WCAG ACCESSIBILITY CONSULTANT
Making Digital Content Accessible
Dave Kneisler is a website accessibility consultant and digital content creator who helps audit the accessibility of a company’s website ensuring they are WCAG 2.1 & 2.2 compliant.
The digital content produced is done in line with such compliance while effectively communicating a company’s brand and purpose.
This is very important and mandatory to carry out for your website. One reason is to remove the barriers for a disabled person to become enabled when they are using your website.
Making the necessary adjustments on your site not only benefits those with a disability, but also gives your brand access to over 1 billion potential customers that may access your products or services.
Be inclusive.
The Legal Ramifications
If you fail to have your site completely user friendly for everyone who visits it, this can lead to a whole world of legal issues.
You must get this done as soon as possible to avoid the risk of a major law suit and being taken to court for not having your site considered accessible to everyone capable of using the internet.
This is no joke. Your site could be next.
Thousands of website owners have been either served a lawsuit or taken to court. Or both. This includes Beyoncé. She has been in the news for not having her site accessible to the various types of people with disabilities trying to access her content and services.
Another case was a woman in Canada who took the Canadian Federal Government to court and won due to their website not being accessible for her.
Now, more than ever, it is imperative to follow the WCAG 2.1 & 2.2 compliance guidelines set out by the W3C World Wide Web Consortium.
What is WCAG?
WCAG stands for Web Content Accessibility Guidelines.
It was introduced and published by the W3C on the fifth of May nineteen ninety nine (05 May 1999).
WCAG 2.0 & 2.1 defines the appropriate way to make online content accessible to people with disabilities. Accessibility involves a wide spectrum of disabilities.
There are several types of people with a disability looking to gain access to helpful and relevant content online.
These include; auditory, physical, speech, cognitive language, learning, neurological, physical, speech and visual disabilities.
It is important that all websites offer accessibility to everyone who is able to use the internet.

We can run speed tests to check how fast your site loads. If required, we can then make the necessary adjustments to prepare and optimise your site to ensure it loads as fast as possible to help contribute towards a healthy SEO ranking.

We want to help our clients avoid hackers and spam bots from infiltrating your WordPress site by recommending the best security setup for your business.
At the least, we will ensure that a free security defence is in place with upgrades available when required.
We can also run a full security scan of your website to show you if there are any vulnerabilities and suggest how they can be fixed.
