Here's what I advise people to do. If you're not a code nerd, don't even
try. The wheel has already been invented in the form of CMS's or Content
Management Systems. There are tons of them. Wordpress, Drupal, Joomla,
Hostbaby, etc. Find the one you want, and roll with it. Most web providers
such as Host Gator support all of these platforms, except Host Baby, which
is a host/web builder package for musicians. You're ultimate goal is not to
geek out, unless you absolutely have the chops to do so. You're a musician,
an artist, a creative thinker, a creator of content. That should be your
main objective. To get your stuff out there. The above mentioned content
management systems that I mentioned really help you do that in a quick and
easy way, and all the sites are completely accessible. If you want my
thoughts on specific CMS's, let me know. Hope this helps.

Subject: [ddots-l] website accessibility
I know some of you have your own websites on here as I do. What are the most
effective methods you've discovered for the best accessibility for us? Doing
things like: uploading our music, etc? The person who set up my website used
joomla, and I'm now learning to navigate with that, but some of it is
java-based, and jaws won't work with it. Any simpler suggestions?
Thanks.
