Understanding Web Accessibility & How This Tool Helps
Web accessibility means designing and developing websites, tools, and technologies so that people with disabilities can use them. It ensures everyone, regardless of their abilities or the technology they use, can perceive, understand, navigate, and interact with the web.
Following accessibility guidelines, such as the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG), not only fulfills ethical and legal requirements but also improves the user experience for *all* users. Search engines like Google also value accessible websites, aligning with their E-E-A-T (Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, Trustworthiness) principles, as accessibility significantly enhances user experience.
Why Use an Accessibility Checker?
Our Advanced Accessibility Checker helps you identify common accessibility barriers on your website. By entering a URL (where possible) or pasting your HTML code, the tool performs automated checks based on WCAG standards. It provides a clear report highlighting potential issues, their severity, and suggestions for fixing them.
- Identify barriers: Quickly find issues like missing image descriptions, poor color contrast, improper form labeling, and incorrect heading structures.
- Improve User Experience: Fixing accessibility issues makes your site easier to use for people with visual, auditory, motor, or cognitive impairments, and often improves usability for everyone.
- Enhance SEO: Accessible websites tend to have better structure, clearer content, and improved usability metrics, which are positive signals for search engines. Features like alt text also provide context for search crawlers.
- Meet Compliance Needs: Adhering to WCAG standards helps meet legal requirements in many regions (e.g., ADA, Section 508, EAA).

Limitations of Automated Checkers
While this tool is powerful for catching common static issues, automated checkers cannot find all accessibility problems. Manual testing, including keyboard-only navigation and testing with assistive technologies (like screen readers), is crucial for a complete accessibility audit. This tool should be used as a starting point and a helpful aid, not a replacement for comprehensive manual evaluation.
