Search, Color Styles Layouts successful color combinations?
I am afraid there are more of aesthetic considerations rather than from a technical (CSS) perspective.
In my personal opinion, you may find the following ideas helpful to your CSS:
- Image Sprites
- CSS grid system (for instance 960 grid system)
- CSS3
To be frank, there are millions of tricks and hacks in CSS, so anwser to your question is doomed to be subjective.

Michael Mao´s comment is very helpfull. My favorite "Trick" is to apply overflow: auto; to the parent element of when using float on it´s children elements.

You are not asking for CSS "tricks". CSS is only the tool used to create these effects.
What you are really asking for is design advice; and design advice is so generic (every website has different goals / audience) that the possible answers are practically infinite.
I suggest analyzing some of your favorite and least favorite websites that are similar in nature to the one you want to build, and then take inspiration (or take caution) from the designs of those websites.
