Website Audits
At Accessibility Partners, our website audits provide more than just automated reports, we deliver actionable strategies to remove accessibility barriers and ensure your digital presence aligns with WCAG 2.1, WCAG 2.2, and AODA compliance standards.
We emphasize real-user testing with people who rely on screen readers and assistive technology. This ensures that your website is not only technically compliant but usable in real-world scenarios.
Whether you’re seeking accessibility for compliance, inclusivity, or legal protection, our expert team is ready to support you.
Accessibility Evaluation - Website Accessibility Audit
We provide website audits services to identify and assess the accessibility barriers present in your website. These audits involve a thorough review and analysis of your website’s design, structure, content, and functionality to determine its compliance with accessibility standards and guidelines.
While WCAG principles are widely accepted and recommended, you may require statistics on accessibility issues that are not aligned with these principles. In such cases, we can perform specialized audits to highlight specific accessibility concerns that may go beyond the standard guidelines.
Accessibility Evaluation Guidelines
With people with disabilities, we measure your website’s compliance with specific accessibility standards and guidelines, including WCAG 2.2. Our auditors provide a detailed analysis of your website’s adherence to each standard and guideline, highlighting areas of non-compliance.
Remediation Guidance
Along with the audit report, our auditors can offer guidance and support to assist your website owners and developers in addressing the accessibility barriers identified. This may involve providing code examples, best practices, and resources to facilitate the remediation process.
Automated Testing
We use tools and software to scan your website for common accessibility issues. While showing numerous false positives, these automated tests can identify certain barriers like missing alternative text for images, broken links, improper heading usage, and color contrast problems.
Manual Testing
Deeply knowledgeable auditors manually navigate through your website, meticulously examining its elements for accessibility barriers. They assess elements such as images, videos, forms, navigation menus, links, headings, and more.
Report Generation
We compile a comprehensive report, providing a detailed overview of the accessibility issues found during the audit. The report includes recommendations for improvement, prioritizing the issues based on their impact and severity.
Ongoing Accessibility Maintenance
We can offer ongoing support and monitoring to ensure that your websites maintain accessibility compliance over time. We may conduct periodic audits or offer services to resolve emerging accessibility issues.
Our Website Accessibility Audit Process
Our website audits are collaborative, structured, and results-driven. Here’s how we help you achieve long-term accessibility.
Our standard reporting package includes:
Consultation
We begin with a conversation to understand your goals, timeline, and website complexity. This ensures we tailor the audit to your specific needs.
Testing Phase
In the testing phase, we combine automated tools, manual reviews, and real user testing with screen readers to detect and fix accessibility issues that automated tools alone can’t catch.
Report Generation
We create a prioritized, annotated report with issue severity (A/AA/AAA), screenshots, code suggestions, and direct remediation guidance for your developers or vendors.
Remediation Support
Our team works closely with your developers, designers, or CMS partners to offer:
- Code-level guidance
- UI/UX design advice
- Ongoing technical support during fixes
Re-testing & Verification
Once fixes are applied, we re-audit the site to verify all previously flagged issues are resolved, ensuring you’re compliant before publication or certification.
