What is website accessibility?
An accessible website is one that has been coded and had content entered in a way that it can be used by people with disabilities and who may use assistive technology to navigate the web. Over 1 billion people worldwide have a disability of one type or another, many of which can make it challenging to use websites that are poorly coded or have not had special attention paid to how content is entered.

Who benefits from accessibility on the web?
Examples of disabilities that can cause challenges in navigating or interacting with content on the web include:

• blindness or visual impairments,
• deafness or hearing loss,
• motor challenges ranging from loss of a limb to quadriplegia to the tremors and arthritis that are common as people age,
• cognitive disabilities related to conditions people are born with or traumatic brain injuries that happen later in life,
• epilepsy,
• motion sickness,
• reading difficulties such as dyslexia,
• and more…
