Put your mouse down. Close your eyes. Hit Tab through your entire website. Can you reach every button? Can you tell where you are? If not, you have keyboard navigation issues.
Go to wave.webaim.org and enter your URL. Look for red error icons. Those are your lawsuit triggers.
Zoom your browser to 200%. Does everything still work? Can you still read text and click buttons? If it breaks, you need to fix it.
These are the top violations in ADA lawsuits. Fix them immediately.
Every image needs a description for screen readers. This is the #1 violation in lawsuits. Check linked images and buttons especially.
Any button or link without text is unusable for screen reader users. Add descriptive labels or aria-labels.
Text must have 4.5:1 contrast ratio with background (3:1 for large text). Use webaim.org/resources/contrastchecker to test. 83% of websites fail this.
Every input field needs a proper label so screen readers know what goes where. Check your contact forms, quote requests, and checkout flows.
Important fixes that improve usability and reduce risk.
Don't skip heading levels (H1 → H2 → H3). Screen readers use headings to navigate your site.
Replace "Click here" and "Read more" with descriptive text like "View pricing details" or "Download product guide."
Don't have two identical links right next to each other pointing to the same page.
Keep your site compliant and show your commitment to accessibility.
Post a statement showing your commitment to accessibility and provide a way for users to report issues. Use our GPT to generate one.
Test your site every year (or when you make major updates) to catch new issues.
Make sure anyone updating your website knows basic accessibility rules. Don't rely on widgets alone.
