Web Accessibility: Content Organization


Implement Front-loading

Commonly referred to as "front-loading", place distinguishing information at the beginning of headings, paragraphs, lists, etc. to decrease the amount of information readers must process in order to find important information. This is especially helpful for people accessing information linearly (e.g., via screen readers).

As an example, this list front-loads the links:

Web Accessibility Initiative, the definitive source for accessibility standards.

Common Look and Feel Standards, the Government of Canada’s Internet policy developed by the Treasury Board.

Bobby, a service for evaluating the accessibility of websites.
