Website Accessibility for Wineries

Website Accessibility for Wineries

Website accessibility (ADA Compliance) ensures that a website has been properly designed and coded so that people with disabilities can easily navigate and use it.

Designing a website to be a simple, enjoyable user experience on any device is critical for every business. Not only will an accessible website result in more online sales thanks to a better user experience, it actually has become a legal requirement in recent years. The Americans with Disabilities Act, meant to keep those with disabilities from being discriminated against, now applies to the digital realm. Thus, wineries can face a lawsuit if their website is deemed to violate the ADA, with parameters set by the WCAG 2.1 guidelines.
