Introduction
Now to the four questions

Is your site full of hidden treasures? Let's hope not.

Treasures, good. Hidden, bad. If your site's visitors can't
navigate effortlessly through all parts of your site, your web

A well-designed navigation system is a critical component of any
successful web site. It should be persistent and consistent
throughout the site and should answer these four questions:

Introduction to Website Accessibility
Basics, standards and validators
Conclusion

Accessibility. What is it and why is it important? An accessible website is one that is reasonably easy for everyone to make use of. When developers create a website assumptions are made about the user and how that person interacts with the computer. However, it should be remembered that the user experience is different for everyone and that the person can control many aspects. This is important to those who have a disability, such as poor vision, colour blindness, deafness or those who have a physical disability. Many of these people make use of the Internet on a regular basis and require alternative methods of accessing information. Being aware of this and addressing the issue will increase the potential for people to view your website and the impact your site will have.
