The Role of Digital Accessibility in Future-Proofing Your Site

User behaviour is constantly changing, along with user expectations. Businesses with outdated websites need to work harder to gain their audiences trust. All content becomes outdated over time, and you can future-proof your websites by incorporating digital accessibility. 

The Importance of Accessibility is on the Rise

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) are the most widely used international standards for digital accessibility. When complying with the latest version of WCAG, you provide content that works for the majority of your audience, including those with disabilities.

Did you know ...

  • There are more than two million people in the UK living with sight loss?
  • There are close to twelve million people with hearing loss of deafness in the UK?
  • Approximately 5.3 million UK adults cannot use computers due to accessibility issues

When your content aligns with WCAG, you can reach more people.

Future-Proofing Your Site in 2025

Digital accessibility helps to future-proof your site, as the importance of digital accessibility rises. When you ensure your site is accessible, you ensure it remains relevant and usable, as technology and user behaviours and needs change.

When you focus on accessibility, you can create a site that not only adapts to new devices, but works with assist devices, such as screen readers, ensuring an excellent user experience, boosting your SEO efforts.

Adapting to New Technologies

Digital accessibility on your site is improved, as you can adapt to new technologies. Accessible websites are designed to be flexible, making it faster and easier to adapt to new assist technologies, devices, and browsers, as they become available.

Improved User Experience (UX)

Digital accessibility helps ensure you provide a seamless and enjoyable user experience with clear navigation and structure, benefiting all your visitors, including those with disabilities.  Accessibility includes colour contrast, resizeable fonts, and more to improve user engagement. At the same time, search engines prefer accessible sites, improving your ranking in search results, boosting your SEO efforts.

Legal Compliance

When you focus on digital accessibility to future-proof your website, you ensure your site can be used by all visitors, including those with auditory, visual, motor, and cognitive impairments. At the same time, you comply with accessibility laws and regulations, reducing the risk of potential legal problems.
