accessibility helps SEO

Making sure that your site is fully accessible to all users, not just human but also software users such as search engine spiders will help with your search engine results. Accessibility is essential and not something that you should take lightly, there are many reasons why someone can have trouble accessing your site and although these things may not trouble the search engine spiders it can cause a bigger problem for your human users especially those who you have gained through SEO, things such as slow loading pages will deter users from the site so things like this should be avoided by making sure that you use code that is W3C compliant.

Accessibility and SEO are important to each other, ensuring that all of your web pages are accessible is a key part of the development of any ecommerce solution and is also key to your SEO, making sure that these are accessible to the search engine spiders. Making your site fully accessible will not only help prevent users from leaving your site which in turn will help you to build your customer database but it will also help you getting your pages indexed and thus help you to improve your page rankings.
