Always use CSS to format text:
Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) are preferred way to manipulate text – it is advisable to use style sheet to control representation of text on your website. Once you make change, weather it is a small or big to the style sheet and it will apply to whole website immediately. It will help you in making your life a lot easier.
Always use proper font with proper size to read:
You need to consider a lot about your target audience. Even if they are just a small group of teenage boys who are looking for new cricket bat, using a tiny font size is a never a good. It doesn't necessarily have to be a big in size, but up to a reasonable size, larger type is ok. For example, 12-pt Arial is lot better than 9-pt Aerial.
Text used in website should be in contrast with background:
The general rule of thumb is the more contrast you gave the better it will look. The perfect example of high contrast combination is Black-on-white or white-on-black. Use various colors only if you like it, but if it strabismus at the page and website text becomes invisible then there's not correct contrast. OR it should be avoided.
Format text into sizable sections:
It does not matter how good your writing is, people often avoid reading page with endless text. It is advisable that you should break text of the page in the sections and each section should have headlines to it because it will help audience to take a glimpse of the sections that really interesting to them, or you should use proper bulleted lists to change the pace of the writing little bit.
The output will be the website with the text which is more readable to user, audience will stick to your website for long to get your message, and this gives you an improved credibility to your visitors.
