Widget - what to do and what not

Question

I would like to create an html / js widget that people can add to their blogs, sites, etc.

I have never done widgets before, so I would like to hear what needs to be done and what is not. For example, how do I make a style? Inline, custom css file or best practice? I believe that I cannot use the head and body in myself. What about h1, h2, etc.? Do they hang a website with widgets or can I use them?

If you have any good tips, I would love to hear them.

Thank.
