ADA Website Compliance Test

Have you ever tried to navigate a website that is difficult to use, hard to read, or frustrating to navigate?

It’s infuriating, right?

For those with disabilities, this is what life is like when trying to use a shockingly high number of websites. It’s no secret that the Internet is a staple in our everyday lives. It’s our number one source of information. We use it to pay bills, catch up on news, watch TV, do our banking, apply for loans, shop for groceries and more. And, just like a business’s physical locations being required to comply with physical accessibility laws, so too must their websites. But frustratingly, most don’t.

The issue of web accessibility, which is the practice of making the necessary adjustments to a website so that people with disabilities can access its content, has become a fundamental consideration for website owners. As a result, all the sites that we build and manage will be accessible.

You may ask why now?

• In recent years the legislative landscape has changed. Hundreds of thousands of business owners have received demand letters for having inaccessible websites.
• On top of that, the pandemic has made us all rely on the internet for just about everything. Society is awakening to the fact that people with disabilities have a right to equal access to all websites.
• Our main motivation for taking this initiative is simply to look out for your interests and make sure that your website is up to date in an ever changing web ecosystem.
