We are a UK web design company, based in Northampton. Contact us now on 0207 193 2755 (or +44 207 193 2755 if you live outside the UK) if you want to discuss anything related to web design and e-commerce!
While we tend to secure mainly UK-based web design work, we do provide a web design service to those outside the UK too. For bespoke web design work, we only ask for balance payments to be made when a project is complete to the customer's satisfaction. If we ever ask for money 'up front', we do so only if we offer a 100% money back guarantee on it.
Alternatively, fill in your details below and we'll be in touch with you by e-mail shortly.

Accessibility also concerns itself with browsers - a website can be inaccessible to everyone using an older browser, for example - because it was created with 'broken', invalid HTML that older browsers cannot render (newer browsers tend to be more forgiving).
The first step to developing an accessible site is to use valid HTML/XHTML. This gives you a starting point that at least ensures all of the images have text descriptions, and that the HTML should render OK in older browsers (there's still no absolute guarantee though, with the variances between the browser versions).
This first step does not give you an accessible website.
puresilva websites have been designed to be as accessible as possible in terms of having valid HTML and clear layout - with default settings giving contrasting font colours and backgrounds, as well as users being able to change font sizes and TAB between navigation.
However, content is a big part of accessibility. If your target market is Japan, yet you write your website only in English, you will be making your site inaccessible to all of your website visitors who cannot read English. This exaggerated example highlights how important content is in terms of accessibility. According to usablenet.com, content should be:-
"presented in a clear and simple manner, and should provide understandable mechanisms to navigate within and between pages."
The puresilva templated versions receive free updates, so these will be kept up-to-date with all the latest accessibility guidelines.
