Did you know it is a legal requirement in the United Kingdom for websites to use ‘alt text’ descriptions for any images (except decorative) used or embedded in your website?
Which areas do we analyse when deep proofreading text on your website?
- Images and alternative text (alt text)
- Metadata
- Google description
- Internal and external links
The latest government guidance on accessible communication formats entitled “Other best practice for print publications” point 6.2 states:
“All online images need alternative text (alt text). If you use an image to convey information that is essential to understanding the page content – for example, a diagram that explains something – include alt text that gives screen reader users the same information.”
