When it comes to digital experiences, accessibility matters—not just for compliance, but for people. At Cybernautic, we believe the web should be usable and inclusive for everyone, including individuals with visual, motor, cognitive, or auditory impairments.
What Does “Accessible” Actually Mean?
In the context of your website, accessibility means ensuring that people of all abilities can easily navigate and interact with your content. This includes using screen readers, keyboard navigation, and other assistive technologies.
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), along with WCAG 2.1 and Section 508 Guidelines, outlines best practices and standards for digital accessibility. While it’s not technically illegal for your site to be inaccessible, businesses across industries are seeing a steady increase in litigation from individuals who experience barriers on non-compliant websites.
From 2019 to 2020 alone, ADA-related web accessibility lawsuits rose by 23%. High-profile brands like Target, Amazon, Bank of America, and Five Guys have all faced legal action for failing to meet these guidelines—and smaller businesses aren’t immune.
So… Is My Website ADA Compliant?
If your website doesn’t currently have accessibility features in place, it’s likely not fully compliant with ADA or WCAG standards. In fact, most websites aren’t unless they’ve taken specific action to get there.
At Cybernautic, we offer accessibility solutions designed to protect your business and enhance your users' experience. The best place to start is with our Accessibility Widget, which instantly makes your site more inclusive.
