What is best to use on a site, font for each text or CSS? If CSS, the CSS that is included on the same page or the CSS that is another file, blah.css?

CSS without a doubt being called from blah.css

The least amount of work one of the spiders has to do in order to read your HTML coding the better

yep and speaking of which... don't ever use tables for your layout either. i'm working on a new redesign and just about have the front page done... www.healthygo.com/new view the source, it's about 60% or LESS coding when you dont use tables.

Same is true for nonbreaking spaces. Avoid them at all costs.

Case in point..

&nbsp is the most relevant search term in over 15 million pages listed in Google LOL

Doesn't have much to do with SE rankings.

But go CSS when you can becasue it allows you to make changes easier.

Yes it does.

The easier it is for the SE spiders to read all the HTML in any given page the better chance you have of being ranked higher than a like page with more HTML.

I know this for a fact, i have tested it out on numerous occasions.

Smaller HTML weighed pages have always been ranked 1 or 2 placements higher than similar pages with more HTML coding in them.

CSS in a different file is the way to go. As for CSS layouts, its a big more tricky.

making the transition from structuring layouts in tables to CSS/XHTML is not too tough.. the hardest task is optimizing for IE + Mozilla... IE is known as a piece of shit amongst those who structure in css/xhtml - because it interprets floats in a lot of wrong ways - and you often times you have to make up for it by adding extra coding / hacks...

but it's not bad at all, and a lot better once you get the hang of it.
