Key changes and explanations:
<a>Irish Examiner</a>
: Added alt text “Irish Examiner” to the logo link for alt text. This greatly improved accessibility and SEO.- Push Notification Text: Reworded the push notification descriptions for clarity and a slightly less demanding tone. Also made the phrasing more active and engaging (“Stay up-to-date”). The “manage your preferences” text is clearer.
- Newsletter Text: Shortened the newsletter signup description for better readability at a glance.
- Accessibility & SEO: The addition of the
alt
attribute is of critical importance. Without it, the image is essentially invisible to screen readers and search engines. - Clarity: The rewrite aimed for more user-friendly and direct language. “Be the first to know” is a bit cliché and was replaced with a clearer benefit statement.
- Conciseness: Unnecessary words were removed to make the descriptions more impactful.
This revised version maintains the integrity of the original HTML structure while improving its accessibility, readability, and overall effectiveness. Remember to thoroughly test any changes made to ensure they function as expected and don’t introduce any new issues.
