Why Web Accessibility Matters
With standards like WCAG, the Accessibility for Manitobans Act, and AODA, web accessibility is crucial for reaching a broader audience, enhancing user experience, and staying compliant with legal requirements. Here's why it's essential:
- Inclusivity: Make your website accessible to people with disabilities such as visual or physical impairments.
- Compliance: Avoid costly fines and legal issues by meeting WCAG, ADA, AODA, and 508 standards.
- Better User Experience: Improve usability for all visitors, leading to higher engagement and conversion rates.

What Makes a Website Inaccessible?
Regular content updates to your website can pose a risk of making your site non-compliant. Several factors can make a website challenging to use for people with disabilities, such as:
Missing Alternative Text
Images without descriptive alt text are inaccessible to visually impaired users.
Poor Color Contrast
Low contrast between text and background colours can be difficult for people with low vision or colour blindness to read.
Keyboard Incompatibility
People with physical disabilities may rely on keyboard navigation; if your site is not optimized for this, it can be nearly impossible to navigate.
