Opening Digital Doors for Everyone: DeckerDevs Partners with accessiBe to Promote Web Accessibility
Blog

At DeckerDevs, we’ve always been passionate about pushing the boundaries of what’s possible online. Now, we’re taking things even further by partnering with accessiBe, the leader in web accessibility, to ensure that your website is not only high-performing but also inclusive and compliant with legal standards.

 

Why Web Accessibility is Non-Negotiable

 

Did you know that 1 in 4 people in the U.S. has a disability? That’s 25% of the population who may face barriers to accessing your website or digital assets. And we’re not just talking about doing the right thing—ensuring your site is accessible isn’t just an ethical move, it’s a legal requirement under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Websites need to adhere to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) to make sure they’re perceivable, operable, understandable, and robust for users with disabilities.

 

Inclusion Meets Compliance in One Seamless Solution

 

Our partnership with accessiBe means you can improve your website’s accessibility without the headache of manual adjustments. With AI-powered solutions, accessiBe brings your site into compliance with the ADA and WCAG guidelines effortlessly. Their smart technology creates an accessible experience tailored to each user, ensuring that everyone, regardless of their ability, can engage with your content.

 

The session-based widget allows users to choose their preferred accessibility profile—whether they need larger text, screen reader compatibility, or other adjustments. This solution works harmoniously with assistive technologies, so users can navigate your site smoothly without any disruption.

Why We Chose accessiBe

 

We partner with companies that align with our values of innovation and inclusivity, and accessiBe ticks all the boxes. As a market leader in web accessibility, they’re committed to making the web a more inclusive space through continuous innovation and feedback from the disability community. When you work with us and accessiBe, you're not just making your site accessible—you’re embracing a future where digital inclusivity is the standard.

 

The Business Advantages of an Accessible Website

 

Let’s be real: an accessible website isn’t just good for your users, it’s great for your business. Here’s why:

 

- Expand Your Audience: By opening your site to the 25% of the population with disabilities, you’re tapping into a market that many businesses overlook.

- Boost SEO and Web Performance: Accessibility features like properly structured content and image alt text improve your site’s SEO, driving organic traffic and engagement.

- Enhance User Experience: Accessibility features make navigation clearer and more intuitive, offering a better UX for all visitors, not just those with disabilities.

- Build a Positive Brand Reputation: An accessible site shows that your company is committed to inclusion and social responsibility, positioning you as a leader in the modern digital landscape.

- Avoid Legal Risk: Accessibility compliance isn’t optional. By ensuring your site meets ADA and WCAG standards, you reduce the risk of lawsuits and penalties for non-compliance.
