Add more landmarks\r\n\r\n<img width=\"1252\" alt=\"exc1\" src=\"https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/351842/17826132/c83fac6c-663b-11e6-97a7-a897186b059a.png\">\r\n\r\nCurrently only `navigation` can be found under the landmarks menu. We can add more for the main area, the sidebar, and the footer to make it easier to navigate in screen readers. \r\n\r\n## 2. Remove some screen reader noise\r\n\r\nI think we can hide a lot of things from screen readers, such as the horizontal rule and any decorative images.\r\n\r\n## 3. Give alt text to images, or blank alt text\r\n\r\n![image](https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/351842/17826235/a2389e24-663c-11e6-8b8e-14041f9e2324.png)\r\n\r\nSince there is not alt text on a lot of the images, I might suggest giving them some alt text. Alternatively, since the fact that it's a logo is not really important (it's more of a decorative image), we can give it a blank `alt` text so that the screen reader does not read them at all. \r\n\r\n---\r\n\r\n@bernardoamc I can totally help out with this, if you'd like! Let me know :) Thanks!\r\n\r\na11y: shortened form of \"accessibility\"\r\n"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/exercism/exercism.io/issues/comments/241761555","html_url":"https://github.com/exercism/exercism.io/issues/3066#issuecomment-241761555","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/exercism/exercism.io/issues/3066","id":241761555,"user":{"login":"edward","id":325,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/325?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/edward","html_url":"https://github.com/edward","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/edward/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/edward/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/edward/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/edward/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/edward/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/edward/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/edward/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/edward/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/edward/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2016-08-23T15:03:45Z","updated_at":"2016-08-23T15:03:45Z","body":"@Tetsuro you’re a champ for taking this on.
