It is possible to make a website accessible using existing tools and guidelines but you can make a much better experience if you build a dedicated edition of your website to use by screen readers.
This would be the equivalent of publishing 2 versions of your iPhone app. One highly optimized for blind people and another version for everyone else.
Although the iPhone has great accessibility an separate optimized version of your app would provide an even better user experience but that we were not allowed to do.
The idea for the text only edition was an idea that was formed by a group of blind people and was the solution they said was the optimal solution for them
- joedevon 7y agoYour approach is an antipattern. It works great for five minutes after you launch. Then you need to maintain multiple versions of the site. And inevitably the two versions start to diverge. And guess which version will get short shrift? There's even a term for this. "Separate but equal". Said sarcastically. No offense, but I recommend you research this a bit more.
