CSS-driven Website Development  -  October 27, 2006

For many years, website development has been done using tables within tables (within more tables!) to control the layout of content on a web page. Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) have been available to web developers for a few years now, but it is only recently that they are being used as more of a standard.

Ultimately, CSS allows complete control of an entire website from a single external file; changing the layout of a whole website can be done without editing any of the individual web pages. The advantages of this are that web pages are much lighter, containing mainly just the content, saving on page-loading times and bandwidth.

From a search engine optimisation point of view, having pages that are light on coding means search engine spiders can crawl your pages more easily and find the content quicker.

Here at Just Designing, we pride ourselves on taking this CSS-driven approach to website design. For more information about the design solutions we offer, fill in our simple contact form.
