Accessible Web Sites are important for all types of web sites.

15 – 30% of the general population have functional limitations that can affect their ability to use technology products (http://isoc.org/briefings/002)
Accessibility helps those who:
  • Cannot use a mouse (only have access to keyboards)
  • Are blind
  • Have other vision impairments
  • Are Deaf
  • Are Color Blind.
