Sometimes, when we use Google Search, the returned results are so many, that we think we entered a wrong keyword.
This situation was created because Google is one of the biggest search engines on the Internet, with millions of sites registered. So, what can we do to find exactly what we're looking for? The answer is Google Accessible Search.

"Accessible Search is an early Google Labs product designed to identify and prioritize search results that are more easily usable by blind and visually impaired users. Regular Google search helps you find a set of documents that is most relevant to your tasks. Accessible Search goes one step further by helping you find the most accessible pages in that result set," as Google says.

"Accessible Search is a natural and important extension of Google's overall mission to better organize the world's information and make it universally accessible. Google Accessible Search is designed to help the visually challenged find the most relevant, useful and comprehensive information, as quickly as possible.

In the past, visually impaired Google users have often waded through a lot of inaccessible websites and pages to find the required information. Our goal is to provide a more useful and accessible web search experience for the blind and visually impaired," the company also mentioned.
