What is ADA compliance?

One in every five people has some form of physical or hidden disability that might make accessing online content difficult. Any person living with disabilities is affected by the lack of assistive technologies and non-adapted means of communication. Your online content should guarantee equal opportunities for all your visitors.

Most countries have enforced laws that protect the civil rights of disabled people, prohibiting discrimination and ensuring a barrier-free environment in all aspects of life, including online websites. The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) are two of several web standards (and the industry standard for website accessibility) that exist to help you keep your website accessibility compliant to a broader range of persons with disabilities.

Accessibility focuses on how a disabled person accesses or benefits from a site, system or application. Accessibility is an important part of the designing your site and should be considered throughout the development process. Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act is the governing principle and it requires that all government information be accessible to disabled users.

An access barrier can be any element of the design or formatting that prevents users from reading and understanding your content. The people most susceptible to access barriers are those who struggle with deafness, blindness or vision impairments, color-blindness, photo-sensitivity, hearing loss, low vision, learning or reading disabilities, dyslexia, cognitive limitations, ADHD, etc.

Why you need ADA compliance?

Website ADA compliance is not an option but a necessity. Many countries, including the United Kingdom, Australia and Canada, now require WCAG compliance for all websites. The law protects disabled people against discrimination across establishments and platforms and websites are no exception to the rule. More and more often ADA website compliance lawsuits are filed and their numbers continuously grows.

If you’re an eCommerce website you’re at a much higher risk of being sued for failure to meet WordPress ADA compliance guidelines. Making sure that your website is ADA compliant puts you on the right side of the law and protects your company from serial web accessibility plaintiffs. It saves you several thousands of dollars in hiring a defense attorney and litigating an ADA web compliant case.

An ADA compliance website gives page visitors equal opportunities to access your online content and make informed decisions. ADA compliant websites make online users feel valued and respected.

ADA compliant websites increase your bottom line and promote customer loyalty. Businesses that optimize their website to cater to people with disabilities end up having a higher number of engaged visitors and consecutively higher conversion rates.

In addition to overall improved online reputation, ADA compliant websites generally get better SEO scores. That is because many SEO elements, such as image alt tags, captions, video transcription, sitemaps, text size and color contrast, overlap with ADA standards. By complying with web standards, you improve your SEO efforts and leave a positive impression of your brand with your online users and search engines.

Who needs to be compliant?

Basically everyone. If you have a website that sells products, services, information or is simply educational and informative, you should strive to make it ADA compliant and that it meets the national and international legal requirements for your region:

  • USA – The Americans with Disabilities Act
  • UK – The Equality Act
  • Europe – EU Website Accessibility Directive / European Accessibility Act
  • Australia – The Disability Discrimination Act

Contact us now to ensure your website complies with all levels of the ADA, Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG), Section 508, EN 301549, ISO/IEC 40500:2012, and WCAG 2.1 standards.
