The check sheet

The check sheet is a table with a heading for each check and each firm. Every checkbox has a label naming the check and the firm, so a screen reader announces exactly what you are ticking. The summary of outstanding checks appears in an area that is announced when it changes. The table sits in a scrolling area you can reach with the Tab key and scroll with the arrow keys.

The five checks and the ring

The five checks on the home page are ordinary expandable sections. The ring beside them is a meter with a label, reporting how many checks you have opened. It is decoration for sighted users and information for screen reader users; nothing depends on seeing it.

Tables, images and motion

All tables have header cells, and wide ones scroll rather than squeeze. Diagrams have written descriptions, and the facts they show are also in the text. The ring's sweep and other small transitions stop if your device is set to reduce motion.

Printing

The check sheet prints without the site's menus and forms, so the printed copy is just the table and your notes.

Reporting a problem

Use the form below with the page and what happened, and the assistive technology you use if you like. SEO-DONS LTD reads every message and replies by email.

Keyboard use

Every link, button, expandable section and form field can be reached with the Tab key, and the focus outline stays visible. On the check sheet, the tick boxes and name fields follow the table firm by firm, and the print and clear buttons are ordinary buttons with text labels.

Notes you type on the check sheet

Firm names and ticks on the check sheet are kept only in your own browser, so they survive a reload; nothing is sent anywhere. On a shared computer, press Clear when you have finished.

Colour, zoom and diagrams

Text and buttons use colours chosen for strong contrast. Pages reflow when zoomed, apart from wide tables, which scroll inside their own box. Diagrams are images, so they lose sharpness if enlarged; everything they show is also written in the text beside them. If one causes you a problem, tell us which.
