Is web accessibility only for people with disabilities?

No, web accessibility isn’t just for people with disabilities. While it certainly helps those with various impairments, it also improves the user experience for all users. For instance, a well-designed, accessible website can be easier to navigate, read, and understand for everyone, not just those with disabilities.

Is compliance with WCAG 2.0 a legal necessity in the United States?

While compliance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0 is not legally mandated in the US, it’s recognized as a de facto standard due to its acceptance by the Department of Justice, courts, and advocates. The interpretation of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) includes websites as “places of public accommodation,” holding website owners accountable for accessibility. You should consult your legal professional for any specific issues.

What are the four basic categories of web accessibility standards?

The four principal categories of web accessibility standards, as defined by WCAG, are Perceivable, Operable, Understandable, and Robust. These categories ensure that digital content is accessible to as many users as possible.

What does it cost to make my website accesible?

For most websites, the annual commitment for this implementation is only $750 for the first year and $500/year after that. That covers getting it set up and running smoothly, an accessibility statement, monthly check-ups for compliance, and accessiBe’s lawsuit assistance package if any legal stuff comes up.

What constitutes the criteria for web accessibility?

Web accessibility standards are defined by a set of guidelines known as the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG). These guidelines specify how to make online content more accessible to people with disabilities.

What are Section 508 and WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility standards?

Section 508 is part of the US Rehabilitation Act, which requires federal agencies to make electronic and information technology accessible to people with disabilities. WCAG 2.1 AA, on the other hand, is a set of guidelines that define how to make web content more accessible, with “AA” being a specific level of compliance.

Are there any tax benefits linked to making a website accessible?

Yes, tax credits are available in the US to incentivize businesses to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) by making their websites accessible. These credits cover 50% of the eligible accessibility expenditures with a maximum tax credit a business can receive of $5,000 per year.

Eligibility for this tax credit extends to businesses that either generated $1,000,000 or less in the year prior to filing or employed 30 or fewer full-time employees in the previous tax year.
