Thanks for sharing that. Most of the principles can be seen as good practice that matches what sites should do. I am trying to start a website and I do not know where to start exactly. All I can find are suggestions and tutorials for people who already have started one or have an existing webpage already. I read your webpage and I am quite impressed since it is concise and clear. No extra fancy stuff most people don't have use for.
