So you know you do have to tell him to turn on the content  delivery network with zippy kid and if your site is not performing let them know they will tweak it

Just like Oleg & Paul I agree 100% your site may have and it will probably benefit from having both a site map which is a nice feature in HTML format and one in XML format as they are not used for the same purpose by Google nor by individuals so you may safely create a regular webpage in HTML and call it whatever you like if it ends in.XML it is not a forward facing webpage it has a separate use and that uses to tell Google's crawler where you would like it to go now keep in mind Google does not always listen to what we want but site maps can be helpful.

I hope this was of help to you

just wanted to give you one more thing that I think would help http://www.w3schools.com/html5/att_meta_charset.asp

I believe you should clean up your encoding and that it will not be a big deal.

Sincerely,

Tom

I thought this may help as well because you do have to clean up your source code

The online quoted-printable encoder tool first encodes the input text in either UTF-8 or ISO-8859-1. The characters are then output according to this schema:

| Character | Result | Comment |
| "=" (0x3D) | =3D | Special handling of the equal sign |
| " " (0x20) to "~" (0x7E) | Unmodified | Printable ASCII (7 bits) |
| Any other | =XX | Hexadecimal char code |

Since quoted-printable does not in itself specify the text character encoding, it is important to specify this correctly when used. The online quoted-printable decoder tool attempts to auto-detect the text encoding.

See the Wikipedia article on quoted-printable for more info.

I would use a tool similar to this http://www.percederberg.net/tools/text_converter.html

as you can see your links for your gif photos are encoded "data:image/gif;base64"

please give it a try and tell me if that helps?

Sincerely,

Thomas

what you need to do is go into your site and cleanup the links that have been converted and messed up because of the change. Once you clean them you will have no problem this is what your links look like

data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAP///////yH+A1BTQQAsAAAAAAEAAQAAAgJEAQA7

utf-8 is definitely the right coding it's very good you just have to go in and clean it up looking your source code

I hope I've been of help to you.

Did you happened to possibly write it using Microsoft Word and paste content in? Or are you speaking about a website that you converted from another encoding to Unicode 8?

Thomas
