Any Google SEO Ranking Issues with Web Designer 11 Pro's code

Anyone experience and Page Rank problems using the code Web Designer 11 Pro generates?
Any Load time Issues?
I need to make sure my Local Business Pages #1 page rank, does not slip if I switch to Xara Web Designer 11 Pro.
Appreciate any input!

Xara claim their generated HTML is 100% W3C compliant.
Of course they can't vouch for any third party code introduced via widgets/placeholders that are not created by Xara.

Google looks for mobile variants of sites and seems to value those that do over those which don't.

I'd suggest best SEO practices are up to the designer/builder.

As Steve says your ranking will depend on the designer/builder rather than the software, if it was just the software then the whole seo industry would not need to exist. One thing you will have to be aware of is that if you are duplicating your sites content and site structure exactly in webdesigner v11 then you will have to let google know the new page urls, webdesigner page urls end with htm rather than .html so you would have to use google webmaster tools to remove the old urls, google would probably get around to crawling the new urls and ignoring the old urls in time but this way would speed things up.

webdesigner page urls [by default] end with htm rather than .html

Change the Home Page Name (Website Properties > Page > Page Filename) from index to index.html and then every page will automatically export with the .html extension.
