3.2 meta elements

A meta element is an element that does not get displayed normally. While meta elements can specify really cool operations like automatic refresh and redirection, these elements are unfriendly to screen readers and other accessibility tools.

Instead of using meta elements, the content of a document should simply specify the document has moved to a new destination as an URL. Although this approach is not as “cool” for normal users, it is a simple change that can make the redirection page accessible to all users.
