Summary:
Accessibility experts optimize site code for screen readers. SEOs optimize site code for search engines. In both cases, we’re optimizing so crawlers can understand the content of page and the context of its elements, and oftentimes we’re optimizing the same tags. Accessibility optimization is a different ballgame than SEO, but when they overlap, how can we play well together, to satisfy the needs of both screen readers and search engines?
