I would think that the best evidence is that which one is likely to see only coming from genuinely married couples. For example, PPs discuss "face time," or time spent together. Couples spend time together, and couples are presumably more likely to go through the hassle and expense of traveling to visit one another when they live apart than are random people. (Evidence: time spent together, communication, joint travel.) Couples in a bona fide marriage are also presumably more likely to trust the other person with things like liability and finances than are random people. (Evidence: joint lease, joint property, joint accounts, joint insurance, naming the other as beneficiary, wills.)

This thread includes a number of suggestions of items that might be used as evidence of a bona fide relationship: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/284203-evidences-of-bona-fide-marriage-relationship/

At the bottom is a huge list of evidence you can send in. The best evidence, as stated by RyanH, is time spent together if you have been unable to co-mingle finances etc...
