What the Accessibility Checker tests

About one in four US adults lives with a disability, and many use a screen reader, keyboard, voice control or zoom to get around the web. The Accessibility Checker reads a page the way that technology does and flags the problems that stop people using it — measured against WCAG 2.2, the standard US courts and the Department of Justice point to under the ADA.

What it checks

  • Text alternatives — images, image buttons and image links without alt text, and alt text that is just a file name.
  • Names for links and buttons — icon-only links and buttons (menus, social icons, search, close) that a screen reader announces as just “link” or “button”.
  • Form labels — fields that rely on placeholder text, which disappears while typing and is often not read out.
  • Structure — page language, page title, one H1 and headings in order, a way to skip the menu, header cells in data tables.
  • Zoom and motion — viewport settings that block pinch-zoom, and video or audio that plays with sound by itself.
  • Keyboard traps and hidden controls — forced tab order, and links or buttons hidden from screen readers but still reachable by keyboard.
  • Link text — “click here” and “read more” links that make no sense out of context.

Why it matters for your business

An inaccessible site loses customers who can’t complete a form or a booking — and in the US it is also a legal risk: thousands of website accessibility lawsuits are filed every year, many against small and mid-sized businesses such as law firms, clinics, restaurants and retailers. The most common complaints are exactly the issues above: missing alt text, unlabelled forms and buttons, and sites that can’t be used with a keyboard.

What a tool can’t tell you

Automated checks find only part of real accessibility problems — commonly estimated at a third to a half. Colour contrast, keyboard use, focus order, captions and how a screen reader actually reads your menus need a person. The report lists those as “check by hand” — and it is never a certificate that a site complies with the ADA or WCAG.

How to use this tool

  1. 1
    Enter a page address

    Start with the pages that matter most: the home page, a service page and your contact or booking page. Or paste the HTML of a page that isn’t live yet.

  2. 2
    Read the score and “Fix these first”

    Problems that block people are listed first, each with the WCAG rule it breaks.

  3. 3
    Open each problem

    You see the exact elements — the image file, the link, the field — and how to fix it.

  4. 4
    Do the checks by hand

    Try the page with only the Tab key, zoom to 200% on a phone, and check text contrast. Then re-run the checker after each fix.

Frequently asked questions

Does a good score mean my site is ADA compliant?

No. No automated tool can certify compliance — it finds part of the issues. A full audit adds keyboard and screen-reader testing of every template, and an accessibility statement.

Which standard does it use?

WCAG 2.2, levels A and AA — the standard used in US ADA cases, the European Accessibility Act and most public-sector rules. Each finding shows the WCAG rule it relates to.

Do accessibility overlays or widgets fix these problems?

Not reliably. Overlay widgets can’t repair missing labels or broken structure in your code, and sites using them are still sued. Fixing the issues in the site itself is what works.

Does accessibility help SEO?

Yes, many fixes overlap: descriptive alt text, a clear heading structure, meaningful link text and a correct page language help search engines and AI assistants understand the page too.

Can you fix the issues for us?

Yes. Our Accessibility Audit & Fix tests every template by hand, fixes what we find, and provides an accessibility statement — with optional monthly monitoring.
