Websites
that are badly designed hinder the visibility of your site to users with
disabilities and also to search engines. Many people simply don’t
care about accessibility issues, their main concern is in obtaining high
rankings in search engine results such as google.
Because Zofo Creative focus on accessibility, it’s second nature to us that our sites are readable by search engines. Accessibility and SEO go hand in hand.
We are highly skilled in developing websites to W3C Standards in compliance with the Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI). All of our sites are tested to WAI conformance levels. We integrate the ability for users to increase text sizes, use screen readers and adaptive keyboards to access web content.
Zofo Creative are committed to ensuring that our websites are accessible to everyone. We believe it’s not a privilege you should have to pay extra for. If you have any questions regarding the accessibility of this site, please contact us, as we are continually striving to improve accessibility for all visitors.
To comply with the standards set out by the W3C, XHTML and CSS files are validated to ensure Accessibility is advanced as far as possible. Depending on the criteria of the website, the site is coded to achieve Priority 1, 2 or 3 checkpoints in accordance with the WCAG Web Content Accessibility Guidelines.
This skip navigation feature allows the user (using assistive technology such as a screen reader and access by keyboard-only) to bypass the top navigation of this site and go straight to the main content section of the page. This means the user does not have to tab through all the navigation links to get to the most important part of each page. The link is hidden from users with graphical browsers.
This site uses access keys. Access keys are keyboard shortcuts on a web site that give a user quick and easy access to areas of a site using the keyboard instead of the mouse. Access keys enable a user to move around the links on a single web page. They also allow users to move to various pages within the entire site.
