Fortunately, those times are over and now we have a huge variety of typographical options. So much so that sometimes we can take longer to choose the fonts and the tool than to choose a movie on Netflix, which in my case takes around three and a half days.
To do this, we are going to review the most popular Web Font Services and I will select my favorite fonts from each one of them.
Google Fonts
Google Fonts is the most widely used tool when it comes to Web Font Services and the one with the most fonts. It is a free service and that means that there is a bit of everything within the typographic options.
From among all of them I will select three:
Open Sans

Source Sans Pro

Raleway

Typekit
Typekit is the other giant along with Google Fonts, between the two gambling data india phone number of them they share the biggest slice of the pie. It belongs to Adobe and in this case it is paid, so the quality of the fonts is a little higher, since we find many licensed fonts such as Futura.

Typotheque
Typoteque offers a wide variety of families through a paid service, similar to Typekit, but the fonts we find are not of the same quality (it is difficult to compete with Adobe), however there are some interesting ones. What is definitely worthwhile is to take a look at their store of books on typography.

Webtype
Unfortunately, I predict the same future for Webtype , also a paid service, as for Fontdeck , another web font service, which has ended up closing down, partly because competing with Adobe and Google is like playing in the Champions League with a bunch of friends. However, among the vast majority of totally dispensable fonts, I would like to highlight one: Escrow, a very elegant serif typeface.

Brick
At Brick they have adopted the famous phrase by Mies Van der Rohe "less is more". Few fonts but most of them are of great quality and totally free. Among others you can find Montserrat, the best alternative to Gotham, but in this case in all its weights, unlike what happens in Google Fonts, which only offer one.

After this review, I can only invite you to visit each of the different tools with some frequency because their catalogue is constantly expanding and updating. May the source be with you.
