I believe the best methods to remain the same that it has always been, create quality content by delivering value to your visitors and keep your webapp running without maing your page hang on clients as well as presenting a clean interface, that should be cross device.

W3fools used to have more detail:

Even if w3schools have fixed all these instances since then, that all those errors were ever produced is a bad sign, especially when there were better alternatives even then.

If you keep punishing someone for past mistakes there is no reason to improve. On the other hand MDN is a mozilla resource and had good stuff from day 1 so they deserve the traffic.

> Today, W3Schools has largely resolved these issues and addressed the majority of the undersigned developers' concerns.

Seems to me like it's a decent resource nowadays.

If you can't even point out the faults you are in no position to comment on the content.
