By now, we've all heard about acessible web site design and how important it is to us Internet users. You may think so, too. But how can you persuade your boss, that accessibility is worth it?
There's always the argument of legal requirements for sites to be accessible, but, unless they're Yahoo! or a business of equal stature, it's pretty unlikely that this will ever affect your client. After all, there's only been one recorded instance of any legal action arising from Web accessibility issues in the entire world.
But, you care about accessibility web sites. You want all the sites you build to be as accessible as possible, and that means work. To the client, it means a higher project price. So, how can you justify the cost of accessibility?
The Business Case
There are two very good reasons why you should start to think about Web accessibility:
An accessible web site will make your client money.
An accessible web site will save your client money.
1. Your Website will be easier to manage.
An accessible Website separates the content (HTML) and presentation (CSS) of each page. Wave goodbye to tables! Now, to adjust the layout of the Website, developers only need to make changes to the CSS file, rather than amending each and every page of the site, saving considerable time (and, therefore, money).
