Why Websites Need to Improve Accessibility
Make the internet a better place
We all have a responsibility to make the internet a better place for everyone. By implementing accessibility best practices on our websites, we can ensure that websites and applications are accessible to everyone regardless of their capacity. This means that people with physical, sensory, cognitive, or developmental disabilities can have equal access the same content and services as everyone else.
- 1 in 4 Americans live with a disability — don't turn away 25% of your online visitors 1
- 96.3% of home pages have detectable WCAG 2 failures 2
Avoid potential legal issues
Websites owned by businesses, organizations and government entities are required to comply with certain standards of accessibility. Failure to comply with these standards can result in lawsuits or demand letters from individuals or organizations representing those with disabilities. It is important for public businesses, organizations and government entities to be aware of the requirements for website accessibility so that they can avoid potential legal issues.
- In 2022 alone, a total of 8,694 ADA Title III lawsuits were filed in federal courts 3
- National Federation of the Blind v. Target Corporation, defendant agreed to pay damages totaling $6 million USD 4
Optimize your search engine rankings
One way to improve a website’s SEO is by following web accessibility standards. This includes using alt text to provide descriptive information about images, using headings to structure content and make it easier to read, adding anchor links for navigation between pages and sections of your site, creating sitemaps for search engine crawlers, and optimizing the navigation structure of your site.5 All these steps will help improve the accessiblity of your website and make it easier for search engines to index your content.
