Web Standards
All new web designs I produce adhere to Web Standards, with full separation of presentation - CSS from structure - XHTML. I create Valid XHTML and CSS unless the development environment precludes this.
Such designs are easier to manage, maintain and re-design. The pages are faster to download and cheaper to host, and appear higher in search engine rankings. They are also more compatible with both existing and upcoming browsers and technologies.
