When you’re choosing fonts for your website, stick to google fonts. They’re free, they work well on all devices, and there are more than enough to find a combo to create the look you are going for.
Let’s start with your paragraph font
The only thing you need to worry about is that it’s clear and easy to read. Choose a sans serif font. Here are my 3 go-to choices:
Montserrat – total classic, you can’t go wrong with this font
Poppins – simple, unadorned, modern
Nunito – slightly more feminine, but still sans serif
Heading fonts
These are the fonts that will convey your style, so choose one that goes with the look you want to project:
Belleza – sophisticated and stylish
Playfair Display – classic serif font
Calistoga – fun boho vibe
Oswald – modern and minimal
Script fonts
Save these for key words or phrases, like ‘welcome’… I like to use script fonts in places on my site where I’m interjecting a word or phrase, like I’m speaking directly to my reader. Admittedly, google doesn’t have the prettiest script fonts, but here are 2 that work:
Dancing Script – one of the easiest-to-read script fonts
La Belle Aurore – a more hand-written look, but still readable
