What to change
Ask your supplier to preserve the meaningful grouping of service options or preparation steps for people using reading software, as well as in the visual layout.
A worked example
Illustrative example
A visitor exploring four contact routes can recognise them as one list and move between individual options without mistaking them for unrelated sections.


Why this matters to your practice
A recognisable list helps people understand both the number of choices and where one choice ends. This is useful for contact methods, preparation instructions and related services. Ask your supplier to show how those collections sound when read aloud by software. You should be able to hear the same grouping that appears on screen. Avoid turning every decorative line into a list item; use this structure where it helps visitors understand a real set of options or steps.
How to check the result
Accept when collections expose their meaningful grouping and order, with no extra empty items or decorative content announced as options.
A mistake to avoid
Using list structure for every row of page decoration can create needless verbosity where no real collection exists.
