Bold is Beautiful – 10 Websites Where Big & Bold Rule!

I love sites that use bigger fonts and aren’t afraid to wrap them with the < strong > tag to get the idea across. It’s in your face and and to the point and that’s how I like my fonts. Now let’s go watch some football and drink some beer. Oh sorry, big fonts bring out the “man” in me. Haha, ok not really, well maybe a little.


The huge bold font technique was popularized by the web 2.0 movement and while the overall glossy look of web 2.0 seems to have died off quite a bit (thankfully), the big fonts are here to stay. Below are ten sites we think really pull it off nicely.

    I'm surprised you didn't add Huge Inc. on that list. They are the definition of bold type.
