Domain & Web Hosting
I searched for the top 10 most affordable and reliable hosting services
Godaddy.com was the company that I chose to purchase my domain and hosting service
The cost for my domain name was $10
The cost for my hosting service was $1.99 per month

ePortfolio
The HTML editing software was Dreamweaver CS6
The software I used for my graphics was Fireworks CS6
Camtasia 2 (Mac version) was my choice for video editing

Proper Use of Alternative Text
Graphics cannot be seen by everyone, so it is imperative to add descriptive text either within the graphic or on the page near the graphic
I created a blog to post information about accessibility
One post on my blog defines the proper use of alternative text and when and how to implement this feature.

Multi-media with Captions
I used HTML5 coding to link my videos. (This allows the video to be viewed with any browser that is not outdated).
After recording my videos, I used Camtasia to make necessary edits and add captions.
I also have a post on my blog that defines captions and subtitles.

Step 1: Contrast
Choose a background and font color that will provide a good contrast.
This will provide a more accessible document for those who may be color-blind.
Making a better product improves the quality for everyone

Step 2: Link Descriptions
Provide text for headings that accurately describes associated content. This provides a way to scan the page to figure out what is there.
Instead of “For the course schedule, click here,” simply make course schedule the link.

Step 3: Accessible Documents
Use heading levels in HTML, Word, and PowerPoint documents
Heading levels will allow screen readers to easily navigate within the document
When saving a Word document as a PDF, ensure that the “Convert headings to bookmarks” option is enabled

Step 4: Alternative Text
Alternative information is provided in place of images for users who are blind
Everyone may not have the ability to see images. Descriptive text can be alternative text or a textual explanation located near the image.

Step 5: Captions
Caption is the rendering of speech
Captions describe sound effects and other dramatics
Captions increase accessibility for the hearing impaired and also for those whose first language is not English.
I used a program called Camtasia to create captions
