You are about to launch your business website. Congratulations! You have registered the domain name, got your swanky logo and a few Instagram-worthy images and wrote a catchy copy. You are just a few clicks away from taking your website live.
Stop.
At least one in four of your potential customers in the United States lives with some type of a disability and may not be able to access or interact with your website. The cool logo and trendy brand colors you are proud of might be inaccessible to people with visual impairments or color blindness. Without properly ranked headings and labeled interactive elements, keyboard-only users or people who use assistive technology, like screen readers, won't be able to navigate your site and complete purchases.
Unfortunately, most business owners design their websites without accessibility in mind and often have to work backward to fix errors. Some errors, such as missing written descriptions for images, are relatively easy to fix (considering you don't have hundreds of images). Others, such as website navigation structure and headings, might require much more work.
By incorporating accessibility into your website development and design, you can save time, effort, and money in the long run.
Here are five key steps to remember as you launch your business website.
