Accessibility
Accessibility is becoming an increasingly key requirement for many websites today. There are various legal requirements that now need to be met by certain types of online services and its always good to make your products and services available to as wider audience as possible. For that reason we build all our websites to work well on as many web browsers as practical and to work well with accessibility technologies such as screen readers.
All our websites are built with standards compliant CSS and XHTML markup and follow the World Wide Web Consortium's (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) which are currently considered the standard for measuring a website's level of Accessibility.
We are also quite happy to audit your existing website and suggest or implement improvements which will help improve accessibility and usability.
