No you put a common when you are using by as a conjunction. You usually use a comma before for, and, nor, but, or, yet, or so.

Yes, typically a colon is used after "by" to introduce a list or an explanation. For example: "Please bring the following items to the meeting: pen, notebook, and water bottle."

Do you put a colon after including?

A colon placed after the word including is not correct; this is because a colon should follow only independent clauses, which cannot end with that particular word. In other words, if you can correctly write a period in place of the colon, the colon's use is correct.

How many spaces do you put after a colon?

I was taught it was two. A good way to remember this is by counting the dots on it. The colon has two so it has two spaces. A semi colon has only one dot, and it has only one space after it. But this only applies when the name of the punctuation has the word "colon" in it, as when you are counting the dots in a period, you only see one, but after a period, you usually put two spaces unless you are using a wesite address or something of that sort.
