ADA Compliant Accounting Website - Benefits and Example
| |
While most accountants dread the thought of updating their website, there are benefits from making your website accessible for ordinary people AND those with impairments like blindness and cognitive disabilities. They are:
Increased Website Traffic
Making your website useful for ordinary people and those with disabilities actually increases website traffic and engagement. That's right, making your website accessible to all improves organic search engine optimization (SEO).
For example, making your website more accessible for people with blindness or visual impairment increases your audience and improves SEO. Many of the steps required to improve access also make it easier for search engines (and robots) to boost SEO.
Increasing access into your website increases your audience by 15-20%.
Reduced risk of Legal Issues
Making your website accessible reduces your legal risk from the Department of Justice (DOJ) and being added to a class action law suit.
Improved SEO
By all means, making your website ADA Compliant takes extra effort which means extra cost. At the same time, adhering to web content accessibility guidelines (WCAG) helps search engine crawlers improves search engine placement.
