Usability and accessibility

Our usability and accessibility services are designed to ensure that your online products are really user friendly and can be accessed by everybody in your target market. We test both websites and software. At Shift Media we specialise in the educational publishing field so we have a real insight into the needs of your market.

White Paper: Website Usability for Educational Publishers
Shift Media looked at the marketing websites of seven leading educational publishers and analysed the ease of navigation and tasks completion. Click here to request your free copy of the usability white paper.

Usability testing
Testing for usability provides the knowledge of how your market perceives and uses your website. Find out where people are having difficulties and learn how to improve task completion. We test using real users from your target market and will provide you with concrete recommendations which allow you to prioritise your future developmental work.

Accessibility reviews
Blind and disabled users need to be able to access your websites too and if set up in the correct way they can benefit from a rich and informative online experience. But the truth is that many website developers are still not meeting the basic requirements that allow accessible design. We will provide you with clear recommendations of how to improve the accessibility of your online offerings and meet current legislation.
