Accessibility Isn't Optional. It's the Right Thing to Do.
ADA Website Compliance for Durham Businesses That Want to Serve Everyone
Over 61 million Americans live with a disability. If your website isn’t accessible, you’re not just risking a lawsuit. You’re telling a significant portion of your potential customers that your business isn’t for them. Let’s fix that.
Your Website Might Be Breaking the Law. And You Probably Don't Know It.
Most business owners have no idea their website is inaccessible. Missing alt text, poor color contrast, keyboard navigation that doesn’t work, form labels that screen readers can’t interpret. These aren’t cosmetic issues. They’re barriers that prevent real people from using your site. And they’re increasingly the basis for legal action.
Lawsuits Are Increasing Every Year
Web accessibility lawsuits have surged in recent years. Small businesses are not exempt. An inaccessible website is a legal liability whether you're aware of the issues or not.
People Can't Use Your Site
Screen readers can't parse your forms. Keyboard users can't navigate your menu. Color-blind visitors can't read your text. These aren't edge cases. They're real people trying to do business with you and failing.
You Don't Know Where to Start
WCAG 2.1. AA standards. ARIA labels. The terminology alone is enough to make your head spin. You know accessibility matters, but you don't know what your site needs or how to fix it.

03
Compliance Report and Ongoing Monitoring
You receive a compliance report documenting the work completed. Clients on our Website Health Plan Double and Home Run tiers also get ongoing accessibility monitoring so new content stays compliant as your site grows.
What You Get
A Website That Works for Everyone Who Visits It
WCAG 2.1 AA Compliance Audit
A comprehensive review of your entire website against current accessibility standards. Every page, every form, every interactive element tested for compliance.
Alt Text and Image Accessibility
Descriptive alt text for every image so screen readers can convey your visual content to users who can't see it. Decorative images properly marked so they don't clutter the experience.
Color Contrast Remediation
Text and background color combinations adjusted to meet WCAG contrast ratios. Your brand colors stay intact with adjustments that improve readability for everyone, not just users with vision impairments.
Keyboard Navigation
Every menu, form, button, and interactive element made fully navigable via keyboard. Users who can't use a mouse should be able to use your entire site without it.
Form and Label Accessibility
Form fields properly labeled so screen readers can identify each input. Error messages that clearly explain what needs to be corrected and where.
Prioritized Remediation Report
A clear report ranking every issue by severity so you can see what was fixed and understand the improvements. Documentation you can reference if accessibility questions arise.

Inaccessible Websites Don't Just Exclude People. They Invite Lawsuits.
Web accessibility lawsuits are filed every day against businesses of all sizes. Settlements typically run $5,000 to $20,000, and that’s before legal fees. Beyond the legal risk, every inaccessible page is a customer who couldn’t buy from you, book with you, or contact you. They went somewhere that let them in. Your competitor’s accessible site.
Imagine a Website That Welcomes Every Single Visitor
Everyone Can Use Your Site
Screen reader users navigate your menu effortlessly. Keyboard users tab through your forms. Color-blind visitors read your content clearly. Your website stops being a barrier and starts being a doorway.
Legal Risk Drops Dramatically
A WCAG 2.1 AA compliant site with documentation is your best defense against accessibility lawsuits. Prevention costs a fraction of a settlement. And it lets you sleep better knowing you did the right thing.
Your SEO Improves Too
Accessible websites are easier for search engines to crawl and index. Proper heading structure, alt text, and semantic HTML aren’t just accessibility features. They’re SEO fundamentals. One fix serves both purposes.
Common Questions
Accessibility Questions Without the Jargon
How much does an ADA compliance audit cost?
The audit starts at $497, and that fee applies as a credit toward remediation work if you move forward with fixes. Full remediation is quoted from the audit findings, typically $1,497 to $2,997 depending on your site’s size and issues.
What is WCAG 2.1 AA?
WCAG 2.1 AA is the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines standard that courts and regulators treat as the benchmark for an accessible website. It covers things like contrast, keyboard navigation, screen reader compatibility, and form labels. It’s the standard we audit and remediate against.
Can I really get sued over my website?
Yes, and small businesses get targeted precisely because they rarely have their sites buttoned up. Website accessibility lawsuits and demand letters are common, and settlements typically run $5,000 to $20,000 before legal fees. Fixing your site costs a fraction of defending it.
How long does the audit and remediation take?
The audit takes about a week. Remediation depends on what we find, but most sites are fully remediated within two to four weeks of approving the quote.
Will accessibility changes affect my design?
Done right, accessibility improvements are nearly invisible to sighted users: better contrast, clearer labels, cleaner code. Your design stays your design, it just works for everyone, which is the point.
Do I need ongoing accessibility monitoring?
Standards evolve and sites change, so yes, monitoring matters after remediation. Our Website Health Plan includes an accessibility monitoring plugin at the Double tier and up, which keeps watch without another engagement.
Is an accessibility overlay or widget enough?
Honest answer: no. Overlay widgets don’t fix the underlying code, and they’ve been named in lawsuits themselves rather than preventing them. Real compliance happens in the code, which is exactly what we fix.
Will this help with SEO?
Yes, more than most people expect. Accessible sites have cleaner structure, better labels, and clearer content hierarchy, all things Google’s crawlers reward. Accessibility and SEO are cousins.
