Mailto Email addresses should not appear on any pages because spammers harvest email addresses from web pages. Some people use various methods for obscure the email address from "robots" while maintaining there readability to humans. I opt for "Contact" forms whenever possible, who knows what day someone builds a better robot that can read your obscured email address. Orphaned pages Orphaned pages are pages that do not contain any links back to it's parent or to the rest of the site. Page titles Every page should have a unique and sensible title. This is not only useful to humans it is better for search engines placements and on-line directories. The title should be worded so as to optimize how it displays in the task bar when the browser window is minimized. Broken Links Broken links are unprofessional, like having a coffee stain on the chair you put out for customers.
