The importance of Web accessibility standards has been recognized around the world. Making sure your company is compliant with the latest standards can help you gain valuable market share and avoid the risk of costly litigation, settlements and loss of reputation and business. Accordingly, the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) has developed a set of universal guidelines for Web development titled Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2) that has become widely adopted on a global basis. There are also country specific regulations, such as the U.S. Access Board’s Section 508 standard and Canada’s Standard on Web accessibility. When website developers follow the WCAG 2.0 and country-specific compliance standards and guidelines for accessibility such as Section 508, online information can be browsed by everyone, including people who use assistive technologies such as screen readers, text readers and voice-activated devices.
