\n2.\u00a0Images with Alt Text – <\/strong><\/a>Alternative text allows individuals who use a screen reader to have knowledge of the picture included within the website through a description of the image included in the alternative text function of the image.
\n3.\u00a0Colors That Do Not Convey Content – <\/strong><\/a>When colors are used, they must have sufficient contrast and not convey meaning. The most pressing issue is that the text stands out against the background.
\n4. Headers to Support Structure –\u00a0<\/strong><\/a>Headings provide an outline so that a user will understand the page layout. Headings also provide for a more organized website for all users, regardless of using assistive technology.
\n5. Tagged Forms –<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>Forms are extremely useful for a wide variety of sites, but need to be designed carefully to include clearly labeled fields. Forms should allow users to “tab” through each field of the form and include descriptive text in each field for screen readers.
\n6. Tables Only for Tabular Data –<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>Tables should be created in the simplest way. It is best to avoid using tables for anything but tabular data. Instead, columns can be used to divide content into sections.
\n7. Descriptive Hyperlinks –<\/strong><\/a> Linked text within a website should use descriptive text rather than the full website address. The linked text should be descriptive but short and easy to convey where the link will take the user.<\/p>\n
