Although making your website accessible can be simple or complex (depending on factors such as the type of content, the size and complexity of the website), we ensure that accessibility features are incorporated from the beginning of the website development or redesign, in line with W3C, making them far easier to implement.
Website accessibility means that people with disabilities can use your website. The internet is an increasingly important resource in many aspects of life so it is essential that information is accessible and provides equal access and equal opportunity to people with disabilities.
Website accessibility also benefits people without disabilities. For example, a key principle is designing websites and web software is that they are flexible enough to meet different user needs, preferences and situations. This flexibility also benefits people without disabilities in certain situations such as using a slow internet connection, 'temporary' disabilities such as a broken arm and people with changing abilities due to aging.
Simple techniques such as changing settings in a browser can determine if a website page meets some accessibility guidelines. A comprehensive evaluation to determine if a website meets all accessibility guidelines is much more complex. Although we use evaluation tools, they alone cannot determine if a website meets accessibility guidelines. Knowledgeable human evaluation is required to determine if a website is accessible.
