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.

I’m a big fan of naldzgraphics but for me, the best website design here is “Freelance switch”. Cool, elegant and clean.
I noticed that FortySevenMedia have so far redesigned their site making it even more cool, the same applies to the likes of naldzgraphics who has twinkled their’s a bit. But in overall these are very cool sites.
Vimeo and NaldzGraphics are my favorite sites from the list. And thanks for intoducing “Freelance switch” to me. I never came across this site.
The best way to go is to lose the template look and be yourself. Love that FortySevenMedia has a tab that states, “Don’t hire us”. Now that is an attention grabber.
I agree that big fonts can be a good choice in web layouts. For example a big font on the brand name, can really help make the branding clear
NaldzGraphics one of my Favorite website in the list.
Carsonified design is simple but great. ^^
Great collection. Thanks for the inspiration.
good idea to share i like the blizzard one thanks for sharing…..
Vimeo pulls it off in the best way. With a glossy effect on bold fonts, it does look nice.
Freelance Switch is very cute. ^^
