Website Accessibility: WCAG 2.1 and Why It Matters
Table of Contents — English
Overview
WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) is the international web accessibility standard published by W3C. Three compliance levels: A, AA, and AAA — AA is the target for corporate sites. The POUR principles: Perceivable, Operable, Understandable, Robust. Accessibility checklist: all images with meaningful alt text, color contrast ratio minimum 4.5:1 for normal text, all interactive elements keyboard-accessible, programmatically associated labels on all form fields, logical heading hierarchy (H1-H2-H3), visible focus indicator. Accessibility and SEO are intertwined: meaningful alt text describes images to search engines, clean heading hierarchy clarifies content structure, keyboard navigation eases bot crawling. PROJX Digital targets WCAG 2.1 AA compliance on all web projects, using Axe DevTools and Lighthouse accessibility audit during development, with an accessibility audit report included in the delivery package.
