Approximately one billion people globally have a disability and they can often face barriers when visiting inaccessible websites that may inhibit them from taking an active part on site. With the coronavirus pandemic transitioning the majority of individuals around the world to a predominately digital living environment - whether that be for work, school, socializing or spending – it’s become more important than ever for companies to ease any obstacles their website users may face as our lives only became further engrained in and dependent upon the worldwide web.
Awin was thrilled to discover Recite Me’s award-winning innovative assistive technology in its search to make Awin.com more accessible and inclusive, solving many challenges faced by those who have a disability. Found in the upper right-hand corner of our website in the orange ‘Accessibility Tools’ button, this easy to use software includes text-to-speech functionality (including 35 text-to-speech voices), fully-customizable styling features, reading aids and a translation tool with over 100 languages, and more. Furthermore, Recite Me works across all device types, affording all of our website visitors easy navigation of Awin.com and the content, features and functionality it provides.
Alexandra Forsch, President of Awin US: “At Awin and ShareASale, diversity and inclusion is not an initiative but core to who we are as a company and how we run our business operations. Recite Me allows us to ensure an inclusive online environment and positive user experience for all of our partners and employees visiting Awin.com. We couldn’t be more excited to also introduce such a powerful web accessibility tool to our partners during these dynamic times.”
