Establishing Visual Hierarchy

Visual hierarchy is the arrangement of elements in a way that implies importance. It guides the user's eye through the content in a logical and strategic sequence. 

Visual hierarchy is the invisible hand guiding you through a webpage. It’s the strategy of styling elements—text, images, buttons—to signal their importance. Without it, a page is just a wall of noise where everything competes for attention, leaving the user wondering what to click.
