There are quite a few:

• Your site will provide access to as wide an audience as possible.
• Your site will meet BECTA and other guidelines on public sector, educational sites.
• Your site will be easier and, therefore, cheaper to maintain.
• You can be confident that your site will continue to work in future browsers and on alternative devices

Will I be able be to update my site?
Yes, and without special software or expertise. You can upload images, text and documents on a minute by minute basis if you like, ensuring that the site content remaims fresh and alive.

Will an accessible, standards-based site cost more?
No, quite the opposite. Costing no more than a traditionally made site at the beginning, as time goes by, maintenance and hosting will certainly be no more expensiveand will probably be sigificantly

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
