Accessibility

Accessibility is a necessary element of your website. It's imperative to make your website available to as many people as possible, no matter what hardware or software they’re using. By providing an accessible website, you are open to a wider range of customers.

Accessible websites can be optimised for different types of users. Features can be added to aid readability for dyslexic , colourblind, older or otherwise visually-impaired users, and users whose motor skills mean that they can't use a mouse.

Accessible websites are also open to search engines. An accessible website ensures that search engines are able to easily reach your content, providing you with a higher ranking and increased visits.

Accessibility And Your New Website
Senior Internet includes WCAG Priority 1 accessibility as standard with all new website builds, and aims for Priority 2 or 3.

Our (X)HTML and CSS validates, providing full compatibility with the following browsers:

• Firefox 1+ for Windows and Macintosh
• Internet Explorer 5+ for Windows
• Safari 1+ for Macintosh

We can also easily include compatibility for the following browsers:

• Opera 7+ for Windows and Macintosh
• Internet Explorer 5 for Windows and Macintosh
• Netscape 7+ for Windows and Macintosh

We can also develop for:

• JAWS
• Home Page Reader
• Lynx
• Another screen reader of your choice

Senior Internet can provide full WCAG Priority 3 accessibility - see what we did for the e-tranetCRM site

 

We now design and develop sites that utilise a "liquid layout" - meaning that sites scale up or down proportionally to the size of your browser window. They look great in all screen resolutions, and if you increase or decrease the text size the site accommodates this without compromising the layout.

Accessibility And Your Existing Site
We can also take your existing website and make it accessible – providing your visitors (and search engines) with full access to it.

Keeping your original design, Senior Internet can edit your existing site to meet WCAG Priority 1 accessibility or higher.
