Accessibility
What Is Accessibility?
Accessibility means that your website is able to be used without any limitations by everyone no matter what their capability or disability.
Why Does Accessibility Matter?
Websites with good accessibility reach a greater audience, increase sales in e-commerce environments, improve search engine listings and ensure your site complies with the disability discrimination act.
How Do We Implement Accessibility?
We design all of our websites using the latest markup language called XHTML, the latest recommendation by the W3C. The beauty of XHTML is that it can be universally interpreted by a wide variety of browser platforms such as screen readers, braille devices, mobile phones and other portable devices.
Testing Accessibility
We consider thorough testing the most vital component of website development. To guarantee first class accessibility we put the website through the following stringent tests:
- W3C XHTML validation service ensures that all of our code conforms to W3C XHTML recommendations.
- Watchfire's WebXACT website quality checking tool certifies that our designs adhere to W3C AAA compliance.
- HiSoftware's Cynthia Says accessibility compliant code checker makes sure that our websites are section 508 compliant.
