Best practices for accessible newsletters

  • Use meaningful subject lines: Describe the content clearly
  • Structure with headings: Use h2, h3 tags for sections
  • Descriptive link text: Avoid "click here" - describe the destination
  • Alt text for images: Describe what the image shows or conveys
  • Sufficient contrast: Text should be readable at 4.5:1 ratio
