The Ultimate Guide
to Web Accessibility
Web accessibility or digital accessibility is a practice of removing
or preventing any barriers that users may face while accessing
or interacting with a website. Making a website accessible
creates an all-inclusive environment where all users have equal
access to information and functionality.
The World Wide Consortium or W3C launched Web
Accessibility Initiative (WAI) in 1997 to guide people to
build more accessible websites.
The WAI developed Web Content Accessibility
Guidelines (WCAG) to help developers and
organizations to build an accessible website.

No surprises here, W3C is the holy grail of accessible websites. It has
everything from web accessibility guidelines to best practices for other
websites to become more accessible.
BBC offers great support for keyboard accessibility as one can easily
navigate using just a keyboard on the site. It also provides an
‘accessibility help’ link to help new screen readers and keyboard users
navigate the website with ease.
International Paralympic Committee(IPC)
The IPC committee dedicated to developing para-sport and
advocating social inclusion will surely make their website accessible to
everyone. It features a clean UI with high-quality visuals and media
that are optimized to be visible and accessible by keyboard.
