Ilikecake Accessible Website Design

 

Accessibility

ilikecake specialise in developing websites for individual companies and organisations which aim to cater for the widest possible audience. All new websites designed by ilikecake will reach a minimum of WCAG Level AA accessibility.

By creating websites to internationally recognised standards all of the information in the website is accessible to a wider audience including those with disabilities, older users of the internet and novice computer users.

About Accessibility

Accessible website design is the name given to the process when a website is designed with people with disabilities in mind. In accessible design all of the features of a website which are available to 'normal' users are available to the disabled. In an accessible website most of the changes are in the background code and make no difference to the average user. If anything, accessible sites usually score higher in general usability testing. An accessibly designed site will have a better search engine ranking, more visitors and will be more navigable due to 'shallow navigation' and the inclusion of a sitemap.

All government funded websites are required to be accessible to people with disabilities in line with Irish & EU legislation.

Ilikecake are experienced with finding newer cutting-edge technologies which are accessible to people with disabilities, and also provide a rich Internet experience.

Cost Effectiveness

Many companies have found that creating accessible Web sites is cost-effective and generally good business practice.

Legal Compliance

Both Ireland and the EU have Accessibility Legislation which your organisation should comply with.

Larger Audience

Accessible websites naturally have a wider market as they accommodate a broader range of people.
