Web Accessibility
Include everyone in your website traffic, make your site accessible and WCAG compliant.
In our Accessibility Whitepaper, we cover the importance of accessibility in web page. Web accessibility ensures everyone can access, understand, and use digital content. The whitepaper highlights the importance of accessibility in your UX design, a guide to understanding the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG), and highlights the best practices for businesses to follow.
The Challenge
Alongside the need to migrate to a new CMS, Smart Energy GB wanted to make the website WCAG compliant and enhance the website with the 3rd party accessibility and translation tool ‘Recite Me’. Their aim was to enable the campaign to reach a large number of people with visual or hearing impairments.
The Solution
Using Umbraco, we began the development of the new website with our expert team. To achieve Smart Energy GB’s core goal of inclusivity and accessibility, the 3rd party tool, ‘Recite Me’, was integrated. This tool provides several functionalities, such as language translations, screen reading and colour contrast settings. This means that the Smart Energy GB website can be accessed by everyone, regardless of disability or impairment. Every step of our development process was also directed by Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG).
The Challenge
A primary reason ABPI wanted to refresh their ABPI schools website was that it was dull, unintuitive and had poor mobile capabilities for students looking to use the site. Thus, ABPI wanted to create an interactive and accessible website, in order to improve the digital experience.
The Solution
Our team wanted to make sure that the resources and content were accessible and beneficial to every user. Our accessibility team went above and beyond to ensure that impairments would not be an issue when navigating through the pages, using resources, or during self-tests. We integrated the 3rd party tool ‘Recite Me’ into every page, which provides functions that improve accessibility such as screen reading, colour contrast settings, magnification capabilities and automatic language translation.
