Why It Is Important to Have an Accessible Website<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

First and foremost, you should be aware that an accessible website is not only intended for people with a disability. Quite the contrary \u2013 an accessible website makes information on the Internet as widely available as possible for everyone<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Millions of people have no access or only limited access to content due to accessibility issues on the Internet. With an accessible website, you not only help many people to live a more independent life, but also expand your target group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Persons over 60 years of age<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n

According to the Demography Portal of Federal and State Governments<\/em> (Demografieportal des Bundes und der L\u00e4nder)<\/em>, the proportion of over 60-year-olds in the German population will rise to 38% by 2050. This is not meant to imply that senior citizens are dependent on easy read or that everyone over 60 needs a reading aid. Nevertheless, certain abilities decline with age. For instance, motor skills or the perception of colors and low contrast. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

A 2021 survey by the Federal Statistical Office (Statistisches Bundesamt)<\/em> recorded some 300,000 people with a visual impairment, around 1 million people with a mental or intellectual disability and approximately 700,000 people with a cerebral dysfunction in Germany. In addition, the number of people with temporary disabilities fluctuates each year.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Learning difficulties or limited language skills<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n

People with learning or reading difficulties (dyslexia, phonological dyslexia or ADHD) benefit just as much from an accessible website as people with limited language skills. For migrants in particular, the Internet is seen as a gateway to the world. This is the result of a study by the ARD\/ZDF-Medienkommission<\/em>: \u201cMigrants and the Media 2011.\u201d According to the study, the majority of migrants in Germany prefer to use German-language media.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
