all are considered Web 2.0 ish.
In short, Web 2.0 is the design elements that the webpage uses. HTML 5 on the other hand is the foundation or structure of the underlying content. It establishes the meaning behind the content.
In other words, they have very little to do with each other (one is presentation, the other is structure). All Template Monster is trying to say is this 'we have modern website templates' =}

I want to buy a new template, and at template monster they are selling web 2.0 templates. Is there a difference? They say that this templates allow a more friendly interface, bigger fonts, and so on....
The web 2.0 is also an html?
-
It is apples and oranges. HTML 5 is a language that you use to create web pages. it is as you can guess from the name the 5th and latest version of HTML with a lot of additional features.
Web 2.0 is not a language, it is the concept of sharing and collaboration.
It encourages users not only consume the information, but actively participate in creating content. Blogs, twitters, wiki, one website exposing API and allowing other websites to call it, is all product of Web 2.0 concept.

URL Structure's Effect on SEO
Hello all, I have a client who currently has a very poor URL structure. As it stands, their URLs are formatted in the following manner: http://www.domain.com/category/subcategory/page In all my years of SEO, however, I have always tried to implement the following format: http://www.domain.com/category/page The web designer for this particular project has been very reluctant to change the structure for obvious reasons, but I'm convinced that by modifying the URL structure, SEO will improve. I am correct in thinking this? Likewise, if I am able to get the URL structure changed, what do I need to look out for to make sure we don't lose any traction for our keyword terms? Any and all insight/suggestions is greatly appreciated. Thanks for reading!

Just How Bad is Adobe MUSE for SEO?
Adobe's new website builder "Adobe Muse" has a reputation for creating terrible code. I want to know if anyone has experience with the software and what your opinion is on just how bad the code really is for SEO. I'm currently using "Weebly", which is a similar, but more basic website building software. My results for SEO have been going well using that software, however it's limited in terms of building an aesthetically pleasing website design. On the other hand, you can build gorgeous websites with Adobe Muse, but I don't want to use it if it's going to prevent me from ranking. What are your thoughts?

SEO and Modal Windows
Hi all, My website has a Login and Join Us option on every page in the site. Each Login and Join Us window pops up as a modal window. In other words, the user must interact with it before they are taken somewhere else (whether they close it or fill it in). It has come to my attention that this is being counted as duplicate content. Is there any way around this? It's calling duplicate content on practically the whole website. Thanks in advance!

SEO tricks for a one page site with commented html content
Hi, I am building a website that is very similar to madebysofa.com : means it is one page site with entire content loaded (however are commented in html) and by clicking on sections it modify the DOM to make specific section visible. It is very interesting from UX point of view but as far as I know, since this way most of my content is always commented and hidden from crawlers, I will loose points regarding SEO. Is there any workaround you can recommend or you think sites like madebysofa.com are doomed to loose SEO points by nature? Best regards,
