Customizing Kajabi Fonts - Blog Image

Customizing your Kajabi fonts might seem like a small act of making your website unique. But it makes a big difference. Your Kajabi font can add a lot to the look and feel of your website.

I’ll tell you the importance of your website’s typography and the step-by-step process of how to personalize it on your Kajabi site. In addition, I’ll guide you on how to add custom fonts regardless of your Kajabi plan.

Why Typography Matters

Before I guide you through the process, I want to share these three reasons why changing your fonts on Kajabi pages is essential to your online business.

1. Legibility

Readability plays a huge factor in delivering your message to your audience. Content that is hard to read, even though it’s well-written, will not keep the readers engaged.

And as someone running an online business, this can affect your sales conversion. If your readers feel uncomfortable with the font type, style, and color, plus the spacing you used, they won’t finish reading your copy.

So when choosing your website’s body and heading fonts, remember that “less is more.” Don’t make your fonts too colorful or big. Instead, choose the right size (around 16 px), and pick one to two solid colors (one for your heading then for the body.) Learning about the perfect typography combination is also a good way to avoid using fonts that look awkward with each other.

Here’s an example of good typography:

2. Branding

A brand refers to the image that represents your business or product. Most people think about logos or site colors when it comes to branding. However, your fonts are also part of your brand. They reflect how you want your audience to see and remember you.

Choosing the right fonts will exude your preferred vibe and set the mood for your website. So if you want to be viewed as someone professional, using Helvetica, Futura, or sans serif fonts will be the best choice.

On the other hand, if you want your site to look accommodating, you can use fonts like Playtime or Fredoka One.

3. Order of Importance

Typography hierarchy refers to how the text elements appear in a document. It typically includes the headings, subtitles, and paragraphs. This hierarchy indicates what the audience needs to focus on a page and what parts they can skip.

To make the order obvious, you can change the font color of the headings and make it bigger than the subheadings and the body. This way, the readers will automatically identify the important parts.

Here’s a good example:

Now that you know how important your fonts are, it’s time to change yours and get your website looking its best.

How Can I Change Fonts in Kajabi?

Choosing the right font for your business is easy with Kajabi. It has a selection of some of the most common and professional-looking fonts you can use.

To change your fonts, follow these steps closely:

On your Kajabi site, open the “Website” tab from the dashboard.

Click the “Pages” tab. You should first set up your website theme to see your pages in this section.

Under the “Font” section, you can also change the following:

  • Font Color. Kajabi allows you to change the body, secondary body, placeholder, and heading font colors. Changing these helps you emphasize the content hierarchy to the readers.
  • Desktop and Mobile Font Sizes. Aside from the font colors and font-weight, you can also change the desktop and mobile font sizes. You can configure the heading font sizes from H1 to H6 and the body text size here. H1 refers to the main title, H2-H6 are the subtitles, and the body pertains to paragraph text and text blocks.
  • Error Message. Whenever there’s an issue with your website, an error message will show. You may change the text and background color under the “Style Guide” to match your brand or make it unique.

How to Add Google Fonts to Kajabi

Google has a collection of over 915 fonts, and they are all free to download and use for your website.

Adding Google fonts on the code editor is only allowed on Kajabi’s Pro Plan. However, you can still add Google fonts by embedding them on the custom code of your page. That’s what I’m going to teach you.

It might sound a little complicated, but follow the steps below, and you’ll be able to do it in a few minutes!

Select your preferred Google font.

Go to your Kajabi website and open the “Website” tab from the dashboard.

Select the “Pages” tab and choose which page you’d like to add the font. Click “Customize.”

You can also do this on your Kajabi landing page or pipeline. But for this example, I’ll customize the “Home” page under the “Website” page builder.

Click the Site “Settings” tab on the right sidebar. Then select “Custom Code” to add the custom font.

On the Custom CSS bar, paste the code of the Google font on the “CSS Code” section. Then click “Save.” This action will save your custom font on your website’s system.

Select the text on your page where you want to use that font.

Add this code (<span style=”ENTER SECOND PIECE OF CODE HERE”>) to the heading code or the body code. Kajabi provides this code to activate the custom font. Remember to put it after the opening code. For example, if you want to change the font of your paragraph text, you can insert the code after “<p>.”

Aside from Google fonts, Kajabi also allows other free and paid custom fonts like Adobe. You can follow the instructions above and embed the custom font on your landing page or pipeline.

Just click your Pipeline page builder tab or Pipelines page builder tab, and open the “Custom Code” under site “Settings.”

Create an Assets Page where you can upload a licensed font file. Kajabi provides different CSS codes depending on your font format code type. You can view the following here.
