Today, accessibility is also important for SEO, audience reach, and customer trust.

Although not officially mandated, the requirements set out in this standard are often used in lawsuits against website owners and have been used by the Department of Justice more than once.

That is pretty substantial for Small Businesses and, depending on the number of violations, can be crippling for even Large businesses.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-make-your-website-ada-and-wcag-compliant\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_To_Make_Your_Website_ADA_and_WCAG_Compliant\"><\/span>How To Make Your Website ADA and WCAG Compliant?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Making your website compliant means following the outlined standards and implementing these directly on the content, design, structure, and even functionality of the website. However, not everyone is familiar with how these changes should be applied to one&#8217;s website since the process requires\u00a0developers, designers, and content writers. This means you will need to hire the right people, resulting in a separate budget and additional spending. Not to mention the time you will need.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Of course, you can always search for\u00a0agencies specialized in ADA and WCAG compliance. However, an agency will not charge you less since they do manual service for you.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While no\u2011code solutions can quickly improve accessibility, many organizations still require manual audits, code-level remediation, and documentation to meet legal and enterprise standards. If you need expert help achieving and sustaining <a href=\"https:\/\/www.americaneagle.com\/expertise\/accessibility\">WCAG Compliance<\/a>,\u00a0aligning with Section 508, consider partnering with a team that provides accessibility consulting, assessments, remediation roadmaps, and developer training. A services-led approach can identify issues automated tools miss, prioritize fixes by severity, and deliver ongoing monitoring and support &#8211; complementing widgets and plugins to ensure durable, inclusive experiences across websites and applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">If you have built your website on top of a <strong>platform like WordPress, you can look for a plugin<\/strong>. However, by the time of writing this blog post, no WordPress plugin complies with legislation, handles all the ADA and WCAG requirements, and is free at the same time.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">So basically, achieving ADA and WCAG compliance will always cost a portion of your website&#8217;s budget. Then, what is the most cost-efficient and most effective method you can put your trust in?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">After spending several months looking for the best solution on the market, we have found one service that satisfies all our needs &#8211;&nbsp;<\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/accessibe.com\/a\/ag0h9t1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">AccessiBe<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">.

However, as we outlined, there is no free service that can help your website achieve ADA and WCAG compliance out of the box, and to be honest, <a href=\"https:\/\/accessibe.com\/a\/ag0h9t1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"editor-rtfLink\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">AccessiBe<\/span><\/a> is the best balance between cost and value you can get.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By the time we are writing this post, their<strong> cheapest plan comes at $49\/month on a Monthy Billing cycle.&nbsp;<\/strong> Should you decide to opt for an Annual Billing cycle the price drops by 20%.<strong> So for 1 whole year of service, you will have to pay $490.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Currently, <a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/accessibe.com\/a\/ag0h9t1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">AccessiBe<\/span><\/a> offers four plans based on the number of pages your website has. If you are not sure how to count the pages please consider their explanation of how they count the pages:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;We define a page by a unique URL, not included parameters. Meaning if a page has URL parameters, all of them together is considered one page. To verify page count, type \u201csite:yourwebsite.com\u201d into Google. The number next to \u201cresults\u201d is your page count.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Overall, the pricing is pretty affordable considering how much a whole website rework of Web Accessibility can cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Additionally, if you are not certain about the service, <a href=\"https:\/\/accessibe.com\/a\/ag0h9t1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"editor-rtfLink\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">AccessiBe<\/span><\/a> also offers a free 7-day trial, which will help you explore and evaluate their services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-accessibe-and-hostarmada\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"AccessiBe_and_HostArmada\"><\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">AccessiBe<\/span> and HostArmada<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After testing <a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/accessibe.com\/a\/ag0h9t1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">AccessiBe<\/span><\/a> we were astonished by how easy-to-implement and how functional their service is.
