ADA Compliance – Is Your Website Up To Date?

By Deborah, President & CEO | August 19, 2019

Did you realize that there are people—potential customers, clients or guests—who can’t read your website?

Unless your site has been designed with ADA compliance in mind, the information it contains may not be accessible by individuals with disabilities.

What is Title III?

Making sure your website is ADA compliant is not only a smart marketing move. It’s the law.

Title III of the Americans with Disability Act (ADA)—which applies to private businesses—exists to ensure that individuals with disabilities have equal access, opportunity, participation, independence and economic self-sufficiency. 

What does this mean for your website?

Here are a few recommended measures that you might need to address to help your site attain compliance—and help your business stay ahead of any legal action.

  • Menus and navigation should have appropriate coding to be utilized without a mouse and work in text form, and are logically arranged
  • Headers and content should be logically read and understood in text form and by a text‐to‐audio/braille interpreter
  • Audio and video files should be accompanied by a transcription
