Text editors are good to improve your html seo updates but what if your design gets massed up afterwards. If you dont want that happen get familiar with website development tools such as fireworks or dreamweaver or anything that would prevent your web site look like it has missing css file or didnt load completely remember seo is only succesfull if its sustainable. You would not want people to leave after 5 seconds of glance on your web page and never come back.
