Hi Christian,

Most of the things you are describing have nothing to do with SEO and won't help you.

-make printable stylesheets


You can't do this and it is not needed. It doesn't affect SEO.

Quote:
-make my site W3D compliant


I think you mean W3C compliant and EverWeb sites are W3C compliant with few exceptions. These are required to make your site function properly in all browsers. This does not affect SEO.

-make return a 404 error


This blog post and video describe how to add a 404 page to your EverWeb site.

Quote:
-erase a HTML comment code


EverWeb does not add HTML comments to your site and this does not have any affect on SEO.

Quote:
-enable DNSSEC


I can't find any indication that it helps with SEO. This will be more expensive to set up. If it is something that concerns you, look into hosting with a company like http://cloudflare.com but it is not necessary.

Quote:
-add text destination description on links


I'm assuming you mean the anchor text which is just the text that is the actual link that users click to visit the link.

Just to re-iterate, none of the above have any real affect on SEO with the exception of Anchor Text.

make printable stylesheets

I assume you mean a print stylesheet.

This stylesheet is added to present a print friendly version of the web page and will be called into action when the page content is printed.

The stylesheet is easy to compile since it just changes the content width to 100%, removes unwanted elements such as the header, navigation and footer, and restyles any other elements such as hyperlink color. It could look like this...

/* reset background and text colors */
*{background:#FFFFFF !important;color:#000000 !important}
/* Remove non essentail elements */
header, .ewnavmenu, footer{display: none;}
/* Get the content to span the full width */
#shadow, #container, #content{width:100%;margin: 0;float:none}
/* Change any other elements */
a{color:#FF0000 !important}

The reset is probably not necessary as anyone who wants their pages printed will use black text (#000000) on an almost white (#FEFEFE) background although you may want to change this to pure white (#FFFFFF).

Create the stylesheet, remove the comments, save it as "print.css" and drag it into the EverWeb Assets column. Control (right) click the file to copy the relative file path, insert it into this...

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="print" href="{!-ASSETSPATH-!}External%20Files/print.css" />

.... and paste it into the site wide head code box on the Site Publishing Settings page.

-erase a HTML comment code


Comments will only be inserted if you insert third party code which contains them. Comments should be removed before inserting the code and look like this...

<!-- HTML comment -->
/* CSS comment */
// javascript comment

If you are using third party scripts, use the minified version which will have all the comments, spaces and returns removed. These are usually named like "myScript.min.js" to differentiate from the development version.
