Using CSS to Minimize Page Load Time - Good SEO!
Using an external style sheet will keep many of your design elements on a single common page. This prevents pages from looking jagged due to slightly different layout specifications between one page and the next. In addition, keeping layout code separate from content will decrease page load time.
When users navigate from one page to another they will not need to reload the design elements of the page again since the style sheet will already be in their cache. Most typical web users expect pages to download within 8-10 seconds at the max. The longer a person waits for a page to download, the more likely they are to have their stream of thought interrupted.
