Accessibility Checker Plus

Web accessibility means that websites, tools, and technologies are designed and developed so that people with disabilities can use them. This includes visual, auditory, motor, or cognitive disabilities. WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) provide the international standard for web accessibility.

Accessibility is important because it ensures equal access to information and functionality for all users. It's also legally required in many jurisdictions and improves SEO, usability, and overall user experience for everyone, not just those with disabilities.

This tool checks multiple aspects of web accessibility including color contrast ratios, font sizes, link text clarity, image alt text, heading structure, and more. It evaluates your content against WCAG 2.1 AA and AAA standards.

To improve accessibility: 1) Ensure sufficient color contrast (4.5:1 for normal text), 2) Use descriptive link text instead of 'click here', 3) Add alt text to images, 4) Use proper heading hierarchy, 5) Make sure all functionality works with keyboard navigation, 6) Provide captions for videos, 7) Use ARIA labels where appropriate.
