Accessibility
A closer look
The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) are international standards for accessibility which aim to identify, remove, and prevent barriers for people with disabilities. As such, there exists a series of specific requirements and expectations that a website must meet in order to comply.
Digital Chaos has expertise in developing and refreshing websites in order to ensure compliance for your business. We employ a process for manually coding websites for compliance as well as testing websites for accessibility using automated and human assessments.

Legislation
Why it's important to follow the standard.
Accessibility legislation has been passed in Canada, the United States, and many other countries around the world. It was passed to ensure that people with disabilities could participate equally in society, without encountering obstacles.
At Digital Chaos we feel strongly that the benefits of AODA / WCAG go beyond avoidance of litigation. Providing web content in an accessible way helps the greatest number of people in our society. As an additional bonus, it will improve your site's search engine optimization (SEO) for better ranking in Google and other search engines.
