Is your website accessible to all? That is - can any user access the information on your site? Does that include disabled users, older users, and those using assistive technologies? Tools like clear user experience, accessible web design, bright color contrasts, and alternative text can reduce accessibility barriers.
New standards (and lawsuits) on web accessibility require that businesses know how their site stacks up. Web accessibility focuses on inclusivity and removing barriers for people with disabilities that might prevent their interactions with or access to websites and mobile applications. Although the law requires organizations to comply with certain accessibility practices, many sites aren’t accessible today.
As lawsuits increase for being in violation of the ADA law, businesses look to make these changes.There are many benefits to increasing accessibility. In addition to social and ethical values, there are business reasons. More accessible websites have better results on search engines, better web page performance, and increased revenue.
