Make sure your website caters to the disabled

by Jeremy Schoemaker on January 4, 2006 · 1 comment

Being that Today is the Birthday of Lous Braille It made me think about a recent article I read about make sure your website caters to the disabled. There is a estimated 500 MILLION dollars a year spent online from disabled people and if your website is ignoring them then you are ignoring some serious dollars.

How do blind people surf the web? Basically they have talking devices that speak out the ALT and TITLE tags for images. AND YOU THOUGHT THAT STUFF WAS JUST FOR SEO HUH!?

The UK’s Bank of England is still keeping interest rates low but this is not being reflected in mortgages or loans.
