@ -6,7 +6,7 @@ title: Accessibility Examples
I am writing this short guide to provide practical examples of how to implement accessibility in websites. Accessibility was not emphasized during school nor is it being emphasized enough in the real world of web development. It is my hope that this article, along with many others, will encourage developers to create accessible sites from now on. It has always helped me to get practical hands-on examples of how to do things. So this guide will focus on real-world examples that I have encountered in my day to day life as a web developer.
### Skipping Navigation
In order to give visually impaired users a pleasant experience on your website, they need to be able to access content quickly and efficiently. If you have never experienced a website through a screen reader I recommend doing so. It is the best way to test how easily a site can be navigated for non-sighted users. NVDA is a very good screen reader application that is provided free of charge. But if you use the screen reader and find it helpful consider making a donation to the development team. The screen reader can be downloaded from [nvaccess.org](https://www.nvaccess.org/download/).

To allow visually impaired users to skip to the main content of a site and avoid tabbing through all the main navigation links:
1. Create a "skip navigation link" that lives directly underneath the opening <code>body</code> tag.
