New Web Accessibility website launches
Web Services in ITS has launched a new website focused on best practices for creating accessible content on ÐÓ°ÉÔ´´ websites. The Web Accessibility site highlights 10–15 commonly overlooked accessibility areas, each with:
- An explanation of its importance
- A best practice example
- A less accessible example
- Related benefits in SEO, usability, and marketability
- WCAG references with quotes and links
The site features a clean, user-friendly design and is a database of factors in creating accessible content, tailored to ÐÓ°ÉÔ´´â€™s needs. Its goal is to help the ÐÓ°ÉÔ´´ community build accessible websites – not as a “problem” to fix, but as a foundation for inclusive design. Accessibility improves usability, search rankings, and ÐÓ°ÉÔ´´â€™s overall appeal.
