A killer application for CSS is content repositioning, this is done by using content containers (called div) and some CSS you can reposition the content where you want it.

With the help of CSS, you can move the elements which are important from search engine’s viewpoint to the top of the HTML file. Moving your important content to the top of the html file will help search engines to find your content and index it properly.

Nice post Mars. Sounds like you are a designer yourself. It does seem that CSS is the way people are going. It means that search engines dont have to sort through code.

I don’t believe that ‘search bots’ are incapable of indexing a site that has a simple table based structure.
Sure, CSS will be cleaner, but lets ask the question of CSS-standards support in the various different browsers. Can we successfully implement CSS 2.0, or CSS2.1 specifications across all browsers? Especially the very noteworthy “CSS table model” specification.
In certain situations, a table-based structure provide a cleaner, less bulky solution to a bunch of CSS-hacks to make something as simple as equal height columns possible.

Good post about the help of CSS. It’s true that the search engines like semantic pages. It’s also a widely held notion that search engines like lean/clean code. Building a site using CSS and web standards can defiantly encourage the development of search engine friendly sites. This link http://alistapart.com/topics/code/css/ may provide css helps/resources.

Guess with the popularity that CSS is enjoying the days of simple HTML table based web design are coming to an end. CSS for sure does amazing things for a website which one could never done with plain hypertext design.

Nice read about CSS. Cascading Style Sheets has become a technology popular with web developers and SEO professionals alike. CSS creates easily readable pages, rich in content that wins a higher ranking in search results. A higher site ranking means better visibility on the web, more visitors and increased sales or number of contracts.

Exactly Asha! CSS makes our site easy modifiable. A well produced page with optimized code may give a better look and authority than a site with large sections of poorly constructed HTML.

Very nicely written indeed. CSS can provide some compelling SEO benefits, that makes your site a treat for spiders.
Another benefit is if two different sites offered similar content, but one had a better code build behind it, then the search engines might give the better coded site an edge.
