Accessible Web Design: Why Is It So Important?
You want lots of people visiting your website, right? That means it’s got to be user-friendly! So, what can you do to make your website more accessible?
Ask someone to imagine their nightmare scenario and you’ll probably get a graphic description of gore, or a tale of extreme social awkwardness. Whilst I can definitely relate to the latter, my nightmare scenario would be very different from most: it would be a world without words.
From the lyrics that make up our favourite songs, to the stories we read before bed, words are everywhere. We are constantly taking in words, whether we’re hearing, reading, signing, speaking or writing them – and they aren’t just pointless sounds or random letters on a page. Words have power.
How many times have you read a delicious-sounding description of a meal and felt your mouth begin to water? How often – be honest, now – have you read something whilst scrolling through social media and felt your blood pressure reach boiling point?!
Words have the potential to amuse, enrage, inspire and ignite curiosity. If they can do all of those things – and more – it’s unsurprising that we should choose them wisely.
Did you know that when a visitor clicks onto your homepage, you have mere seconds to grab their attention, before they’re at risk of “bouncing” from your site entirely? That makes the text they find there even more important.
It’s not just online, either. When it comes to picking the right words to represent your organisation or event, the stakes are high. Striking the right tone is crucial; nobody’s likely to get excited about an upcoming concert if the press release is drier than a desert, after all…
That’s where Little Bird Creative come in. We take the time to get to know the people behind the organisations and events we work with, ensuring that the copy written for you will truly reflect what you’re all about. Looking for regular, conversational blog pieces for your website? We’ve got you covered. Need engaging text for your website? We can help there, too! Whatever your wordy conundrum, we’re here to help you solve it.
Let Little Bird Creative take the stress out of copywriting and we’ll produce content that you’ll be proud to show off to the world.
Say goodbye to uninspiring words.

Summer will be here before you know it. Is your organisation ready to make the most of it?!
These days, you can find anything you want online – not just quickly, but cheaply. Want a new website? Dozens
Ever had one of those days where all it takes is one person saying the wrong thing to totally push you over the edge? What about the reverse, where a kind word turns your mood around completely? The tone we take with others – and they with us – has a far greater impact than we might think. But what about your organisation’s tone of voice?
