5 Fonts I Can’t Live Without

With the rise of social media and the popularity of visual storytelling, I use tons of pictures with headlines to attract the attention of my audience. A good font can make the difference in standing out among your competitors.

Here are FIVE Fonts I can’t live without:

This font is bold, yet a tad playful. I like the fullness of the font, which makes it stand out on the visuals I use in my Twitter feed or Facebook posts.  You can get the fontfrom Dafont.com

This font has a sports feel without being too sporty. The shape when in all caps allows for a balance in my visuals. The letters do not loop down and interfere with other text or pictures.  This appears to be discontinued on Dafont.com. Try a Google search to find it.

I have been using this font for over a decade.  Growing up during the Nirvana/Grunge music transition, this font holds a special place in my heart. Any time I want to be a little edgy, I use this font. This font can be found on Dafont.com

 

When I need something to stand out more than usual, this is my go to font. I like it because it does not look like a font. It looks like I used a label gun. Changing the color is also neat in certain circumstances.  This font can be found on Dafont.com

This font gives a tad more sophistication to my designs, yet is still playful enough to not be take serious.  This modern design gives my visuals a bit of a change of pace, but does not get too wild. This font can be found on Dafont.com

In Conclusion

Dafont.com is my go to place for great fonts. Changing your fonts can be a great way to stand out, but not get too crazy. 

My advice is to explore different fonts before settling on something.  Make sure the font aligns with your message and the overall design theme.
