I would appreciate som feedback on my fictional product landing page. I am doing the freeCodeCamp curriculum and Product Landing Page is one of the Responsive Web Design Projects using only HTML/CSS.

I am especially interested in feedback regarding best practice, naming conventions and efficient code.


The code is also on GitHub.

\$\begingroup\$
width="1068px"
height="132px"

The width and height attributes can’t contain "px".

width="1068"
height="132"

The alt value for the logo should not contain "logo", just the company name.


<i class="fab fa-facebook-f"></i>

Don’t use the i element if you just want to display an icon via CSS. The i element has a meaning which isn’t appropriate for this (details). Use the span element instead.

<span class="fab fa-facebook-f"></span>

<h1>
  <i class="logo-icon fas fa-haykal fa-xs"></i
  >Fireworks<br />of flavors
</h1>

Don’t use the br element if you want to show a line break just because of aesthetic reasons. The br element must only be used for meaningful line breaks (details). Use a span element and CSS to add the line break.

<h1>
  <span class="logo-icon fas fa-haykal fa-xs"></span
  >Fireworks <span class="separator">of flavors</span>
</h1>

Your use of heading elements is not consistent. Your first section starts with h1, your second section starts with h2. While this is not an error, it’s a good practice to be consistent: either use h1 everywhere, or (preferably) use the heading elements of the correct rank, i.e., start with h2 in top-level sections.


<h2>Pricing</h2>
<h3 class="sub-header">Monthly subscription</h3>

Don’t use a heading element for sub-headings (details). This creates a wrong document outline. Use a p element instead.

<h2>Pricing</h2>
<p class="sub-header">Monthly subscription</p>

/mo

You can use the abbr element here.

<abbr title="per month">/mo</abbr>

<p class="footer-text">
    &copy; 2019 Fireworks all rights reserved
</p>

You can use the small element here (details).

<p class="footer-text">
  <small>&copy; 2019 Fireworks all rights reserved</small>
</p>

Both of your logo img element have the same id value. An id value can only be used once per page.

    \$\begingroup\$ Thank you for your detailed feedback! Exactly what I was looking for. Regarding heading elements, I have now wraped a h1 tag around my logo image in the header and changed all my top-level-sections to h2. I'm a bit unsure if this is the correct use of the h1 tag, but I see Facebook is doing the same so I guess it is ok. \$\endgroup\$

  • \$\begingroup\$ @Øyvindsen: I would say having the site name (whether it’s text or a logo) as h1 is ideal; many people disagree because they have the (outdated, I would say) assumption that h1 should only be used for the main content, but this would typically lead to a wrong document outline. -- You can check the document outline with validator.w3.org/nu -- there is a checkbox "outline". \$\endgroup\$

  • \$\begingroup\$ Thanks. I'm already familiar with the validator. Guess I need to remember to use it more often. Now the outline looks good. It just takes the alt value from the image as the h1 text. \$\endgroup\$
