PSA: A reader told me my blog's font was 'like reading a ransom note' and they were right.
I switched from using 8 different typefaces to just one clean one, and my bounce rate dropped by 30% in a month. Has anyone else gotten a piece of design feedback that totally changed their site?

What did your bounce rate look like before? Mine was a disaster. I had a client tell me my color scheme was giving them a headache, and honestly, they were being kind. I was using neon green on gray. Switched to normal colors and people actually stay on the page now.

Neon green on gray sounds like a visual alarm clock. My bounce rate was basically a 100% exit poll. People took one look and hit the back button like their mouse was on fire. It was a masterclass in how to clear a room. Your client was a saint for only mentioning a headache. Switching colors is the difference between a website and a warning sign.
