Website Design and Usability
Digital Bridge creates website templates that adhere with World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) standards.
Accessibility and usability “levels” rely heavily on the intended audience. When pages are made XHTML compliant as per W3C recommendations, this allows for easier, smoother upgrades to emerging standards.
Compliance with Internet Web Standards will provide a website that is:
- Faster
- More easily found on search engines
- More accessible to users with disabilities
- Allows easier maintenance through the separation of site content and presentation elements.
- Forward-compatible with future standards, and more likely to work with Internet enabled devices such as smart phones and other domestic appliances
Accessibility and usability are broad topics and a lot of effort is required to make a software application or website fully compliant with the standards. A practical approach should be applied.
