But have you considered that some people might not be able to access your social media posts the same way as others. People with disabilities need accessibility features to be able to fully enjoy your social media content. Here are 10 tips on how you can make your social media posts more accessible.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"w-richtext-align-fullwidth w-richtext-figure-type-image\" style=\"max-width: 1140pxpx;\">\n<div><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/env-bemyeyes-stg.kinsta.cloud\/wp-content\/wfcdnimg\/624e955e54685d34ba00a65e_Blog_Body_SoMe_Accessible_1.jpg\" alt=\"\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" \/><\/div><figcaption>Screenshot of a Be My Eyes blog post highlighting a photo\u2019s ALT Text.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>ALT Text<\/h3>\n<p>Image description, Alternative text, ALT text, or alt \u201ctags\u201d. It goes by many names, but they all mean the same thing: ALT text allows people who can\u2019t see an image to access a description of that image that can be read by their screen reader. Missing or ineffective ALT texts are one of the biggest problems in web accessibility, so always make sure to add an ALT text, especially if important information is conveyed in the image. It\u2019s not just regular photos that require an ALT text. Other types of images including graphs, text images, memes and GIFs also need an ALT text. Depending on what\u2019s pictured on the image, a good image description should:<\/p>\n<ul role=\"list\">\n<li>Describe what is on the image<\/li>\n<li>Convey the context<\/li>\n<li>Transcribe any text<\/li>\n<li>Share humor and\/or obvious meaning<\/li>\n<li>Describe colors if it\u2019s important for understanding the image<\/li>\n<li>Leave out \u2018Image of\u2019 or \u2018Photo of\u2019<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>All the major social media platforms offer the option of adding an ALT text &#8211; here\u2019s how to do it:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Facebook:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul role=\"list\">\n<li>Add your image to your post<\/li>\n<li>Click the \u2018Edit Photo\u2019 option (paint brush icon)<\/li>\n<li>Edit the automatically generated ALT text in the text box<\/li>\n<li>Save your ALT text and publish your post<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Twitter:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul role=\"list\">\n<li>Add your image to your post<\/li>\n<li>Click the \u2018Add Description\u2019 option below your image<\/li>\n<li>Add your ALT text in the text box<\/li>\n<li>Save your ALT text and publish your post<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Instagram:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul role=\"list\">\n<li>When creating your post, click the \u2018Advanced Settings\u2019 option at the bottom<\/li>\n<li>Click \u2018Write Alt Text\u2019 under \u2018Accessibility\u2019<\/li>\n<li>Write your ALT text and click \u2018Done\u2019<\/li>\n<li>Return to your post and click \u2018Share\u2019<\/li>\n<li><strong>Please note: Instagram ALT text is only available through the Instagram app<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Linkedin:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul role=\"list\">\n<li>Add your image to your post<\/li>\n<li>Click the \u2018Alternative Text\u2019 option below your image<\/li>\n<li>Add your ALT text in the text box<\/li>\n<li>Save your ALT text and publish your post<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If it\u2019s not possible for you to add an ALT text, include an image description in your caption.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"w-richtext-align-fullwidth w-richtext-figure-type-image\" style=\"max-width: 1140pxpx;\">\n<div><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/env-bemyeyes-stg.kinsta.cloud\/wp-content\/wfcdnimg\/624e95c5420e86438068d057_Blog_Body_SoMe_Accessible_2.png\" alt=\"\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" \/><\/div><figcaption>Image split in two.

On the right the words \u201cFont size\u201d written in white on a black background in four different font sizes, going from large to small.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>Color Contrast and Font Size<\/h3>\n<p>Make sure that your images have a strong color contrast, especially if your image contains text. Combinations of green\/red and blue\/yellow should be avoided, and the color contrast should be at least 4.5:1 to be accessible for people who are color blind or have low vision. For text on images you should also make sure to use an adequate font size.<\/p>\n<h3>Hashtags and Mentions<\/h3>\n<p>Capitalizing the first letter of each word of your hashtag makes it a lot easier to read &#8211; especially for people using a screen reader. #BeMyEyes is a lot easier to read than #bemyeyes, and it makes each word of the hashtag distinguishable for screen reader software.<\/p>\n<p>Another best practice is to place hashtags and mentions at the end of your post. Because screen readers read out punctuation marks, # and @ mid-post can be very disruptive.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"w-richtext-align-fullwidth w-richtext-figure-type-image\" style=\"max-width: 1140pxpx;\">\n<div><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/env-bemyeyes-stg.kinsta.cloud\/wp-content\/wfcdnimg\/624e9623ef59e16c095d4c97_Blog_Body_SoMe_Accessible_3.jpg\" alt=\"\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" \/><\/div><figcaption>Emoji keyboard on a smartphone.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>Emojis<\/h3>\n<p>Emojis are technically accessible; but, since emojis are read aloud by screen readers, you should be careful about how you use emojis. No one wants to listen to \u201csmiling pile of poo\u201d twenty times in a row or \u201csmiling face with smiling eyes\u201d on repeat, because you have added several of the same emoji. On top of that, you should refrain from using emojis made from text, eg. :), as it will be read out by each individual symbol by a screen reader and will not be translated in its entirety.<\/p>\n<h3>Videos<\/h3>\n<p>When using videos you should make sure that they are accessible for everyone by adding closed captions and video descriptions if possible. Contrary to closed captions or subtitles, video descriptions convey the important sights of the video that are not spoken. For example, if your video contains text that is not read out in the video, the video description should make sure to read out this text, so people who are blind or have low-vision can get the same understanding of the video. If you don\u2019t have the means to produce a video description as audio, at the very least you can consider typing a visual description into the description field of the video.<\/p>\n<h3>Special Characters and Formatting<\/h3>\n<p>Although it looks cool, you should avoid using special characters or formatting, as they are harder to read for people who have a low level of vision. It also interferes with screen readers that are not able to read them out as plain text.<\/p>\n<h3>Links<\/h3>\n<p>If you\u2019re including links in our SoMe posts, make sure they are descriptive so that people know where the link will take them. Many screen reader users use links to navigate, and without context a link labeled \u201cclick here\u201d is not very informative.<\/p>\n<h3>Language<\/h3>\n<p>Writing in a plain and simple language makes your post understandable for everyone, no matter their background or abilities. Language such as technical terms, slang and jargon should be avoided if possible. You should also make sure to use inclusive language, so no one feels excluded from your posts, e.g. avoiding ableist language and using gender-neutral pronouns.<\/p>\n<h3>Length<\/h3>\n<p>Keep your posts as short and precise as possible to ensure readability and retention. You should also keep your line length as short as possible, to make it easier to read and keep an overview for people using zoom features.<\/p>\n<h3>Listen to Feedback<\/h3>\n<p>Last but definitely not least, make sure that you listen and are open to feedback. It is hard to get everything right on your first try, but if you are open and listen to the feedback you receive from people who experience accessibility issues first hand, they will appreciate that you\u2019re actually making an effort. Own up to your mistakes and make sure they are improved next time, and have an open dialogue with your community.<\/p>\n<p>\u200d<\/p>\n<p>\u200d<em>Enjoyed this piece?
