A Web for Everyone
If you are in charge of the user experience, development, or strategy for a web site, A Web for Everyone will help you make your site accessible without sacrificing design or innovation. Rooted in universal design principles, this book provides solutions: practical advice and examples of how to create sites that everyone can use.
Mobile is proving once again what accessibility advocates knew all along—designing for universal access is a smart business decision. The same accessibility principles that make your website work for everyone will also help your website work well with all devices, screen sizes, and input mechanisms. Accessibility isn’t just about providing a great experience for the disabled—it’s what will enable you to connect with all your users, regardless of which device they use to go online.”
—Karen McGrane, author of Content Strategy for Mobile
