Whether you are designing a page for printing or for a website, there are several general methods that should be use to ensure that your visual layout is a strong one. One of the main methods to keep in mind when designing a visual layout is to use hierarchy when designing. This means that your design should have a clear sense of structure and hierarchy, where the headline should almost always be more visually important than the body text. To do so it is important to modify the size and style of the fonts used, so that they help the more important concepts to be highlighted.
