One of the important aspects in web design is font installation. Let’s look at ways to install fonts so that your users get the best experience.
Once you have a good sense of which fonts are the best to use, you have to come up with a killer combination.
Here are some rules to live by when pairing fonts:
You’re going to need a font for your header text that looks great in a bigger size and does a good job of grabbing attention. And you’re going to need a font for your body text that’s both legible and readable.
Start by selecting these two and only add another if you absolutely need to.
Your font pairing must have balance.
First things first, they have to complement one another. This means that, even if they look dissimilar, they present a united front to visitors and readers.
A good way to do this is to pair a serif with a sans-serif font, though it’s not the only way to achieve harmony in your typography.
Another thing you can do is use a header or display font with a ton of personality and then balance it out with neutrally designed body text.
Just make sure the styles don’t conflict. A rugged gothic serif font, for instance, wouldn’t work well with an uber-feminine cursive font.
There’s nothing wrong with using font pairs that come from the same font family so long as the styles don’t look too similar. They can blend well, but they shouldn’t be hard to distinguish from one another.
You’ll find some neat pairing options within superfamilies that have a couple of dozen different styles (at least) to play with. Thin vs. thick. Condensed vs. extended. Serif vs. sans serif.
It’s also important to consider how different sizes and different weights create contrast between styles within the same family. That may be enough to create an attractive pair of fonts.
One of the reasons why we need font pairs in the first place is to establish a hierarchy on web pages. But increasing your font’s size by 10 pixels isn’t necessarily going to establish hierarchy.
That’s why we need different fonts to play different roles.
For instance, you might want to use a tall, condensed style of a sans-serif font to give your header a quick and powerful punch. Your body text could then use a serif with rounder and more spacious characters that give your readers some room to breathe as they soak up the message.
The power of font combinations can really make or break your brand visually. A great type pairing alone can:
Choose professional and readable font pairings for a resume. A classic combination is Arial (sans-serif) for headings and Calibri (sans-serif) for body text. Garamond (serif) paired with Arial or Helvetica can convey a traditional yet modern look.
Select professional and readable font pairings for a business website. Common combinations include Roboto (sans-serif) for headings with Open Sans (sans-serif) for body text or Lato (sans-serif) paired with Georgia (serif) for a balanced look.
Choose font pairings for a personal website that reflect your style. Examples include Playfair Display (serif) with Lato (sans-serif) for an elegant look or Oswald (sans-serif) paired with Source Sans Pro (sans-serif) for a modern feel.
Opt for font pairings that convey professionalism and readability for a portfolio. Consider classic combinations like Montserrat (sans-serif) with Merriweather (serif) for a contemporary look or Raleway (sans-serif) paired with Roboto (sans-serif) for simplicity.
Meet Georgia, a Serif web-safe font that is both elegant and serious, like a tux. It does well accompanied by the Avenir family, a classic sans serif font that boasts easy readability and matches Georgia’s graceful simplicity.
Good for: Business, portfolios, CVs, and publications.
Oswald Medium communicates strength with its bold weight and clean lines. With a title font that strong, balance your page out with Roboto Bold. The neo-grotesque sans serif typeface was developed by Google as the system font for its mobile operating system, Android, to be “modern and approachable.”
Good for: Business, fitness, and technology.
Reklame Script belongs to a family of fonts that are influenced by the hand lettering of 1940s and 1950s printed advertisements. This inspiration is reflected in the font’s friendly warmth, good for communicating your fun and personal approach. The clean and geometric look of Poppins SemiBold and Poppins Extra Light make these fonts your go-to for your subtitles and paragraph text, respectively.
Good for: Family and kids-oriented businesses, online stores, DIY, and blogs.

The vintage brush script of Belinda can be used to evoke an inviting, personal atmosphere.
