I'm marking up a site with a company name/logo/brand across the top of
every page (and in every title tag) and a secondary title on every page
(and also in the title tag) such as:
company: about us
company: contact us
etc.
The company logo/brand requires a special font etc, and needs to be
displayed as an image. Of the following two options, what is the best
way to mark this up for usability, accessibilty, and search engine
optimization? And why?
1. embed company name/logo/brand graphic irectly into HTML with alt
attribute, and make the secondary header (for example "about us") an H1.
2. make the company name the H1 on every page, use an image replacement
technique to show the graphic instead of the text, and make "about us"
etc the H2
Thanks,
Erika
