Accessibility Issues

An accessibility Audit is for those of you who already own a website and are concerned that you may be either missing out on potential customers (which you are if people with disabilities cannot access your website information), or contravening legislation (which under present law depends entirely upon which way the judge decides in a civil case).

The first stage of an Accessibility Audit is an automated report which you could obtain yourself from any of the main online accessibility validators.

The second stage is to perform a manual read through of your programming pages against the accessibility criteria because some of the checks just cannot be performed reliably by software. Indeed some of them cannot be performed automatically at all. I defy any automated program to judge upon issues such as the 'suitability' of text in certain programming tags.

The third stage is the written report for the customer detailing what needs fixing and why. The client then has to decide whether they wish to make the corrections themselves, get their usual webmaster to do it, or pay me.

I will of course include a quote for the work in with the report.
