    Argument for using them is just the same for other arguments for writing best practices code. First of all, just from a developer's point of view it results in cleaner markup and a better structured document. No more endless classes and ids for every last page element.

    As for why use header and not some imaginary tag...Google and other web apps will be using these standard HTML5 tags for content indexing and other operations. So within the next couple years it will become standard to use this markup in order to aid data accessibility and SEO.

    • this isnt true - or will make negligible difference - its all about content and inbound linksfadein11
