When I use text in html I like to indent, here's what I use:

<font color="#ffffff">. . . .</font>

right before the beginning of my paragraph.

The font color # is whatever the background color is.

Is there an easier way?

Two easier ways:

Firstly, you could use non-breaking spaces as a substitute tab:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;My first line of text

would give you a four space indent.

Secondly, if you're prepared to give up the use of font tags and embrace cascading style sheets, try posting your question in the CSS forum. They're a nice bunch, and they'll be able to help you style <p> tags to automatically indent at the start of new paragraphs.
