And since web accessibility aims to improve the web user experience for everyone, implementing accessibility best practices can indirectly contribute to better search visibility.</li> <li><strong>Enhancing content readability and structure</strong>: Good website accessibility calls for the clear, logical, and organized presentation of content – all of which correspond to SEO best practices. Structured headings (H1, H2, H3 tags), descriptive link text, and easy-to-read fonts help both human users and search engine bots navigate and understand your site better.</li> <li><strong>Improving image visibility</strong>: Using alt attributes to describe images not only makes your site more accessible to visually impaired users but also allows search engines to better understand and index your multimedia content. This, in turn, can enhance your <a href="https://www.searchenginejournal.com/on-page-seo/image-optimization/">visibility for image searches</a>, drawing more traffic to your site.</li> </ul><div

Website More Accessible</h2> <p>Now that you understand the link between web accessibility and SEO, let’s look at some best practices to boost your site’s usability.</p> <h3>Use Semantic HTML</h3> <p>Implementing <a href="https://www.searchenginejournal.com/semantic-html-not-a-ranking-factor-but-still-important/490436/">semantic HTML</a> tags (like “<header>” or “<nav>”) does more than just structure your content; it communicates the role and importance of each content section to both users and search engines.</p> <p>This clarity makes it easier for search engines to understand the information hierarchy of your pages and index them correctly.</p> <p>Semantic HTML elements also tell assistive technologies how to classify different parts of a page, allowing users with disabilities to navigate and interact with your site more efficiently.</p> <p>For example, a “<main>” element signifies the primary content of a page, enabling screen reader users to skip directly to the most important information.</p> <h3>Ensure Your Site Is Mobile-Friendly</h3> <p>Mobile accessibility is crucial since many users with disabilities rely on mobile devices equipped with assistive technologies to access the internet.</p><div data-total="6" id="SEJ_300x250_UnderPost_4-parent" class="content-unit sss2_sllo_o6 mmh-90-wrap"> <div class="mmh-90-inner"> <div class="mmh-90 flex-aligner"> <div data-adnumber="3" data-middle="no" data-p-slot="SEJ_300x250_UnderPost" data-slot="SEJ_300x250_UnderPost/SEJ_300x250_UnderPost_4" id="SEJ_300x250_UnderPost_4" class="sadslots"> </div> </div> </div> </div> <p>A seamless mobile user experience is also essential for SEO performance since Google now only considers the <a href="https://developers.google.com/search/blog/2023/10/mobile-first-is-here" target="_blank" rel="noopener">mobile version</a> of a site when indexing and ranking pages.</p> <p>Mobile-friendly web design practices include implementing responsive design, optimizing for touchscreen interactions, and ensuring fast loading times (more on that below).</p> <p>Use tools like Google’s free <a href="https://search.google.com/test/mobile-friendly/result" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mobile-Friendly Test</a> to evaluate your site’s mobile responsiveness and identify areas for improvement.</p> <h3>Prioritize Page Speed</h3> <p>A fast-loading website is essential for delivering a positive user experience for everyone.</p> <p><a href="https://developers.google.com/search/blog/2018/01/using-page-speed-in-mobile-search" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Page speed</a> is a <a href="https://www.searchenginejournal.com/ranking-factors/page-speed/">confirmed Google ranking factor</a>, and small increases in load times can have a major positive impact on your conversions.</p> <p>For example, a page that takes one second to load converts up to three times as much as one that takes five seconds to load.</p> <p>Optimizing images, leveraging caching, and reducing server response times are all effective methods to boost page speed and keep both your visitors and search engines satisfied.</p><div data-total="6" id="SEJ_300x250_UnderPost_5-parent" class="content-unit

target="_blank" rel="noopener">PageSpeed Insights</a> tool lets you analyze your site’s performance on desktop and mobile devices, offering specific recommendations for improvement.</p> <h3>Use Alt Attributes For Images</h3> <p><a href="https://www.searchenginejournal.com/alt-text-for-images/461262/">Image alt text</a> is critical for visually impaired users who rely on screen readers to interpret web content.</p> <p>By adding descriptive alt text to images, you ensure that all users can understand the visual content of your site.</p> <p>As we mentioned earlier, this practice also gives search engines context about your site’s visual elements, which can increase your likelihood of ranking in image-based search results.</p> <h3>Add Captions And Transcripts To Multimedia</h3> <p>Adding captions to videos and transcriptions to audio content makes your multimedia accessible to users who are deaf or hard of hearing.</p> <p>Once again, this practice not only increases the number of users who can consume your content but also makes it easier for search engines to understand what your content is about.</p><div data-total="6" id="SEJ_300x250_UnderPost_6-parent" class="content-unit sss2_sllo_o6 mmh-90-wrap"> <div class="mmh-90-inner"> <div class="mmh-90 flex-aligner"> <div data-adnumber="5" data-middle="no" data-p-slot="SEJ_300x250_UnderPost"

additional keyword relevance and improve your site’s visibility in search results.</p> <h3>Keep Content Clear And Readable</h3> <p>Clarity and simplicity in your website copy benefit users with cognitive impairments and those for whom English is a second language.</p> <p>It’s also important to ensure high contrast between text and background colors to assist those with visual impairments.</p> <p>More generally, structuring your content with clear headings, short paragraphs, and straightforward language improves comprehension for all users (and search engines).</p> <h2>Final Thoughts</h2> <p>Web accessibility and SEO are two essential components of building a successful online presence.</p> <p>By enhancing your site’s user experience for all visitors, you not only ensure compliance with ethical standards of inclusivity, but you can also significantly boost your site’s search engine visibility.</p> <p>Now it’s time to implement the web accessibility best practices outlined above so you can build a website that serves as a welcoming space for all users.</p> <p><strong>More resources:</strong></p> <ul> <li><a
