| Oct 16, 2010 at 4:30 | comment | added | JasonBirch Mod | I've never asked a question about on-site SEO (html, site structure, url patterns, semantics, linking, etc) on Stack Overflow, but I'd always assumed that I'd get smacked down for asking a question that wasn't programm-y enough. Maybe my perception of SO (somewhat pro-developer elitist) is wrong! Same goes to asking about how the order of JS/CSS in HTML page structure affects perceived page load time, etc. Although I agree that there is lots of overlap, there is real value in asking the questions in a web-centric venue rather than a programming-specific one. | |
