Color Contrast Checker Use descriptive links The purpose of descriptive links is to provide users with the right context of where the link is taking them. With a screen reader, users can navigate from link to link and that is why providing links that make sense to them is of vital importance. In most cases, the link text is already in your content, you just need to highlight it. Try to avoid words such as "click here" or "here" as this can be confusing for people who use a screen reader. Dive into the WCAG Descriptive Linking Guidelines for more information on this. Be careful with fonts When it comes to font accessibility, keep in mind: Use real text instead of text in graphics Use simple, easily readable fonts Have a limited number of fonts Make sure you have enough contrast between text and background Stay away from small font sizes Use relative units for font size Limit the use of font modifications such as bold, italic, and ALL CAPITAL LETTERS Don't rely on the appearance of the font alone to convey the meaning of your content Do not use flashing or moving textNot only is it vital to use alt text for images, but it should also be accurate and as good as your content for regular users. Even if you don't want to include all the details of the image, it is important to include the most important information about the image and to avoid images that are too decorative and cannot be represented correctly in the alt text . Wrap To conclude, using the Internet for most people is a breeze, but not everyone can access it without the help of screen readers and voice technology.That's why it's crucial to ensure the best experience for everyone who visits your WordPress site, with a thorough audit that will make the site compliant with W3C and WordPress accessibility guidelines. Equal access for all is the only web access!
