The video that is shown in the home page of the thesis theme is a sales pitch for the theme. In that video the co-creator of the Thesis theme – author of Copyblogger says how other wordpress themes sacrifice clean code in the name of good looks. He says we need valid code in order to rank well in the search engines.
I am a regular reader of Copyblogger. I was a member of his TeachingSells membership website. I have a great deal fo respect for him. But that statement by him disappointed me. Why? Because its wrong and outright misleading.
Brian has a lot of authority and respect among bloggers. It seemed like such a blatant misuse of his authority. Its almost as if he is reading the script some web designer gave him.
