Why is Web Accessibility Important?

According to the World Health Organization's 2011 World Report on Disability, 15% of the world's population has some form of disability, and the number of people with disabilities is steadily increasing. As the Internet becomes an increasingly important resource in many aspects of people's lives every day, it must be accessible to everyone and provide equal access and opportunity to people with different abilities.

What is the WCAG Standard?

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) is an international standard created by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). WCAG provides a set of criteria, norms, and recommendations for making accessible web content, and it is widely adopted as a reference in the industry.

How to Make Your Website Accessible?

Website accessibility is primarily the process of web development and design using tools and technologies to facilitate the perception, understanding, participation, navigation, and interaction of a person with a disability on a website. Slow website loading, small fonts, poor contrast, and frustration when navigating a page are a nuisance to any user. But for people with disabilities, they can ultimately limit the use of the Internet.

What are WCAG levels?

WCAG 2.0 guidelines are divided into three levels of compliance to meet the needs of different groups: A (lowest), AA (mid-range), and AAA (highest). Compliance at higher levels means compliance at lower levels. For example, by complying with AA, a web page meets compliance levels A and AA. Level AA compliance is a general policy for all information on the Internet, as it is not always possible to meet all Level AAA success criteria.

How do I check that my website is accessible?

To check if your website is accessible, use the Web Accessibility Checker. This tool identifies problems and suggests improvements. Remember, accessibility is an ongoing process. Regular testing, user feedback, and updates are essential to ensure your website remains accessible to all users.

Web accessibility ensures that all people, regardless of their ability or disability, can access and use the Internet. This promotes inclusivity and equal opportunity to participate in the digital world. Web accessibility is an ethical and moral obligation and promotes the social inclusion of people with disabilities. This reflects a desire to treat everyone respectfully and give them the same rights and opportunities to access information and services. This is not just a technical requirement but a fundamental aspect of creating an inclusive and equitable online environment.
To make websites accessible, web developers and designers follow WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) published by W3C. In many regions, there are legal requirements and regulations, such as the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) in the United States or the European Accessibility Act, that mandate web accessibility compliance.
