Tag Cloud Ideas

how to make tag cloud accessible?

how many tags associated with each tag is presented or we can use a text that describe how popular is that tag.
we can just use classes to define the different sizes (we can identify there sizes explicitly using the class attribute).

use of an ordered list as the tag cloud structure, or play with voice volume when the font size changes.

screen reader user doesn't get when a size "step" has changed

sort by frequency is another solution.

Accessible Tags and Tag Clouds

It is important to make tags and tag clouds accessible, because they represent information about the use of this information amnog all users in the web.
To make tag cloud accessible we could make the screen reader read the tags according to the font size (not in the alphabetical order). Also it is important to provide the users with tags and related tags in an accessible way.
range of class names from not-popular through ultra-popular

What Are Screening Techniques?

Screening techniques are simple activities to help identify potential accessibility barriers in product designs. Most screening techniques involve interacting with a product with one or more physical or sensory abilities eliminated or modified; for example, wearing thick gloves to limit your dexterity, and wearing low vision glasses or blindfolds to limit your vision.
