Despite how popular the trend of characters and mascots was back in the 2010-2011 era of web design, we found it pretty difficult to find many fresh examples of cartoon-inspired web designs.
That’s not to say we didn’t find some cracking designs though! Today’s showcase features 20 fun websites that all feature cool cartoon characters. These sites have a fun personality and atmosphere which is a welcome contrast to the vast range of serious web designs we see on a daily basis.

Adding a cartoon character to your website can give it a fun, playful look. It can definitely work for certain website designs, so if you’re working on a project where a client asked you for a cartoon character or cartoon-inspired design, use these websites for your inspiration.
cartoon inspired websites though amazing are not suitable for many occupations or online businesses , but if I had a site related to website design , I would definitely chose cartoon inspired website.
I love them all haha! I really want to make a cartoon version of me with some super power for my website now.
