Section 508 Compliant Website Design Services: Is your website ADA Compliant?
Your Business Website Is Likely Ignoring up to Tens of Millions of people!
How are businesses ignoring nearly 20% of the population in the United States? Most websites, including business websites, are not designed to meet the American Disabilities Act (ADA) / 508 compliance standards. When your website is corrected to meet disabled-friendly standards, meaning ADA / 508 compliant specifications, you're opening your business to wider audience.
What is a 508 Compliance?
An Accessible, 508 Compliant website means that anyone, regardless of the ability to manipulate a mouse, regardless of how much vision they have or being color blind, regardless of whether they can hear, and regardless of whether they have use of their hands, can use the exact same website as a fully-abled person.
What Solution Does WebsiteForge Offer?
WebsiteForge has completed major system-upgrades to their already user-friendly content management system to allow production and user-performed site maintenance on fully 508 Compliant websites.
Section 508 website compliance can be challenging and is not a job for the inexperienced. Elements of a website such as linking, navigation, images, page structure, organization and proper coding need to be carefully planned and properly implemented to provide true accessibility - and with WebsiteForge, easy maintenance in the future.
Suppose after your website was built you found out that it would not work in a popular browser, like Safari - which is roughly 10% of all website visitors. You would likely (and understandably) be very upset. Yet, Website Owners are rarely informed about an even larger group of potential Website Visitors they're either missing out on or likely alienating, the Disabled.
According to the Office for National Statistics, in May 2015, about 73% of disabled adults use the internet. If your website is not user-friendly for the disabled you are missing out on potential Clients and possibly alienating the Disabled Persons who have visited the website and found it difficult or impossible to use.
