3. Meet appropriate usability and accessibility guidelines
In order to be effective, online legal information must be easy to use and accessible for all users. Issues to consider:
* If designing a new website or assessing the effectiveness of an existing one, evaluate how well the site works for the user through all stages of development, not just at the end of the process.
* Design the website so it is accessible to users with a wide range of disabilities ([http://www.w3.org/WAI/intro/wcag WCAG 2.0 Level AA standards])
* Make it easy to navigate and to find information through clear menus and search functions
* Websites need to work across all browsers, such as Firefox, Safari and Chrome
