What is WCAG?
What Is WCAG?
The purpose of WCAG is to provide guidelines for making web content accessible to people with disabilities. Adhering to Web Content Accessibility Guidelines helps create a more inclusive web environment and can benefit SEO, improve site usability for all users, and ensure compliance with various legal requirements. Web content developers primarily use WCAG standards to ensure accessibility and avoid legal retribution for inaccessible websites.Companies, both private and public, should proactively work on making their websites and digital products compliant with WCAG standards by the 2025 deadline to avoid these consequences. This includes conducting accessibility audits, implementing necessary changes, and continuously monitoring and maintaining accessibility compliance.
step 1
Audit of Your Digital Product
It doesn't matter if you have a website, system, e-commerce platform or an application - first we need to conduct an audit to see how much work will be required to implement WCAG rules.
What Do We Check?
Text Alternatives for Non-Text Content
Keyboard Accessibility
Navigation
Contrast Ratio
Input Assistance

Step 2
Plan of WCAG Implementation
The more complex and sophisticated a digital product or website is, the longer the implementation of WCAG guidelines will take. The audit provides us with necessary information for further work - based on it, designers and developers assess how much time they will need to implement the necessary fixes. In the meantime, we need to consult with the client, so that everyone is aware of the progress of the work and the changes being implemented.
What Do We Do?
Checking the Time Required for Implementing the Necessary Changes
Preparing Plan of Action
Discussing with the Client What Will Be Changed

step 3
Implementation
WCAG implementation can be quite a tricky process, so after we improve the code. we need to check if everything works the way it supposed to.
We conduct a second audit to check if all the assumptions have been met. During the audit, we perform tests to verify the accessibility of all elements.
