Custom Web Fonts
-
If we decide to use custom web fonts - using CSS + linked .ttf files - will there be any sort of issue in terms of being looked down upon by SE's?
I realize there would be a slight increase in download time - but other than that has anyone experienced any negative effects?
-
We have never had any negative SEO effects from this. Just make sure you handle it the correct way - its a bit more than just uploading a ttf file. Use either Google fonts or a create your own "kit" with font squirrel which converts your font to all of the necessary files and gives you the sample css and html codes to implement it correctly.
Here are a few resources:
