Priority 1 Issues
	Users should be able to quickly look at each link and tell where it goes.	Usability.gov 10:1
	Don't use generic link labels like "click here" or "read more" because they're hard to tell apart when users scan a page.

Priority 2 Issues
	Omitting IMG WIDTH or HEIGHT attributes means page text jumps about as images load.	Usability.gov 14:3
	This makes the page very hard to read while it's loading, and the user may click on the wrong link if it moves as it's being clicked. Add width and height attributes to the img tag matching the image dimensions. Authoring tools like Dreamweaver can automate this process.

	Use site maps for web sites that have many pages.	Usability.gov 7:10
	Site maps provide an overview of the Web site. They may display the hierarchy of the Web site, may be designed to resemble a traditional table of contents, or may be a simple index.
