October 08, 2013 |   1 minute read [Content Creation](https://blog.tangiblewords.com/topic/content-marketing-strategy), [Tangible Words](https://blog.tangiblewords.com/topic/tangible-words), [Alysha Dominico](https://blog.tangiblewords.com/topic/alysha-dominico) ![Website Content Accessibility - Guidelines all Companies Must Follow!](https://blog.tangiblewords.com/hubfs/Untitled%20design%20(41)-png.png) We're going to be building websites together and we need to make sure we enter this new era of "accessibility" guidelines together. ## Website Content Accessibility Resources One of Tangible Word's clients is the Council of Ontario Universities, and they have been leading the way with Accessibility to help Universities make their teaching content and [website content](https://blog.tangiblewords.com/why-you-shouldnt-buy-design-development-and-website-content-from-one-company) accessible. They have put together some exceptional resources to help you make your website content accessible. **You can access this Web building Accessibility tip-sheet** as well as the rest of the Council's[** resources **](http://web.archive.org/web/20141011003049/http://www.cou.on.ca:80/policy-advocacy/accessibility/accessible-toolkit-homepage/quick-reference---helpful-information)if you want to have a look around their website for more information. As of January 1st, 2014, large organizations in the private and non-for-profit organizations needed to ensure that their websites were accessible, and new accessibility requirements in website development continue to be made today. Remember your web developer should set up your website to be accessible. If they don't, pick a company that will and make sure you add this criteria to your RFP. Better yet, hire Tangible Words to craft your RFP first to ensure all your website needs are met.   If you would like to discuss what your website content accessibility responsibilities are, please do not hesitate to contact Alysha by **[email](https://www.tangiblewords.com/contact)** or phone ( **1-416-779-7407**) [![Sales Growth Checklist CTA button image](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/2504218/28a599cf-2a5d-4cad-a891-c7b4e36e8b37.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/2504218/28a599cf-2a5d-4cad-a891-c7b4e36e8b37) ## Most Popular Blogs [![Want to Balance Work and Family?
