When I was in library school learning about web design, the main thing they hammered into our heads after how to organize information so that it makes sense was accessibility. You want people looking at your website to be able to find what they need. You want people looking at your website using their text-only phone to be able to find what they need. You want people looking at your website using a screen reader to not hate you.

I don't know if this is just not something that they teach when you're learning to be a web designer, or if the business model means you can never actually DO this, but ye gods.
