In this video, I teach you how to make links on your website accessible using the aria-label attribute in your HTML. I show you how screen readers such as VoiceOver read out a web page, and how you can use the accessibility tree in Chrome Dev Tools to check accessibility on your web pages.
If you need to display multiple links with the same text on a web page — such as 'read more' — this video helps you understand why you should be using aria labels to improve web accessibility for people who use screen readers and assistive technology on your website.
