TMI Web Solutions is proud to announce the launch of 2BAccessible a website that will help bridge the gap between eCommerce and the vast untapped market of consumers with disabilities.

More than ten million Americans are visually impaired and this number is expected to grow to 30 million in ten years. While the internet is an ideal medium for these people to purchase goods and services, many websites poorly implement the established standards that would make them accessible to screen readers.

Following proper accessibility guidelines does more than just help people with disabilities navigate websites. The same standards that help screen readers parse websites also helps search engines such as Google and Yahoo! To find out how being accessible (also known as "508 Compliant") can help your website, contact the TMI Web Division at 703.505.4059
