What is Website Accessibility?

Web accessibility for all

Digital accessibility refers to designing digital products and services that ensure equal access and opportunities for everyone. The aim is to support disabled users by incorporating features such as screen readers, subtitles, high contrast mode, voice control, page zoom, switch controls, spoken selected texts, keyboard access, focus indicators, and an accessibility-adjusted page structure.

Long-term deficiencies can significantly impact how a person interacts with their environment. For instance, an individual with one arm may struggle with tasks that typically require both hands. Likewise, a blind person must rely on alternative senses to navigate and perform daily activities.

Short-term disabilities pass as the body heals. However, they can affect a person’s ability to perform specific tasks on their digital devices, just like a permanent disability.

Situational barriers can create disabling conditions that obstruct the use of a digital device. Examples include being unable to see a screen because of sunlight or hearing audio due to local noise. Many assistive tech solutions designed for people with disabilities also support situational accessibility that is useful for everyone.

Useful info on accessibility

 

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) are international standards that help design web content accessible to all users, including those with various disabilities.

Website accessibility is a powerful tool that empowers all users, regardless of their abilities, with equal access to information and services online. This promotes inclusion and equal opportunities, making every user feel valued.

Alt text is a textual description added to web page images so that users with visual impairments who use screen readers can understand them.

Website accessibility benefits all users, including older adults, people with permanent or temporary disabilities, and users with limited access to technology.

Testing website accessibility is a user-centric process that involves various tools and techniques, such as automated checkers, manual reviews, and user testing with individuals with disabilities. This approach ensures that the needs of all users are at the forefront of the design process.

ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) labels are attributes developers use to significantly enhance the accessibility of web applications for users with screen readers. By implementing these labels, developers contribute to a better web experience for all users.

In many countries, there are legal requirements for web accessibility, such as the American ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) or the European Directive on the accessibility of websites and mobile applications.

Color contrast is the ratio of brightness between two colors used on a web page, and it is important for ensuring text readability for users with color blindness or visual impairments.

Customized navigation includes a simple and predictable page structure, the use of descriptive links, and the ability to navigate the page using a keyboard.

Inclusive design means creating digital solutions that consider all users' diverse needs and abilities, thereby improving the user experience for everyone.
