Make Your Website Work for Everyone
1 in 4 adults has a disability. If your site isn’t accessible, you’re shutting out a quarter of your buyers and inviting an ADA lawsuit. I audit against all 86 WCAG 2.2 AA criteria with real screen readers and keyboard-only testing, then hand you a fix-it plan with code for every issue.
The accessibility gaps you can’t see
Color contrast failures
Text that looks fine to you is invisible to 300 million people with color vision deficiency. Your palette is quietly turning customers away.
Keyboard traps
People who can’t use a mouse get stuck. Modals that won’t close, dropdowns they can’t reach. They leave and you never see it in analytics.
Silent videos
No captions, no transcripts. Deaf users get nothing, and Google can’t index what it can’t read either.
Touch targets too small
Buttons crammed together that motor-impaired users can’t tap. Neither can anyone trying to tap on a moving train.
Missing labels
Form fields with no labels, images with no alt text, buttons that just say ‘click here.’ Screen readers announce meaningless noise.
Legal exposure
Website ADA lawsuits have climbed sharply since 2018, with settlements often in the tens of thousands. An audit costs a fraction of one claim.
What you get
Automated scans catch about half the issues. The other half needs a human with a screen reader. You get both.
- Full WCAG 2.2 AA audit across all 86 success criteria
- Automated scanning plus manual testing with real screen readers and keyboard-only navigation
- Page-by-page issue report with Critical, Major, and Minor severity ratings
- Fix instructions with code examples for every issue
- Color contrast analysis with accessible alternatives suggested
- ARIA landmark and role audit tied to semantic structure
- An accessibility statement template for your legal footer
- A re-audit after fixes to confirm compliance

How the audit works
Automated scan
I run axe-core, WAVE, and Lighthouse across every page to catch the obvious misses: missing alt text, contrast failures, broken ARIA.
Manual testing
I navigate your whole site keyboard-only and test with VoiceOver and NVDA. Automated tools miss roughly half of real issues.
Issue documentation
Every issue gets a severity rating, a screenshot, the code location, and a fix. You know exactly what to change and why.
Fix verification
After your team ships the fixes, I re-test and hand you a clean compliance report plus an accessibility statement for your site.
Accessibility audits that reduce risk and widen your reach
An inaccessible site shuts out disabled users and invites legal complaints. I audit your site against WCAG standards and hand you a clear, prioritized fix list, so it works for everyone and stands up to scrutiny.

Website accessibility audit questions, answered
What does an accessibility audit include?
An evaluation of your site against WCAG 2.2 AA using automated tools and manual testing, keyboard and screen-reader checks, color contrast, forms, and media. You get a prioritized fix list with severity, legal-risk items flagged, and exact remediation steps, not just a scanner dump.
Why does website accessibility matter?
Because roughly one in six people has a disability, and an inaccessible site shuts them out, losing you customers, while also exposing you to legal complaints under ADA-style laws. Accessibility widens your reach and reduces risk; it’s both the right and the smart thing to do.
Isn’t an automated scan enough?
No. Automated tools catch only a fraction of real issues, contrast, missing alt text, some structure. Many barriers, like keyboard traps, unclear focus, and screen-reader confusion, only show up in manual and assistive-technology testing, which is why my audits include both.
What accessibility standard do you test against?
WCAG 2.2 at AA level, the standard most laws and organizations reference. I test the success criteria that matter for real users and legal compliance, and flag anything that puts you at particular risk so it’s fixed first.
Can you fix the issues, not just find them?
Yes. The audit stands alone, but most clients want remediation too. I can implement the fixes, from contrast and alt text to keyboard navigation and form labels, then re-test to confirm the site meets the standard.
How long does an accessibility audit take?
Usually a few business days to a week depending on site size, since manual and assistive-technology testing takes real time. You get the prioritized report and a walkthrough; remediation, if you want it, is scoped separately.
Accessibility isn’t optional. It’s good business.
Avoid lawsuits, reach more customers, and do the right thing. One audit gives you the complete picture and the fixes to act on.
