Proper font and right font size might not affect SEO but it does have impact on user experience. Although commonly used browsers have ability to change the font-size to small/medium/large, it's important for you not to depend on browser and set a proper font size.

Font size does not directly impact SEO rankings, meaning Google doesn’t use it as a specific ranking factor in its algorithm. However, font size can indirectly affect SEO by influencing user experience, which is something search engines do consider.
If your font is too small or difficult to read—especially on mobile devices—it can lead to a poor user experience. Visitors may leave your site quickly, increasing your bounce rate and reducing dwell time. These signals tell Google that users aren’t finding your content useful or engaging, which could negatively impact your rankings over time.
Additionally, if your font size causes issues with mobile usability, Google may flag it in Search Console. Since Google uses mobile-first indexing, any readability issues on smaller screens can affect how your site performs in search results.
Using clear, properly sized fonts improves accessibility, engagement, and overall readability, all of which support better SEO indirectly. It’s recommended to use at least 16px for body text and adjust heading sizes for a clear content hierarchy.
In summary, while font size isn’t a direct ranking factor, making your site easy to read with well-sized fonts contributes to a better user experience—and that helps your SEO.

While font size doesn't directly impact SEO ranking algorithms, it indirectly affects SEO by influencing user experience and accessibility, which can impact search rankings. A website with a well-chosen font size enhances readability, usability, and can lead to lower bounce rates and longer session durations, all of which are positive signals for SEO.

Font size itself isn’t a direct SEO ranking factor, but it affects user experience—readability, time on page, and bounce rates—which do influence rankings. So, using a legible, user-friendly font size can indirectly benefit your SEO.

Font size does not directly change your SEO ranking but it still matters. If the text is too small people may leave your site quickly. This can hurt your SEO. Google wants users to have a good experience. Easy to read font helps people stay longer and read more. So always choose a clear font size for better results.
