Why Add ADA Compliance to Your Site?
It is important that anyone visiting your website can fully and safely access all the available content. The American Disabilities Act was in place prior to the explosive growth of internet related businesses. It has evolved to begin including websites as “places of public accommodation” as it relates to accessibility.
As more people “live, work, and shop” online, it is becoming more important that your website is accessible to visitors with disabilities. The law is still fuzzy on actual requirements for ADA compliance, but many companies that want to serve all their potential customers have adopted methods to make their sites more user friendly.
