I’ve worked within the digital industry for over 25 years now, and while it’s still my passion, there have been some things that just haven’t sat well with me. Why aren’t accessibility and environmental considerations the ’standard’ and seem to be the ‘obscure’ within modern digital practices?

Do you know if your website is currently inclusive towards the 𝟮 𝗺𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗯𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗱 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗨𝗞? How about the 𝟯 𝗺𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗰𝗼𝗹𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗯𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗱 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲? Or the 𝟮.𝟴 𝗺𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗴𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗮𝘀 neurodivergent?

How about digital sustainability? Do you know how much monthly CO2 your website produces? Bnode helps by approaching your marketing with strong ethics at heart to help you be more inclusive towards your current and potential new customers, and all while reflecting the type of company that you are.
