Thread: Accessibility Analysis , Why we all fail ?

Dear Friends

A very Good morning to you. I hope you are doing well and enjoying each moment of your life.

I need your help in research i am doing on Accessibility Problems faced by disabled people around the world and webmasters concerns for implementing accessibility over websites

About 97% of websites fail to meet the most basic requirements for accessibility.

Global Statistics suggest that:

* Worldwide, between 600 - 750 million people have a disability
* 3 out of every 10 families are touched by a disability


We are trying to find out why even after so may years of accessibility guidelines by W3C we are still not able to implement them in our websites.

I shall be thankful to you if you can spare 5 min of yours and complete this survey for webmasters around the world.

I shall be happy to give accessibility analysis report for your website as token of thanks for completing this short 3-5 min survey.

I thank you from core of my heart for sparing up your time in reading this long message.

With Best Wishes for you and your family


And I request to moderators , if it seems fine to you and if is within forum guidelines can we make this thread sticky ?

Thank You

One of the webmaster who participated in the survey gave us feedback , asking motive of the survey.

This work is being done as part of university research on Accessibility

What we are trying to find out from this.

* Webmasters point of view of accessibility problem. Why webmasters are not able to take up and implement accessibility guidelines in all of their work.
* What problems they are facing in implementing those guidelines?
* Does tough project timeline and money put constraints for implementing accessibility?
* Is knowledge of webmasters related to accessibility bottleneck?
* Whose responsibility does they feel in implementing Accessibility ? Are they just trying to pass the ball?

I hope at the end of this process we shall be able to have answers to some of these questions.

Incase you haven't participated in the survey yet. Please spare 3-5 min of yours.
