I am developing website for the company delivering wesite content writing and SEO copywriting services. What header design would you recommend me to use?

For a content-writing / SEO-copy site the header should do three things: establish trust, state the primary offer fast, and make conversion/contact obvious. The replies from , and point toward a clean, content-first approach; add to that by making the header a measurable, accessible part of the site rather than just decoration.

Keep these structural elements visible and semantic: a lightweight SVG logo with meaningful alt, a very short USP/tagline near the brand, a primary nav with clear, descriptive labels, and a prominent contact/CTA (phone or “Get a Quote” button) that remains accessible on small screens. Ensure each page has a unique H1 (the homepage can use the brand, content pages should use a descriptive H1). Add Organization/WebSite structured data so search engines can associate the logo and brand with the site.

Prioritize typography, contrast and performance. Use one UI sans and one readable serif for longer text, limit the palette to a small, consistent set (primary + accent + neutral), and check color contrast against WCAG 2.1 guidelines (WCAG 2.1). Make headers responsive: a compact sticky header can help conversions but avoid taking too much vertical space. Use SVG for logos/icons, defer heavy webfonts, and monitor Core Web Vitals.

Quick checklist:

  • Semantic header markup + unique page H1.
  • Visible CTA on desktop and mobile (not hidden in a menu).
  • Accessible nav (keyboard focus, aria labels) and sufficient contrast.
  • Lightweight assets (SVG logo, optimized images, deferred fonts).
  • Organization/WebSite JSON-LD for brand/Logo.

Example minimal Organization JSON-LD (replace placeholders):

<script type="application/ld+json">
{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"Organization","name":"Example Co","url":"https://example.com","logo":"https://example.com/logo.svg"}
</script>

For accessibility details see WCAG 2.1 and for structured-data guidance see Google Search Central (Structured data).

Since this is very serious business I would seriously avoid

1. Something that uses too many colours because it doesn't serve any purpose.

2. I wouldn't use any flash at all. (personal reasons ;))

3. I wouldn't use too much flashy fonts.

4. I will not give it a cartoon like appearance like with dark 3pt lines running across images etc with bright colours inside them.

Rather I would go for something which is not graphically too attractive that your visitors might get distracted with. Something plain and simple in 2 colours will probably do.

If you can tell us the colours in your mind then we can give you a better idea.

Give it a look of something like old paper and old traditional pen in the right hand top corner (ink pen). Use lesser images and also avoid flash because it doesn't reflect content writing services.

Just give it a look like the head part of the notepad and i'm sure it will rock.

No motion.
