Web Standards
The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), along with other groups and standards bodies, has established technologies for creating and interpreting web-based content. These technologies, which we call “web standards,” are carefully designed to deliver the greatest benefits to the greatest number of web users while ensuring the long-term viability of any document published on the Web. Please see the sidebar for details.
Designing and building with these standards simplifies and lowers the cost of production, while delivering sites that are accessible to more people and more types of Internet devices. Sites developed along these lines will continue to function correctly as traditional desktop browsers evolve, and as new Internet devices come to market.
Government Legislation
The government has set directives that determin how web sites should be set up and designed. These follow the basic standards set out by the W3C which allow disabled people to be able to get to the information provided on your site.
Because of this we have developed the techniques needed to provide standard compliant web sites that are accessible to all. Most of our site are written in XHTML 1.0 and validate with the W3C validator. If you are interested in finding out more, having a site designed or your existing site re-designed please get in contact with us.
