Let’s talk about the best color for blog!
I am sure that every web designer will agree with a fact that color is a very important part of a blog .you can see blog templates from frugal or unique blog design, they really know how to choose colors, and they are expert at combine one color with others and make all templates looking nice and fit on every eye.
Based on their templates, I can learn a few things which I am sure will help you to choose best color for your blog and here we go:
Choosing best color for background
Based on best blog design that I ever seen, you have two options to choose background color for your blog:
- The first : choose a color that contrast with your blog , example : your blog is using white or light grey color , then you can choose dark color like black or dark grey color as a background color. The benefit: this will help your visitor easier to focus and read the contents on your blog.
- The second: choose a color that related with your blog color, example: your blog color is white then you can use light grey as a background color .The benefit: make your blog look cleaner and nice.
Choosing best color for font and link
Font color is extremely important which can make your visitor stay longer on your blog and read your article and I found that white or black is not the best color , you may surprised with this but dark brown and dark grey is better ( light grey is better if your background color is black or very dark color )
Choosing link color is the same, especially if you make money with adsense. You must choose the same color for both your adsense link and blog link and I found that dark blue is the best color (#000080)
The key of all!
When I say that color is extremely important, I mean it and my tips is just a recommended. I believe you can choose the best color for your own blog.

Jeandsen,
I’ve read orange and blue on a white background are the best colors for web design.
Personally, I like a crisp white background with blue shading for the boxes and red font for post titles. I think red doesn’t work for a lot of people though.
Currently, I have white, grey, and blue in my current wp theme, but is it primarily due to being the best free design for which I can work with the code.
I’ve seen too many sites where I wondered if the designer was color blind (and in some cases just blind).
Color is definitely important – great post.
Regards,
Brad

Colours choice is important. It depends on the type of your blog. If its a music or movie blog use different and dark colours.
I like red, blue and brown and black and Grey colours.
