Tips About Using Fonts Wisely

Fonts are a wonderful tool for supporting a website's distinct tone and style, and they need to be used wisely. Here are some tips for choosing your site fonts.

Tips on using different fonts

Use two to three fonts on a single website.

Too many fonts can be distracting and unattractive. Use a single font for paragraphs and general texts; use no more than two fonts for titles.

Choose san serif fonts for a more relaxed look.

Sans serif fonts don’t have the little feet on the ends of the letters. They tend to look more modern and are easier to read on titles, buttons, and short texts.

Choose serif fonts for a more serious look.

Serif fonts have little feet attached to the ends of the letters. They tend to look more traditional and formal.

Use bold, fun fonts for titles and short texts.

This is the place for using eccentric fonts as they draw attention to the text.

Make sure fonts are easy to read.

For paragraphs, a good font size is 15 to 18px. For titles, go for something bigger (40 to 100px).
