Use of images and multimedia objects for seniorsWeb form elementTo compensate for the probable visual disabilities of the elder users. E-business website designers must provide adequate imagery and video (if any), so their size and resolution is enough for the elderly to comprehend. The colors used in the imagery and, especially, in control elements of the website must be of sufficient contrast, and developers should test their designs on black-and-white monitor to ensure accessibility. The percentage of potentially visually challenged people among regular users is lower, so this strategy is of lower priority when designing for general users.

Stability of interfaces for seniors: Elder users generally have slower reactions, and also they shall not be distracted without a reason. The designers should limit the usage of automatic system action on a website, such as auto-changing some fields in an input form, or automatically taking user to a new location (page) on a website. The usage of distracting elements, such as animated .gif pictures or aggressive Flash animation should be also limited if possible. This strategy is somehow contrary from design recommendations for regular users, who indeed may benefit from automation of some tasks and re-directing at web pages.
