At TINTA, the pursuit of design improvement is constant. We prioritize accessibility in every step of our website creation process and we consider it essential to ensure that everyone, regardless of their abilities, can access and engage with digital content seamlessly. Here is how we do it:
Use Alt Text for Images: By incorporating this text, screen-reading tools can describe images to visually impaired readers. It will also help you as the website owner by enabling search engines to crawl and rank your website more effectively.
Fonts: When it comes to accessible fonts, legibility is very important. The fonts should boast appropriate width, thickness, and height, making them easily readable for all users. In general, fonts should have a maximum 12-point width, a few examples are: Times New Roman, Verdana, and Arians.
Keyboard-Friendly Interfaces and Navigation: The keyboard UI is a crucial component of software accessibility, benefiting users with visual or motor disabilities who rely on assistive technologies. We make sure all interactive elements, such as buttons and forms, can be easily navigated using a keyboard alone, benefiting users who cannot use a mouse.
Implement Captions and Transcripts: It is important to include captions for videos and provide transcripts for audio content. This enables users with hearing impairments to access multimedia. They can be also used by people who process text information better than audiovisual information or content
Color Contrast: Some of your visitors may have color blindness or other visual impairments. Find colors that provide maximum contrast between the text color and the background color. You can use tools such as Palette builder or Contrast Grid. Aim for a contrast ratio of 4.5:1 for small text and 3:1 for large text.
At TINTA, we are rooting for a more inclusive world where we all feel included and seen. We want to empower our clients to offer amazing experiences to their clients and users.
