: Accessibility

Accessibility is fundamental to website usability, it enables more people, of all abilities, to use a website effectively in more situations.

Accessibility also relates to the Disability Discrimination Act, and how it affects websites. Businesses with websites with poor accessibility may be at risk of future legal action.

The benefits of an accessible website:

  • More people using your site equals more business
  • Legal compliance - UK DDA
  • Recognised accreditation - W3C WAI & RNIB See it Right
  • Better usability in web browsers and mobile web devices
  • Cost savings - easier site maintenance
  • Positive business image and best practice

You have the opportunity to ensure your website is accessible today. Accessibility not only maximises the usability of your site, it also reduces the potential risk of discriminative legal action.
