Most of the time you or your

make sure that the code is clean

Blog Post Writing Solution
So rather than a .doc file ask
your writer to provide you a .html
file
2- Why to clean
Your HTML before posting
Your CMS HTML
Whatever CMS you use it’s usually the
same idea.
Styling (fonts, size, colours) are
specified into your .css files. So if you
add another style into your page, it will
be read as the main style and will not
respect your template design.
Make it clean because
1. Looks fine on your blog
2. Google prefers clean codes
3. Faster loading time
4. You validate it and you’re
sure of it
