Re: How to Report an Inaccessible Website - title question

Hi all - I like

How to complain about an inaccessible websites

- uses the 'how to' formulation alongside 'complain' (SEO) and

Encouraging accessibility - Approaching organizations with inaccessible 
websites

- quite positive (although not sure that people who are motivated enough 
to search out this info are motivated by positive emotions, in which 
case a negative formuilation such as 'complain' may be a better match 
for how they would express their desire).
