Web Standards

As the worldwide web has become so popular in recent years, it is important for it to be accessible to everyone particularly those who have difficulty with their hearing, sight, or co- ordination. Web standards were developed with these people in mind, they are a set of standards set up to advise anyone who is creating a website on how to make it more accessible for everyone. Web standards are not compulsory or a form of legislation, but their advise can prove invaluable for companies and help prevent unnecessary lawsuits for discrimination.

Check out their website w3c to view more information.
