XHTML/CSS Optimization
An effective search engine optimization campaign can generate a lot more traffic than some ridiculously expensive and time-consuming banner ad program or pay-per-click methods. We at CrystalAxis technologies recommend optimizing your web site through feather-weight file sizes, maintaining a good content-to-code ratios, using well-written relevant content and filling pages with links and text as much as possible without falling in to the search engine spider's "spammer" category.
XHTML/CSS optimization is a perfect method for search engine optimizing your web site. The benefits of using XHTM/CSS optimization include improved readability of the code for search engine spiders, light-weight web pages with better loading speeds and better presentation of your web pages. Optimizing with XHTML/CSS can be done by managing file size and content ratios, embedding images wisely and mimicking common image and script effects.
File size and content ratios – Making your code readable is the best way to optimize. Like the human eye, search engine spiders tend to ignore too much "junk test" when reading a page. By improving the structural organization of your code, you make the page easily readable for both developers and search engines.
Images – Instead of dropping an image right in your HTML, embedding it as a background via CSS makes the file size smaller and gives a more impressive presentation.
Effects - Using CSS allows you to imitate various image effects without having heavy files on your web page. One of the best benefits of using XHTML/CSS for mimicking image effects is that it provides more textual content for search engine spider's to "read".
Using standards compliant methods to create readable, content-rich, optimized web pages will make sure your web site is dominant and easily-found on the Internet.
