Accessibility - Site Build
We'll create your website just the way you want it; with an appealing design and with your target audience in mind. We'll make your website accessible and as feature rich as you need it to be. The only difference will be in the coding; it will be clean, slim and according to website accessibility standards. Having your website accessible is a major positive for your business. A WCAG badge is available for your website which confirms accessibility.
What does building an accessible website mean?
When building an accessible site, special attention must be paid to the coding. Valid XHTML and CSS code is used, images have an alternative text description and links have meaningful descriptions. Screen readers and assistive technologies will have no problems interacting with the website. These are only some of the specialties about accessible websites.
- People with disabilities are considered so they to can enjoy your site. Visually impaired people can use the site by means of a screen reader, which reads out the content and picture's descriptions.
- People using the web in new ways – such as on their TVs who may be a good distance from the screen will be able to adjust text sizes to suit their needs with smooth transition so the page won’t appear to fall apart on them.
- A variety of browsers display the site equally well and the sites performance is independent of technical constraints.
- Another benefit is that you can let people know about your efforts; accessible websites are rewarded with the WCAG badge from the WAI (World Accessibility Initiative). The WCAG are the most recognized international website accessibility standards.
