Effective web design font

Postby rosyolivia » Mon Mar 08, 2010 4:30 am

When web designing its common that every web design element used has a relative importance,
there are many websites that focus on colors, design but for some reason the font is sometimes
overlooked. Every font has a different style and every style has its own way of adding it weight to
the website success.

If you understand the elements that make up good design, you'll have a Web page that works well. These elements of good design apply whether you are creating Web page, a business card, or a t-shirt and once you understand them you will have the skills to be a great designer.Fonts are the way your text looks on a Web page. And most of Web pages have large amounts of text. When ever you are thinking of design, as well as the positioning blocks of text and adjusting the size and shape of the text. These resources explain how to work with fonts on Web pages. :lol:

Hi guys

The top ten fonts for website design might change in order, but for the most part the fonts that make up this list stay the same due to their popularity. In general, the top ten list includes Arial, Frutiger, Futura, Gills Sans, Helvetica, Lucida, Optima, Palatino, Agfa Rotis, and Univers.
The reason these fonts are so popular is because they are simple and easy to read on computer screens with low resolution. As a result, most of the time fonts that are unique, wild, and distinctive are not used on web pages so as not to distract the reader from what is trying to be said and communicated through the font on the page. Since the website uses content to get the point across, it is prudent to use fonts that are easy to read. If you make it difficult for a visitor to read the content, they will more likely leave than put forth the effort. Consider the following points as well when developing your fonts for your website.
- Big Fonts
This is your web page and likely your livelihood, not a term paper or research project that has a defined style. Because of this, you can use big fonts, bold them, make them stick out and attract the reader. You can drive your point home with larger fonts and they also will be significantly easier for your visitor to read. The object of your website is to present information that is easily seen, read, and found by visitors. So, go ahead and increase the font size even in regular text that is not in a heading or title. Many of your visitors will thank you because they will not have to put on their glasses or strain to read the text. Sometimes bigger is better.

Thanks for all friends

Well, its too important that we must keep all the things in mind while designing of the website like the color scheme , pages of the website, loading time etc and the most important thing is the design, it means that the design of your website should be relevant to the content of the website and any one can get a clear idea about your website by just looking at its design and layout... ;)
