I have a simple question and I did a search but could not find an answer. I create a lot, actually most of my websites using CSS. When I first started creating websites and used tables it seemed like more of my pages were being indexed by Google. It took longer back then but they were indexed none-the-less.
Now that I'm using more pure CSS for my sites, they don't seem to be getting indexed as much or ranked as high as the pages I created the old fashioned way with tables.
So the question I have is; How much does CSS actually affect my SEO and how should I develop the site if so. Should I embed the CSS into the page, create the styles in-line, or link a stylesheet? I create header tags in CSS because html header tags are as controllable as Britney Spear's attitude.
I REALLY look forward to becoming a member and getting a lot of valuable information from this forum. I'm glad I found it!
P.S. I finally got a site #1 in the natural listings for a very competitive industry and it even comes up above a site with that domain name being the actual search term.
