What Is Web Accessibility?
Web accessibility means designing and building your website so that people with visual, hearing, motor, or cognitive disabilities can fully use it. This includes readable text, keyboard navigation, screen reader compatibility, and more.
Why Accessibility Is Essential
- Inclusion: Make sure your site works for everyone, regardless of ability.
- Legal compliance: Regulations like the EU Accessibility Act and WCAG guidelines are becoming mandatory.
- SEO benefits: Search engines prefer accessible content structures.
- Better UX: Clear structure and navigation improve usability for all visitors.
Common Accessibility Features
- Alt text for images
- Proper heading structure (H1-H6)
- Contrast between text and background
- Keyboard-friendly navigation
- Readable fonts and sufficient font sizes
Does My Site Need to Be Accessible?
Yes. Not only is it good practice — it’s often legally required. Plus, it shows your company cares about inclusive communication and design.
