Abstract

Physical disability is one of the significant concerns that hamper individuals to access the web easily. Most of the physically disabled people cannot use technology because of the limitation of accessibility tools and techniques. It is required that the websites should be made compliant with the requirements of every citizen in a country; that’s why they should cater to the needs of the differently-abled citizens as well. Features have to be introduced in the websites so that they are easy to use, readily accessible, understandable, and convenient to everyone including best practices/standards and global innovation techniques. At times, accessibility is confused with providing solutions to disabled people, but the fact is accessibility is not only for differently-abled people, but it’s also there for everyone. The matter is every person needs accessibility and uses it when in need.
