The websites I looked at had different types of colours that represent something that is associated to the products and events they are advertising. The Live Clothing website uses a black colour as its background colour. It also uses a white colour that is presented as smoke polluting the surface area. The use of white smoke polluting the air is to present the sense of something new and elegant that everyone desires.
On the website of Paintball we have the use of white colour for the background. The colours presented create a sense of adventure in their own ways to attract the clients. E.g the colour red is used to represent a hot deal/ the latest exclusive products that Paintball is offering.
On the website of UWA there is a variation in the use of colour. The website contains black and white colours as the customary colours of the website whilst there are sparkling blue and dark orange colours to represent the latest exciting news that is coming to UWA.
The website of white pages has mild green and dark blue colours. These colours represent that the company white pages means serious business and would love to do business with you. There is also the use of red, white and light blue colours to welcome the online users to the website. The friendliness of these colours shows that everyone is welcome to use the website.
The website of The Jane Goodall Institute has a dark red colour that represents the terror that some animals experience in the wildlife. The colour light gold is to represent that some people really care about the well being of these animals and want to help these animals enjoy themselves in the wildlife.
The website of Bobjane T mart uses blue as its background colour. The yellow colour on the website is to show serious business of the deals that are present at Bobjane T mart. There is also the use of sparkling red, yellow and white colours that show the best products that are on offer at Bobjane T mart.
On the website of myer there is the use of a light blue colour to encourage people to take a break from their workplaces and just relax. Myer is a website that is all about wearing good clothes that make you feel good about yourself therefore the colours just remain white and light blue throughout the website.
Validating a website is the process of ensuring that the pages on the website conform to the norms or standards defined by various organisations. Validating a website can be achieved by ensuring that your website complies with the standards accepted by most web designers. As a result Validators can be able to detect problems in your web page and style sheet and therefore you can improve the things that your website lacks.

Website Design Techniques Blog 16
To ensure someone with a sight disability can use a website a narrator to explain the information for the visually disabled person. The narrator on a website should explain the information in a deep manner that makes the visually disabled person understand what they are hearing. Thus the narrator should have a clear sophistication of expression.
To ensure that a person who has a hearing disability can use a website there are so many ways to help them use a website. The first way is by presenting th visual site of all the products and information. The other way is that if there is a video advertisement on a website, everything that is said by the actors should appear in written form for the person with a hearing ability to read it through.
If someone has a physical disability they can use the website if there is a touch screen. If there is a touch screen, a physically person can use anything to click on what they want on a website without having to worry about using a mouse to click or type on anything. For people with learning disabilities, it is recommended that websites should be designed with the ease of use.
The ease of use in a website is by having the simplicity of language on a website and provide information in a way that provides users with enough time to read and use content. Therefore websites that target every age group and every class of people as their target audience should have the ease of use and good technology designs that allow people to with disabilities to use the website.

Inclusivity
A web should be designed in an inclusive manner so as to create a user frienldy environment for everyone despite their disabilities. These disabilities might include visual, auditory, physical, speech, cognitive, language, learning and neurological disabilities. The other reason to be inclusive in web design is it is not always about how the disablities that arte visual or neurological but the disabilities might also be aging or sometimes there is not ease of use in the design of the website.
Therefore for the web content to cater for everyone no matter their disabilities should be designed in a way that has ease of use. The other ways to make a website user friendly is to have a narrator for the visually disabled, a touch screen website for the physically disabled and a the simplicity of language in the web content. The other technique to designing a website is that designers should avoid posting extremely bright coloured pictures on a website so as to cater for people who are colour blind. If we really look at it many people have disabilities that can be sensitive to the use of technology therefore a website should be inclusive to cater for everyone's needs.
