Working to Make the Web Accessible and Usable By All

Avtec Media Group strives to develop sustainable “open-source” methods in web site development. We see the Web as an open platform for individuals and organizations to communicate and interact without the boundaries or limitations defined by their device, browser or bandwidth.

What is Sustainable Web Design?

Sustainability, in a broad sense, is the capacity to endure. In ecology, the word describes how biological systems remain diverse and productive over time.

Sustainable web design is the practice of designing a web site so it serves its purpose indefinitely without a significant negative impact on its owner  or its users.  To create the potential for long-term maintenance and perpetual “well-being” of a web site, we design sites to be accessible and usable by all regardless of the user’s type of computer operating system, browser, monitor resolution, or internet connection speed.

Why Choose Sustainable Web Design?

If you want your web site to be equally accessible by all and endure the test of time and technology, contact us about our sustainable web design solutions.

We’ll set you up with the tools you need to manage your website easily without relying on someone else to manage it for you.

Through sound design practices using W3C-standards-based XHTML and CSS programming, we create websites that look great and work flawlessly.

Open-Source Solutions

Avtec Media is an “open-source” solution provider, i.e., a solution that doesn’t contain any proprietary coding or software. This means your website is editable by anyone and doesn’t require any special tools or software. Having an open-source web site means it will stick around even if your web designer doesn’t.

Sustainable websites that are universally accessible without requiring users to download any special software or “plug-ins” beyond what is available on every computer sold in the market today. Whether your website visitors have the latest high-tech computer and lightning-fast connection speed or an old, dying laptop on a dial-up connection, they should still share the same experience on your web site. Ultimately, we believe that individuals should not be dependent on a particular web browser or operating system in order to view a website as it was intended. We want everyone to share the same experience and communicate on an equal level regardless of whether they are a student in a small village in east Africa or a corporate executive in a high-rise building in New York city.
