Why it matters
An accessible name is a word or phrase coded in a way that assistive technologies can associate it with a specific user interface object. Assistive technologies can then refer to the object by name, not just by type. When a link doesn’t have an accessible name, people who use assistive technologies have no way of knowing its purpose.
