If a website isn’t coded correctly, it can make it difficult or sometimes impossible for those of us with disabilities to use the site.

Making the web accessible to everyone is not only the right thing to do, but also the law.

Most business owners use technology platforms like Shopify, WordPress, Magento Square and Wix to build their sites and may not even know about these accessibility requirements or how to meet them.

Complicating the situation, searching for quick accessibility solutions can be tricky.

You may come across companies that offer to fix your website by adding their one line of code, app or widget.

However, these so-called miracle fixes called overlays often don’t live up to their claims and won’t protect you from being sued. Last year, approximately 600 businesses were sued even though they had one of these widgets installed.

One of the main reasons for this is that these apps usually cannot solve keyboard navigation barriers, which allow disabled users to browse your website without using a mouse or trackpad.

Running a business is already a demanding task that requires a lot of your time and energy.

The added responsibility of coding websites and understanding the complex details of the web content accessibility guidelines can make things even more challenging.

That’s why we created a simple program in consultation with lawyers and using guidance from the DOJ that does all the hard technical work for you.
