Clearer websites. Better experiences.
Clir Cymru checks your website for things that could make it harder for people to read, navigate, enquire or book. It shows you where those things appear, helps you see your website in different ways, and gives you practical guidance on what to do next.
Everything below is a real Clir result from a real check of mwtcymru.co.uk, the website of MWT Cymru, the team behind Clir.
Clir shows a picture of your own page as most visitors see it, next to approximations of how it may appear with different types of colour vision. If a booking button or a price fades away in the second or third picture, that is worth knowing.
The page as most visitors see it.
The most common type, around 1 in 12 men.
Rarer, but blues and greens can blur together.
Each recommendation shows the wording Clir found, the colour used now and a colour you could try. How do I fix this? gives plain steps for the way your website is built. If it is not something you want to do yourself, add it to your website provider list.

Every recommendation is written for a business owner. The technical detail stays in the report for whoever looks after your website.
The words Marketing Guides are set in a pale grey on a white background, so the letters are only slightly darker than the page behind them.
We found this in 1 place on this page.
Why this may matter
Pale grey text is hard for older eyes, for visitors with reduced vision and for anyone reading on a phone in bright sunlight.
What you can do
Use a darker grey for this text so the words stand out clearly against the white background.
You may be able to change this yourself in your website's colour or theme settings.
Clir spots things that repeat across your website, so you can deal with the cause rather than working through every page individually.
Check my websiteSite-wide improvement
When something sits in your template, Clir groups it once and tells you how far it reaches, so one change may improve many pages.
Some changes may be simple enough to do yourself. Others need whoever looks after your website. Clir separates them for you and can create a clear brief to send to your website provider.
You may be able to do this
Wording, picture descriptions, headings and page names you can usually edit yourself.
Website provider brief
Clir gathers the technical items into one document you can download and send on, with the detail your provider needs.
Clir does not only look at the technical side of your website. It also looks for practical information visitors may need before they book or travel, such as parking, arrival details, food needs, facilities and what to expect when they get there.
These are suggestions, not faults.
