ADA Compliance For Your Website
Everyone should be able to enjoy your website, regardless of ability. We make it easy for your website to comply with ADA.
Our President & CEO Joe Sandin discusses the importance of having a website that complies with ADA and its implications on your business.
What is ADA Compliance?
15% of the world’s population has some sort of disability.
The Americans with Disabilities Act, known as ADA, is our country’s most important law regarding accessibility for people with disabilities. Signed into law in 1990, the ADA prohibits discrimination against anyone based on ability or disability.
- You must make accommodations for employees with disabilities to be able to do their jobs.
- You must make it possible for your customers with disabilities to access your services.

Why should my site be ADA compliant?
Don't miss out on the many great benefits to having an ADA-compliant website.
When your website is ADA compliant, everyone benefits because 100% of your users can find what they want quickly and easily.
The end result is a better, more accessible website that is usable by everyone, an increase in traffic, and more sales opportunities.

SEO
Being ADA compliant, search engines automatically move your website higher in the search engine result pages.
Brand
If a user is able to find what they want easily, they are likely to recommend it to others, increasing your brand reputation.
Legal
If your website adheres to ADA compliance, you can avoid any legal penalties associated with web accessibility.
What are the legal risks?
Today, U.S. courts apply ADA accessibility requirements to the internet, meaning websites should comply with ADA rules.
ADA lawsuits have skyrocketed. Over 1,000 federal digital accessibility lawsuits were filed in the first half of 2022 under the ADA.
This means that just as you need to ensure that your brick-and-mortar locations are accessible to everyone, you also need to make sure that your website can be used by everyone – regardless of ability.
Why is web accessibility such a hot legal topic?
Ecommerce is booming
Online retail purchases now represent almost 15% of all retail spending. This means that it is more important than ever to ensure that websites are easily accessible.
People are more aware
High-profile lawsuits mean that options for legal recourse are more widely known.
It's easy to file a claim
A person has nothing to lose by filing a lawsuit since ADA Title lll requires the defendant to automatically pay the plaintiff’s legal fees.
