10 Brilliant Web Fonts You Should Try On Your Site

Why is the web font you choose so important for your web pages? Great question!

Otherwise known as typography, the web fonts we choose for our websites can have a massive impact on things like:

• Mood
• Readability
• Perceived article length
• User Experience (UX)

The typography you choose for your website plays a big role in the first impression visitors get when they come to your site. It’s part of the whole user experience you provide. But…

Finding the perfect font isn’t always easy. We want to help you provide your site visitors with an awesome user experience. That’s why we compiled a top 10 list of web fonts developed by reputable type designers, all of which are available for free via Google Fonts.

Can you figure out the typography we use on Z Coast? Take a guess in the comments section, it’ll be fun.

Anyway, on to the good stuff!

*Note: We’re intentionally not including single-weight fonts because their usefulness is limited in good, real-world design.

It’s cool, you can thank us later.
