It’s the little things that count...
Accessibility is absolutely essential for a website, particularly one working on a global scale. A website needs to look good, be easy to navigate, and load quickly in both high and low bandwidth environments and meet the needs of a diverse and varied audience. This case study shows two small changes that almost tripled the AuthorAID website's page views.
Learning from Experience
Asking the right questions is a crucial part of effective research, however, there is more to it than simply questions and answers. Research needs to be shared and that means knowing how, and being able, to express your findings is essential. This includes everything from making effective presentations, strong writing and summarising skills and knowing the audience you wish to reach.
