Particularly for junior developers or those without web development experience. I fail to see how a 2000 word article can be offensive, or fluff for that matter. Critics rarely create.

What tf has guitar and anything mentioned on this page got to do with each other? The idea is simple. Information on this page is so basic... it's offensive. Fluff. <b>BTW</b>: 1. HTTP 503 is very important. Especially combined with Retry-After. Worth adding here for SEO friendly site-wide maintenance work. 2. Also mention the noindex, nofollow, ... METAs. And the X-Robots-Tag: for adding the METAs to non HTML content. And how they affect stuff. 3. A few words on the User-Agent, for cloaking... you know. Mention the Referer too. 4. Absolute and relative URLs to keep the site structure reliable. Like never use relative URLs unless you're PRO. ... and much more! WebDev & SEO are related.
