How can you make your Google Site more accessible?

• Include alt text

• Use low-color contrast

• Avoid using text

• Use informative link text

 

Explanation:

To make your Google Site more accessible, you should:

Include alt text: Alt text is used to describe images, logos, drawings, and other graphics. Without alt text, screen reader users just hear “image.” Some images automatically include alt text, so it’s a good idea to check that the alt text is what you want1.

Use informative link text: Screen readers can scan for links, so informative link text is helpful. It’s best to use the title of the page as the linked text. For example, if you’re linking to your profile page, the link text should say “my profile,” not “click here” or the full URL1.
