Can everyone use your website and the content you create, or are you excluding up to 27% of your audience?
When you focus on creating content that all people can access, regardless of their abilities, you’re working to improve your web accessibility. On the flip side, when you don’t follow some basic best practices, you’re not just excluding potential customers; you’re putting your business at legal risk.
Just a chilling fact for you - there were thousands of lawsuits filed against website owners last year for accessibility issues.
How can you improve your web accessibility and ensure your content is user-friendly every time (and get that lawsuit target off your back)?
The sad reality is that it’s a pretty simple process to make vast improvements to your website accessibility, and yet it gets neglected far too often.
Let’s break down five steps you should take when creating content for your website.
