Make your website easier to navigate for every visitor, including keyboard users and anyone relying on assistive technologies. In this quick accessibility tutorial, you’ll learn why every site needs a “Skip to Content” link and how to add one in just a few simple steps.

A Skip to Content link is a site-wide accessibility mechanism required by WCAG guidelines. It lets users bypass repeated elements that appear on every page — usually your global header or menu — so they can jump straight to the main content. This improves keyboard navigation, supports screen reader usability, and creates a smoother experience for all users.

In this video, you’ll learn:
• What a Skip to Content link actually does
• Why it matters for accessibility and usability
• How to add one to your site in a few easy steps
• How it can improve overall user experience and SEO

Whether you build sites for clients or run your own online business, adding a Skip to Content link is a simple upgrade that makes your site more inclusive, more intuitive, and more enjoyable to use.
