With Regards to using CSS
A little tip I have been told, When you use "strong" on your website, this helps with search engines
For example
My Site, ClubFeet.net, I make important words strong
Not for them to stand out on the website, its for googlebot to see its important, and helps with ratings
This wont work if you use css to make things bold

Do you then leave the bold on the page, or do you add something like this: [code]strong {
font-weight: normal;
}[/code]?

Heh, if google treats that as a more important word and ignores the CSS downgrading it, then theres a small loophole to emphasise your important words. Nice. :)

Yeah, except that the <strong> tag is deprecated in XHTML 1.1 and therefor causing a validation error.

me, For example, I am writing a site about php
I would have someting like

[code]
This site is about <strong>PHP</strong>
[/code]

But for people reading this, be careful not to over do it, as you then get downgrounded on the points

But I must be doing something right
Number one result on google
pr of 3 on a site not running yet
