Hi fayaz, W3c has defined some guidelines for web accessibility under the aegis of Web accessibility Initiative (WAI), for details visit http://www.w3c.org/wai
Generally speaking, for blind persons there should be text descriptions for the images on a page, which is done using the alt attribute for the img element. Img element is used in webpages to add images to the page. For hearing impaired there should be text description for any audio output. Another aspect is to add proper descriptions for fields, so that a screen reader can read it. And one more suggestion (which may not be part of WAI guidelines) is to use heading tag for all major navigation elements such as heading and subheadings there are 6 heading tags, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5 and h6. Same as google uses to show each element of your search items.
