Web Accessibility

There are still literally thousands of organisations and businesses who do not take web accessibility seriously; even with the provision of content and services over the web being legally obliged to do so in the UK and most other developed countries.

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) have been updated to version 2.0 after years in draft form. This signals the end to the common "A", "AA" and "AAA" based rating and opens the doors to make accessibility more attainable, sustainable and practical.

It's not all doom and gloom though. Making your web site friendly for disabled or otherwise impaired users is pretty simple to do these days, without incurring lots of cost and hassle.

Thanks to growing standards in browsers, technology, coding and testing, we can now audit, develop and monitor web sites and how they perform when used by people with visual, learning and motor skills impairment.

It's not just those considered disabled either. People of all ages suffer from various forms of blindness, colour blindness, RSI, Arthritis etc and so by understanding these factors up front, we can design your user experience to be as optimal as possible in the face of competition.
