Standards present a clean consistent interface

Standards are about building sophisticated, beautiful sites that will work as well tomorrow as they do today.

Standards

With the increasing sophistication of the web, websites need to work better, faster, more ubiquitously and more democratically. They also need to work with future software upgrades and other changes in the computing environment. The key to meeting all of these requirements is standards conformance. This implies conforming to:

Accessibility

Websites should be accessible to people suffering from visual or motor impairment, not only for reasons of inclusiveness but also because in the UK, it is a legal requirement. All new sites that we produce conform to Level 1 or higher of the WAI (Web Accessiblity Initiative) Guidelines. It is not an extra - it is an integral part of what we do.

Usability

We aim to build highly usable web interfaces which give users the answers they seek via an intuitive, uncluttered and easily navigated interface in which they never feel lost or unsure of how to proceed. Sites are user-tested on completion.
