Why is accessibility important?

Accessibility is important to ensure everyone can use the Internet. Some people find it difficult to interact with computers. They may have sight or hearing problems, a physical or learning disability, or just be inexperienced or afraid of the technology. Building a website that is not accessible to everyone is like building a shop without a door. There may be plenty inside, but there's no way to get in.
