For a little while now webfonts have been increasing in popularity in web design, and thank goodness as there is only so much you can do with the same few websafe fonts we had been using. There are a few services around the web now that allow you to implement different fonts into your website, but the one I now use the most is Google Webfonts. It’s free and doesn’t require you to create an account, and super easy to implement into your html and css.
The collection of fonts offered by Google is continually growing, below I am sharing a few of my favourites that I love using in website and blog designs.
Font Selection: Josefin Slab, Yeseva One, Oswald, Old Standard TT, Amatic SC, Raleway , Muli

These are wonderful – I love good typography so much and it’s great that we can use it on the web now without needing to creating a whole load of images .
(You’re a fabulous designer though – I bet you could make Comic Sans look good)!
I love how you have used all of these Jo – gorgeous. I kind of agree with Angie, you could probably make Comic Sans look good.
My recent Google Fonts favourite is Crete Round. Have been using it on my personal site and love it!
Love Railway Thin and all of these quotes. Beautiful fonts make me so happy.
Great list! ;) I’m using Oswald right now. ;) I also love the Old Standard and the Arvo. ;)
I love this post! I just discovered Amatic and Muli. Droid Serif is becoming one of my faves too! I love Google Web Fonts :)
I’m a typography lover!!
Josephin Slab and Amatic are my favorites too! Google Fonts has made my design job about 10 times easier.
I love Josephin Slab and Raleway. I’d be happy to use those fonts all day long if I could!
I keep meaning to try out Google Fonts on my blog, but I always end up at Typekit instead. Next time!!
These are beautiful! Can’t wait to peruse through Google Fonts when I get home.
Lovely!! Thanks for sharing. ;)
Thank you so much for sharing these! I really need to venture into this realm, but I’m always overwhelmed! This is a great starting point. :)
Thanks everyone, lovely to hear you enjoyed the post! Typography is so much fun :)
Hi Jo, I just discovered your blog via Pinterest (like everything!) and wanted to leave a comment to say how much I love it, so very pretty! I already use Muli from Google Web Fonts on my blog but Amatic SC is a new one on me, what a great font!
Thanks for sharing your picks, I look forward to reading your future posts.
