What are Skip Links
Skip links are internal page links which aid navigation around the current page, rather than to completely new pages. They are mainly used by screen reader users for bypassing or ‘skipping’ over repetitive web page content. Skip links are not usually visible on a web page for sighted users as these users can easily skip over any information such as navigation to the specific content that interests them. Screen reader users, however, can not easily do so unless provided with a specific link to the main content. This article outlines what skip links are, what the issues are with current approaches, and a best-practice method of implementing them.
