Standards and Accessibility
We pride ourselves on quality, which means strict adherence to modern web
standards and careful attention to best practices that are, unfortunately, not
yet commonplace in the website development industry. The movement towards
robust Web Standards has produced quantifiable savings, return on investment,
and value. How does our approach pay off?
1. Future-Proof Your Investment
The Web is a truly universal platform, and will continue to be supported and
maintained long after other platforms have fallen by the wayside. New systems
in the future will use the Web as the foundation. When you build using
established Web standards, you are using those parts of the web most likely to
survive and thrive in the future. You can be sure that your creation will
continue to be supported by multiple vendors and devices far into the future.
Building on Web standards now protects your investment in the present and
continue to reap dividends in the future.
2. More Efficient Management
Designing across browsers and managing documents efficiently has been the bane
of the Web designer/developers existence. Following standards and practices
allows for the creation of a workflow that saves not only time, but wear and
tear on Web designers and developers working with these difficult challenges.
Using a Web standards workflow, time, money and the quality of life for the
most valuable of resources: the people on your teams can help improve this
ongoing challenge in the standards environment.
3. Search Engine Optimization
Perhaps the most compelling argument when it comes to value of standards is that
if you are writing markup, CSS and JavaScript according to the standards
ideologies, you are opening up a world of opportunity when it comes to better
SEO. The technical reason is because a semantic markup document holding
primarily linear text content allows search engines to find headers and
critical keywords within text that much faster.
4. Universal Access
Whether designing for a PDA or a visually-impaired individual, the concept of
Universal Access (which includes numerous modalities such as phones, print, web
site all coming from the same document as well as access for those with
specific disabilities) is far more easily achieved using the techniques
advocated by Web standards, making a document significantly more style-able and
scriptable for those multiple reasons.
5. Scalability
As sites grow, and they have a tendency to do so, a great deal of effort can be
saved by having an existing standards workflow and corporate/organizational
design guide. This empowers people to scale, refresh and even redesign sites
with greater ease than in non-standard design, in which each page "carries" its
design with it rather than being controlled by external style sheets. By
separating document, presentation and interaction behavior on the technical
side, a very significant amount of time, money and frustration can be avoided
as a site grows.
6. Improved User Experience
The lighter-weight files associated with standards-based design mean an improved
experience for the user. In order to be effective, sites have to be easy to use
and allow the user to get to their goal quickly. A clean infrastructure and the
smaller files typically resulting from a Web standards workflow can have a
significant impact on the load time and responsiveness of a site, keeping your
users happy customers
