There have been hundreds of free fonts created this year, but we have surprisingly few good fonts that can be used for designer’s purposes. Do you want to get a font that will be most effective in your web environment? We are here to show you them. Remember however that font will dictate how the bodies of text will appear throughout your website. Choosing the font for your project you need to keep the overall layout of your website in mind. Pick a font that works well in site’s visual flow, and as letters are images themselves you should therefore consider font’s weight, style, kerning, and letter-spacing. It can actually make a huge difference between the web page that captivates with its content and one that turns visitors away because of a horrible readability (check out one of our previous posts demonstrating the true power of a proper font in an actual website design). So put thought into your font choice, go through our compilation of 40 new fonts available for free download online. Chances are you will use one of the compelling free fonts from this list.
