Let’s continue our journey into the ever changing worlds of SEO and Accessibility with part II of our series. If you’ve missed Part I, please click here for Part I of the SEO and Accessibility article I’ve written.

As I’ve covered previously, the two worlds being discussed in our topic are beginning to parallel like never before. SEO professionals are seeing the real benefits of created semantically correct, accessible websites. Accessibility experts are understanding that the use of SEO techniques are not always rooted in Black hat methodology, and with properly used keyword placements and other On-Page Optimization, they will be able to reach many more users than ever before.

So with that as our foundation, let’s look today at specific techniques that will allow the SEO’ers, Accessibility / Usability Designers, and Standards Evangelists to march to the same drummer. Yes, you can become a SEO’er yourself!

Martin

Member of the GAWDs and Web Standards Group. As a member of the Web Standards Group, as well as membership in the Guild of Accessible Web Designers, I strive to achieve maximum website accessibility in my designs, while using the latest, cutting-edge eXtensible HyperText Mark-up Language/CSS markup. My sites fully validate with the W3C standards for XHTML/CSS, as well as comply with the W3C's WAI - A, AA, or AAA standards. Separation of Content from presentation and a site that fully complies with this philosophy - will reach more than just your intended audience, it'll reach everyone! Web standards at FierceStreet Networks is all about usability - XHTML for content, and CSS for presentation.

Plain Old Semantic HTML

POSH!
