A customer lands on a website and can't use it. That's not just bad design — increasingly, it's legal liability.

Web accessibility lawsuits have climbed for years, and they don't only target big brands. Local businesses with non-compliant sites get demand letters too, and most owners have no idea they're exposed until one arrives.

What compliance really means

It means a site that works for everyone: readable contrast, keyboard navigation, alt text on images, labeled forms, and a structure screen readers can follow. The WCAG guidelines are the standard, and meeting them protects the business while widening its audience.

Accessibility isn't a feature you add at the end. It's a baseline the whole site is built on — or isn't.— The 44i Digital playbook

The upside nobody mentions

Accessible sites are usually faster, rank better, and convert more — the same things that make a site compliant make it good. We audit and remediate under your brand, so your client gets protection and performance in one move.
