WCAG Accessibility

WCAG 2.1 AA Standard and more

Build an Inclusive WCAG Compliant Website with ITM Digital.
Stay Compliant. Reach More Customers. Improve User Experience.

Ensure Your Website Welcomes Everyone.

Around one in five people in Ireland lives with a disability. New regulations now require business websites to comply with the latest WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility standards, ensuring that people with visual impairments and other disabilities can navigate online services more easily. Investing in accessibility also improves the overall experience for all users – making your website clearer, easier to use, and more inclusive.

At ITM Digital, we specialise in WordPress website design for Irish businesses, creating and upgrading websites to meet or exceed EU accessibility requirements. Whether you’re looking for a new accessible website or need to bring your current site up to standard, we ensure your website is compliant, user-friendly, and accessible to everyone.

Why It Matters

What Accessibility Standards Mean for Your Business?

Non-compliance risks legal complaints and potential reputational damage. Accessibility is not just a legal requirement—it’s also a commercial advantage. Over 26% of EU adults live with a disability, representing 87 million people with significant buying power and strong brand loyalty.

Accessible websites perform better across the board: they rank higher in search results, convert more users, and deliver faster, clearer user experiences for everyone.
