Structure your website so that your content is presented in a logical order.
What you need to know
- Your website should present content in an order that makes sense to screen reader users.
- The best way to present content is in the order that most people would naturally read it–from top to bottom and left to right. For example:
- Header
- Main Content
- Sidebar
- Footer
What you need to do
- Structure your website’s content so that it reads in a logical order.
- Test your website with a screen reader (or without CSS enabled) to make sure its reading order is presented correctly.
