4. Provide digital content in multiple, accessible formats. Digital accessibility doesn't end with your website. To provide an inclusive experience, you must make all of your content and multimedia files accessible. For example: • Provide text alternatives for images. • Offer closed captioning and transcripts on videos. • Create audio descriptions of your text files. • Remediate your PDFs so that they are properly tagged and compliant with relevant standards. 5. Keep persons with disabilities in mind when you develop your site. During the development phase, look for barriers that will make it difficult for persons with disabilities to navigate your site and find information. For example: • Use large, readable fonts. • Ensure that all of your links are clear and visible. • Offer multiple ways for users to navigate throughout your site. • Allow users to interact with your site using just their keyboard. 12 | essentialaccessibility.com
