Net-Guide Achieves RNIB Accreditation
Publish Date : 12/11/2004 11:14:00 AM   Source : Technology News Onlypunjab.com

net-guide is an internet search engine and website directory. It has been designed to be easy to use, regardless of whether or not you are blind or partially sighted. What makes net-guide unique is that all the websites in its database have been checked and rated for accessibility, so giving the visitor an idea of the ease of use of the websites returned in a search or from browsing the directories. By giving the results an accessibility rating, users have an indication of the quality of visit they can expect before going to the website.
net-progress, who are responsible for net-guide, decided that it was important to have an independent review of the search engine’s levels of accessibility.

“Whilst accessibility is the cornerstone of net-guide, we thought it was important to have the website independently audited”, said Paul Crichton, speaking on behalf of net-progress. “The RNIB were the ideal organisation to assess levels of accessibility, and the “See it Right” logo is recognised as representing the highest standards. The team are all very proud that net-guide has passed the RNIB audit, and can now display the “See it Right” logo on the home page.”

Speaking on behalf of the RNIB, Donna Smillie added, "Net-Guide's clean, accessible design makes it easy for anyone to use. When we assessed it, we found very little that needed to be changed. It was clear that a lot of thought had gone into the accessibility of the site design, and we are very pleased to issue it with our See it Right Accessible Website logo."
