Good typography can make or break your site. That’s why it’s important to always be on the lookout for clean, awesome fonts. Choosing a headline font is one of the most important font choices you will make. When most people read a website, they skim the page to find the information they are looking for. Headlines are the first thing they will check.
You need to make sure that headline stands out just the right amount, is easy to read and understand, and matches the look and feel of your business.
