What is Accessibility & Usability?

It refers to the professional practice of ensuring websites are usable and accessible by all individuals, regardless of their ability or disability. Correctly developed sites ensure everyone has equal access to information and functionality.

 

WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) Compliance.

We work with businesses to determine the appropriate level of compliance required by WCAG, (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) for their business type or industry sector.

According to the WCAG, some businesses are required to ensure all individuals can access to the website's functionality. This is especially true of Government websites, Financial institution websites, Health information websites and Emergency websites.

Once we have determined the appropriate level of compliance required; we ensure that the website is created to comply with the relevant guidelines, whilst making sure the appropriate tools and training resources exist for staff, in turn ensuring that any future enhancements or modifications to the website comply with the WCAG requirements.

By ensuring the content of your website is available and accessible by all individuals, you'll also benefit from excellent public relations, increased website traffic and conversions, increased business enquiries and sales, business exposure and promotion of your company as a diverse, understanding and thoughtful organisation.
