Monthly Web Accessibility Updates

Each month through April 2027, the Strategic Communications and Marketing Team will highlight a high-impact web accessibility focus area marked for improvement across 糖心国产传媒 websites. Website owners and content points of contact (POCs) will receive clear actions to take on the pages they manage, while the Web Team continues technical remediation, tracks progress scores in Siteimprove, and shares updates as focus areas change.

October Accessibility Focus: Heading Structure 

Clear heading structure helps website visitors understand and navigate well organized web content, especially those using assistive technologies. Pages should use one clear H1 for the primary topic, followed by an H2, H3, and H4 headings in a logical order for the page. 

Website owners and POCs should: 

  • Review heading issues identified on your website in Siteimprove. 
  • Correct heading structure on pages you manage. 
  • Use one clear H1 for the primary page topic. 
  • Organize content using a logical H1, H2, H3, H4 hierarchy. 
  • Address identified heading issues no later than October 30, 2026.
