Accessible Web Design

Is your website legal?

Website accessibility is about making your website accessible to all Internet users (both disabled and non-disabled), regardless of what browsing technology they're using. Your website may be illegal if it is not. AIM Internet can provide you with a comprehensive report to ensure your own site is compliant.

Website Accessibility means

• Your website will appear higher in the search engines -the more confident a search engine is of what your website is about, the higher it'll place your website in the search rankings.
• Your website will be easier to manage and update using style sheet sets
• Your website will be compatible with new technology as it evolves such as PDAs and mobile phones
• Your website's download time will significantly improve
• You won't have to incur legal costs if taken to court
• The usability of your website will be enhanced - this has been known to increase traffic by up to 100%
