Accessibility Analysis , Why we all fail ?

[benevolent001]

Dear Friends

A very Good morning to you. I hope you are doing well and enjoying each moment of your life.

I need your help in research i am doing on Accessibility Problems faced by disabled people around the world and webmasters concerns for implementing accessibility over websites

About 97% of websites fail to meet the most basic requirements for accessibility.

Global Statistics suggest that:

• Worldwide, between 600 - 750 million people have a disability
• 3 out of every 10 families are touched by a disability

We are trying to find out why even after so may years of accessibility guidelines by W3C we are still not able to implement them in our websites.

I shall be thankful to you if you can spare 5 min of yours and complete this survey for webmasters around the world.

I thank you from core of my heart for sparing up your time in reading this long message.

One of the webmaster who participated in the survey gave us feedback , asking motive of the survey.

This work is being done as part of university research on Accessibility

What we are trying to find out from this.

* Webmasters point of view of accessibility problem. Why webmasters are not able to take up and implement accessibility guidelines in all of their work.
* What problems they are facing in implementing those guidelines?
* Does tough project timeline and money put constraints for implementing accessibility?
* Is knowledge of webmasters related to accessibility bottleneck?
* Whose responsibility does they feel in implementing Accessibility ?

I hope at the end of this process we shall be able to have answers to some of these questions.

Incase you haven't participated in the survey yet. Please spare 3-5 min of yours.

hello,
With the 20th anniversary this week of the ADA in the USA and the UK having the new Equality Bill going live in Oct 2010, Iam keen to see what the challenges are for webmasters implementing accessibility on their website. Did you publish the results of your survey?
