Website Coding - Summer 2022

What is the site's URL? Why is it your favorite?: The website that I chose was The Wall Street Journal because of way that the page is organized. I find the layout of news sites to be interesting, because they effectively manage to add a lot of content to the page without sacrificing navigability.
Does the site's home page validate?: The website does not validate according to the W3C's web specification.
Find any other page on the site. Does the second page validate?: The "Economy" subpage also does not validate.
Document how many validation errors and/or warnings may exist on each of the two pages you validate.: The main website had a whopping 229 errors, and the economic subpage had 176 errors.
How would you rate the site's design, on a scale of 1(horrible) to 10 (fantastic)? Why?: I would give it an 10/10 for design. The content of interest is clearly visible and the website is easy to navigate.
How would you rate the site's usability on a scale of 1 (horrible) to 10 (fantastic)? Why?: I would give it a 8/10 for usability. Although the website is easy to navigate, it has a lot of advertisements, which distract from the content considerably.
Does the site meet its purpose?: The side meets its purpose as a news site.
