20 Amazing Free Headline Fonts You Must Use In 2017

headline font

2017 is right around the corner and people are making some interesting predictions regarding typography.
“Gone were the days when the digital sphere is very reluctant on using flashy typography on websites. As one of the most powerful and straightforward ways to create brand personality and tone, expect that more brands will take advantage of over-sized and hand-drawn typography on their websites this 2017.”

To be honest, that doesn’t surprise me. I’ve read a gazillion articles with tips and tricks for using typography in branding, and almost every single one contained this advice. “Use hand-drawn fonts to give your brand a human touch”

However, while designing a landing page, poster, presentation or just an image for your blog, there are always certain things you need to highlight, and a hand-drawn font might now always do the trick. In this case, a proper typeface could be really helpful. If you want to make an impact and get people’s attention, you need to use huge bold headline fonts. Even bold font may have its own personality: elegant, light, funny, energetic or serious.

In this list we have put together 20 bold free headline fonts. To download the font you need to go to the primary source, so make sure to read a licence of the font before using it. Also, we’ve rounded up a few amazing helvetica alternatives that you should deffinitley check out.

How to Build a Landing Page That Converts

featured image

Are you looking for the best and proven solution to build a professional web presence for your business or personal project? Ask any marketing specialist and he will tell you that a well-built landing page is exactly what you need to make people talk about you. But how to build a landing page that will convert accidental visitors into loyal customers? How to generate new leads for your business? How to design a powerful landing page? Let’s cover all of these aspects in one blog post.

A landing page is a place where the online story of your business begins. A landing page is the first spot that the users come across when looking for some general information about your business. This is the simplest and the most effective way of engaging the audience and inviting them for a productive dialogue.

What are landing pages all about?

  • A landing page represents one message that you want to deliver to your audience. It promotes a specific product/service/action and demonstrates all benefits of using it.
  • The design of the landing page should be clear and simple. It should stick to one point and provide for a simple comprehension of the content. The main objective is to captivate the users’ attention and arouse their desire to learn better about you and try your offers.
  • A landing page is intended to make viewers click.
  • A landing page is a single page made up of several clearly defined blocks that target to represent one message in a captivating, effective way.

Web Developer Landing Page Template
Depending on the way a landing page is designed, we can judge the potential success that a business standing behind it will attain. The more user-friendly a landing page is designed, the higher chances of triggering the users’ curiosity you have. It’s not a rocket science to build a professional landing page. Let’s consider the most effective tips on how to get started right and appeal to a wider audience.

Tip #1 Keep the Page Clean, Well Structured

The primary goal of a landing page is to make a clear presentation of a business it represents. In order to make it easier for your visitors to convert, it should have a simple and intuitive design. So that even first-time visitors will find it easy to come across the necessary piece of content effortlessly.

What makes the design of a landing page effective? These are the clever use of colors and bold, quality images that will look razor sharp on any screen. Call-to-action buttons and subscription forms (it depends on what specific goal your landing page pursues) should be put front and central. The key converting elements should look contrasting within the interface. CTAs should be painted in bright hues. Headlines and subheadings should look outstanding as a user scans your content.

A cool example of a landing page design built in clean style is Web Developer Landing Page Template. Suited for launching landing pages representing web design studios and freelancers, it features a well-structured, quick-to-scan design. CTAs and icons look contrasting to the background. The theme also makes clever use of whitespace, which adds a balanced touch to the layout.

 

Web Developer Landing Page Template
Tip #2 Make a Powerful Headline

A landing page should clearly communicate its objective. A headline is probably the first thing that your visitors will come across when reaching the page. That’s why a headline that makes a clear statement will help them better understand your objective. In addition to pushing the main value proposition in the headline, you can explain different aspects of certain software or offer in subheadings. When thinking about the main texts of the landing page, keep in mind that you are limited to 8 seconds only to convince the audience that your offer is truly worthy of their attention.

Let’s take a look at the following example. Car Repair Responsive Landing Page Template represents services provided by an auto repair company. It makes use of a bold headline and a set of subheadings that represent different aspects of the business. In the header of the page, there is an integrated appointment manager. It welcomes the users to make a request in a simple and intuitive manner.

 

Car Repair Responsive Landing Page Template
Tip #3 Make It Trustworthy

A landing page needs to have a set of trust signals, which will make your business look reliable in the eyes of your visitors. What elements are we talking about? These are blocks with user testimonials that are easy-to-locate on the landing page. The word of mouth is known as one of the most effective marketing “assistants”. People tend to trust fellow-shoppers far better than a well-written marketing text by the top specialists of your company. Other trust signals that you can opt for are star ratings, “likes” and “shares” that people leave on your site or share with their social media followers, respectively.

Consulting Landing Page Template features a clearly visually defined block with user testimonials, which accompanies a block with team members and a list of company benefits. The testimonials are organized into a carousel slider, letting your clients look through the feedback left by several users at a time.

Consulting Landing Page Template
Tip #4 Keep Forms Short & Clear

As a person reaches your landing page, he/she can be asked to fill in a certain form, which will be of use to you for certain marketing purposes. It’s clear that you need to collect as much data about your clients as possible. Still, it is of tremendous importance to keep those forms as short as possible. The more fields you ask them to fill in, the less likely they will get to the last question and complete the necessary conversion.

The following landing page includes a simple inquiry form made of three lines only, which increases the chances of attaining the desired action from your visitors.
Real Estate Responsive Landing Page Template

 

Tip #5 Make It Mobile-friendly

These days any web page should adjust to a variety of screen resolutions on the fly. People have shifted from desktops to handheld devices, so the way your landing page looks and feels on a touchscreen plays a predefining role. A mobile-friendly landing page will double your conversions and keep the users more engaged.

Tip #6 Know Your Audience

What kind of users do you target? Is that male or female audience? Are those adults or youngsters? The design of your landing page is heavily dependent on the way you answer these questions. Different people react to the same design elements differently. One of the aspects that we want to highlight is the color scheme of your landing page. Women are known to enjoy designs built in warm colors far better than the ones built in cool hues. Men, in their turn, enjoy more neutral, clear and concise web design style. That is why a landing page built in cool hues will be a perfect match for them.

As the name implies, Maria’s Bakery MotoCMS 3 Landing Builder targets the users who have a sweet tooth, i.e. women and kids. More often than not ladies make sweets and bake something tasty at home. So, building such a landing page in warm hues is a clever move.
