Since most web pages are skimmed rather than being read in a
traditional, linear fashion, it makes sense to use the full tag and
attributes on every occasion.
The traditional, print-based method was to only expand the
abbreviation/acronym on first use, to save space, but this does not
apply to an attribute applied to a web page tag, which takes up zero
visible space.

        Only the first occurrence on each page is advisable
