Skip to content Link

What does the Skip to content link mean?

This link, called a skip link, enables users to skip over navigation links to get to the main content of the page.

Skip links are beneficial for blind, visually impaired, and mobility impaired users, as well as people who use text browsers, mobile phones, and PDAs.

Some developers use hidden skip links, which are specifically designed for blind users. However, skip links should be visible for people who cannot use the mouse and must use tabbing to navigate websites.
