Top 5 Advantages of Making a Business Website ADA Compliant

Advantage of Compliance

A quick search or look at the news will reveal that there has been a significant increase in lawsuits for websites that violate ADA Title III. This trend has impacted nearly every industry and has affected all types of website owners, including individuals, small-and-medium businesses (SMBs), large corporations, and celebrity vanity sites. Creating an ADA compliant website can help you avoid costly lawsuits and adhere to accessibility legislation locally and abroad. There are many reasons to commit to accessibility compliance, and there’s no reason to delay.

However, adjusting an existing website or building an inclusive web design from scratch can be challenging even for the strictest HTML and CSS designer. The good news is that there are other options. Accessible Internet offers a simple solution that could render your website compliant in minutes regardless of the platform, hosting company, or CMS program used. Our clients are taking advantage of cutting-edge technology that ensures they meet all compliance standards, including ADA Title III, WCAG 2.1 AA, Section 508, EAA/EN 301549, and other local and international accessibility legislation requirements.

Protect Your Business

The first and most obvious advantage of creating an ADA compliant website is preventing costly lawsuits by making sure that your website is compliant with the latest accessibility legislation and standards. At Accessible Internet, our goal is to help our clients and ensure that they can provide equal access to information and resources via their websites for all visitors. The services that we provide can help you ensure that your website is compliant and accessible to everyone.

Increase Your Reach

When you use inclusive web design to ensure that your website is accessible to everyone, you will naturally increase your market reach. Studies show that more than 25 percent of Americans have some degree of disability that may require the use of an ADA compliant website. Following the guidelines and regulations of ADA Title III and WCAG 2.1 AA can bring in a whole new demographic of potential customers and visitors that you would have otherwise missed. It makes sense to ensure that your website is available to anyone who wants to view it or use it, especially if you are running a business or trying to expand your relevance to consumers.

Build Your Brand

Increasing your market logically brings us to the advantage of being able to build your brand. Regardless of the industry you serve or the market you want to reach, establishing a solid reputation is essential to your continued success. Inclusive web design is an excellent way of proving that you value every visitor. Creating an ADA compliant website says that you are not only aware of the importance of disabled individuals to your business but that you have gone out of your way to ensure they could use it to its full potential. In a world where social and commercial responsibility often goes hand-in-hand, this is a great way to build a positive relationship and reach out to an essential demographic at the same time.

It’s the Right Thing to Do

Regardless of the legal ramifications of ADA Title III and WCAG 2.1 AA guidelines, when it comes right down to it, inclusive web design is just the right thing to do. You want to make sure that anyone, regardless of their disability, can access the information and resources you provide on your website or purchase the goods and services you offer. All websites, irrespective of the type or mission, should ensure that they provide straightforward accessibility for all visitors. Accessibility legislation is a driving force behind the move to create an ADA compliant website, but the truth is that we should all want to accommodate every individual who seeks to visit or use our digital properties.
