Web Content Accessibility Compliance

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 1.0 (WCAG) icon is provided by the Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI) of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) to indicate that a site follows the WCAG guidelines and is accessible for people with disabilities.

W3C WAI Double-A WCAG 1.0 (new site)

There are three levels of WCAG 1.0 compliance. We assert that this site meets Double-A compliance guidelines (two levels of accessibility requirements), something that few websites today can claim.

In fact, there is only one item (Guideline 10.5), a third-level priority, that prevents us from declaring this site fully Triple-A compliant (the most stringent level).

Why is this important?

The fact that we meet accessibility guidelines means that your site will automatically avoid common errors that prevent visitors from accessing your site the way you intend or quickly finding the information they need.

Because accessibility compliance is one of our areas of expertise, we know how to get around ordinary browser bugs and the poor website practices that make pages hard to use for everyone.

We build your site without taking any extra time, because we incorporate accessibility and standards compliance from the ground up, as we design your solution.

It is not necessary to abandon usable and attractive website design to meet accessibility standards— in fact we improve the user experience for everyone on the sites we design by making sure we meet accessibility standards.

Note: The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines are currently being revised. We intend to stay current.
