Cannot recover after last error. Any further errors will be ignored.

Federico,
Great to see you my friend. I believe you are 100% correct there needs to be a lot of things inside the wrappers of the header.
As far as fixing the issues with the site throughout the 3 questions you've asked I am yet to going to weigh in on the 3rd one however if you're building a website unless you're going to hire a developer.
I strongly suggest you subscribe to a tool called team treehouse I use it, and I could not be happier.
below is a validator called unicorn that takes a look at your code
if I can make some suggestions I strongly recommend getting an HTML editor the crème de la crème is Adobe's Dreamweaver however that might be a little heavy for some people.
There are some excellent HTML editors if you Google them or if you like simply check out
or some text editors that are designed for HTML
Text Editors
Text editors are often a matter of personal preference. Try installing some other text-editors and see which one you like best. Here's a list to get you started.
- TextMate - Mac only with free trial available. This text-editor is similar to Sublime Text.
- Notepad++ Windows only and free to use. It's similar to Notepad (which is included with Windows) but has some more advanced features.
- Codekit - Mac only with free trial available. Includes support for more advanced frameworks and templating languages like Less, Sass, Stylus, Coffeescript, and more.
- Vim - This text-editor is very powerful but also difficult to learn. It's intended for advanced programmers.
I went and ran your site through Internet marketing ninjas crawl test and found some issues
here is an example of what a header when constructed correctly looks like

When you look at this and see the giant header that is what the problem is. I can help you clean up your header. I apologize that I just had some technical issues when I had recently replied. And you asked for help but there no longer stopping me from answering so.
if you look at the same URL that you posted however use the show outline and summary
you have a lot of issues stemming from the structure of your HTML.
To start out the cannot parts I have underlined and below the header or outside of the header
for instance I got the information that is pasted below here
this is your header there are certain things that belong in it
it starts with and ends with
the Apple viewport tags that you have pasted in our outside of the header
here's some information showing that those tags need to be inside of the header wrappers

Need Suggestion for Canonical Page
Hello, I am bit confused about whether to use a Canonical URL on a page or not? Actually, the project I am working on is having two pages with most similar content. The only difference between them is that only 1 paragraph of 50-60 words is different. I am not sure, whether to put a canonical URL on the another version of the page. [Note: Sorry, can't put the site URL due to some restrictions.]

Internal and Link Juice Analysis - Too Many Links Error
Howdy! I have an analysis question related to internal links/link juice. Here is the general link set up of our site: 1. All Site Pages (Including Home Page): We have drop down "mega" menus in the header of everypage linking to various sub-categories on the site. So, because of this, in our header, we have a few hundred links to various pages on our site and these show up on every page of the site. 2. Product Pages: Header pages as mentioned above, but on top of that, we list out the keywords for that particular product and each keyword is linked back to our search results pages for that particular keyword. In General Moz is telling us we are having between 200-300 links on each product page. Currently, our Search Results pages are ranking higher and showing up in search more than our actual product pages. So, based on the above info, here are some thoughts: 1. Should we ajax in the Header links so that they aren't showing up for the search engines? Or, should we ajax them in only on all pages that are not the Home Page? 2. Should we get rid of the keyword links back to the Search Results pages that are on the product pages? What effect would these changes "actually" have? Does this just improve crawling? Or are there other positive results that would come of changes like these? We have hundreds of thousands of products, so if we were to make changes like these, could we experience negative results? Thanks for your help! Craig

I'm moving my company to Australia, shutting down the US company. Google said I had to request a new Adsense account, so I did. They opened the account, I added the same ads, in the same places, and they have rejected my application. What do I do now? The other account has been open since 2004. They never said a word about this before. After two years of working on improvements, now I'm just about destroyed. I need some help, because I thought I knew what I was doing, but obviously not!

I need quality backlinks. Do they need to be similar to company website?
Our website seems to be well optimized. However I need to find more quality backlinks. I am having a hard time with this. Do backlinks have to related to the company? The reason I ask is because I can receive some links, but they do not relate to our company. BUT sometimes we have customers come to our facility and we book them a local hotel room and send them to near by restaurants. Is it ok to have local restaurants and local hotels links on our website and have them link to ours, on a page for customer visits. OR any other tips on receiving quality backlinks?
